Hi, i'm pretty new to this forum. i've noticed in the trading/buying section there's this thing about Penwish and Pendolsa. i'm wondering, are they actual companies or just a group of ppl who made the website? and when you buy from them do you pay with paypal or send money or what? o.o also also, what's the difference between the two?

Penwish is an online store where you can buy pens. I think it's owned by a single person (correct me if I'm wrong).
They take major credit cards and paypal I think. http://www.penwish.com/ Penwish is also located in the USA.
Pendolsa (PDS) is a Korean store owned by Mr. LSC. http://www.penspinstore.com/ -

Penwish is owned and run by Eric and his wife. He also supplies LSC with some stuff in return for PDS merchandise.

I recommend pendolsa ( penspinstore.com ) cos it has a huge variety and awesome pens with quickish shipping. but at Penwish you can get a bag of random spinning pens for $5 and you can get some really awesome pens

NO, Eric as in Eric. Also, since u live in Canada, shipping from the PDS store is 23 dollars. I wouldn't recommend ordering from there unless you are really into penspinning and plan on making a $100+ order, since that's the only way to make the shipping really worth it.

I love Penwish, especially with the free shipping. I use Penwish for all my pens and am a strong supporter of the site. Actually Penwish is the noly site I use. But I want some pendolsa r-stics and the r-stics that are on penwish aren't quite heavy enough. Maybe there's a way to add some weight to the penwish r-stic. I wish I could buy tips and grips alone.

you can buy the tips and grips by themselves. -

On penwish!? You have to be kidding me. I can be so retarded sometimes.
What tips are used in the pendolsa r-stic, then (http://www.penspinstore.com/shop/step1.php?number=980) -
Date: Fri, Feb 13 2009 20:04:11
those aren't tips they are weights. the body of the rstick on pds is more of a metal tube than a pen body. you have a better chance of making it by going to home depot than staples

I see. So there's no official tutorial on how to make the r-stic exactly how pendolsa does? -

Really? I searched the site and can't find where to order a random bag.

Penwish doesn't have random bags anymore.

the korean pds store is very reliable
everyone gets there pen less than a week of their order
so i wouldn't say pds store is unreliable but
their is certainly a problem in Mr.lsc in oversea sales. he needs to get a better system. -

I agree. I'm not buying from there until that happens. $100 for around 3 pens is just too much for me. -

3 pens for 100? what the hell are you buying? -

Actually they were $30. but I'm in zone 3 and it added 60 something dollars on. The prices aren't too bad themselves. It's just shipping. -

Shipping for zone 3 is only $23 -

Still, though. It's quite a bit.
