    Well this summer my cousin is visiting Vietnam. I went there last summer and I remember going to many big pen stores. Too bad I wasn't a spinner back then. sad.gif Well i want to know if there are any good pens there, so I can give my cousin a list and some money. The currency from here to there is really big, so $1 USD is 15k there. 15k there isn't like $15,000 though. Maybe some else can explain, but I know I can get some pens for cheap over there. I wanna know what kind of pens though. I saw the list under the "Master List of Pens" thing but I think there are more, people aren't just updating it.

    1k (dong) over there is the equivalent to our dollar. So they have 999 dong only stores, basically.
    And last time I visited (a few years ago) I didnt see many spinning worthy pens. They resembled pens that are given out as promotion IMO.

    And you're not going to find pens in the country side. Just enjoy the sights.

    I've spoken to chautran a couple times about this, and he says that there really isn't that many good spinning pens there, or at least not any that you would be familiar with. Chautran makes a bunch of personal mods cause parts don't exist there to many mods with tutorials out there.

    Try asking people who live in Vietnam. There must be some nice pens over there.

    You can buy this pen with about 16k to 28k ( huge gap).
    And there're lots of Chinese pen ( good grip ) there.
    But actually we don't have many good pens, so don't be dissapponted

    One of the good thing of pens in VIetnam is the price of them... wink.gif
    Almost are really cheap... I say almost... because if you compare them to other pens in other countries, they would be very much cheaper... so u you can buy so many pens to make mod in Vietnam without too much money ^^
    1$ now in VietNam is about 17000VND wink.gif
