Pen Shop


Pen Shop Male: Hi. Good morning.

Female 1: Good morning.

Male: How are you doing?

Female 1: Very well, yourself?

Male: I can't complain.

Female 1: Not a day like today you better not.

Male: It's beautiful. I should be on the golf course though. Do you guys carry any fountain pens, you know like the old fashioned?

Female 1: Yeah. I've got a Parker.

Male: Like I'm not, I don't know the brands. Oh and that's got the ink cartridge right there?

Female 1: Cartridge. You want the one with the bottle of ink?

Male: Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

Female 1: Ok.

Male: Real old style.

Female 1: Yeah, she's going to have a look and see if there's any in the back. They are expensive ones though.

Male: Ok, well we'll make that decision when we see the price. Do you mind if I just put this down?

Female 1: No, go ahead. I don' t think my kids know what a fountain pen is.

Male: That's a different kind, isn't it?

Female 2: No.

Male: That has the cartridge as well?

Female 2: Yes, it has the cartridge as well. Yeah.

Male: Ok, It's a gift for a friend of mine that is quite a writer and I know that they would appreciate that.

Female 2: Do you know where to go? Paul's Pen Shop or the Vancouver Pen Shop.

Male: Where's Paul's at?

Female 2: They are close together. I don't have Paul's address but?

Male: That's ok, I can look that up. They are downtown I assume.

Female 2: Yeah, Vancouver Pen Shop is 512 West Hastings. I'll give you their number.

Male: Thank you. Maybe I'll go down on the weekend if they're open. Do you think they're open on the weekend?

Female 2: Umhum.

Male: Down on West Hastings there. Thank you so much.

Female 2: You're very welcome. They are affiliated with Paul's. I think his wife works there and he's got his place but if they ain't got it you'll not get them anywhere.

Female 1: They have pens that are worth seven or eight thousand dollars.

Female 2: Oh my gosh.

Male: Oh my goodness.

Female 1: Can you imagine having a $7,000 pen on the golf course and you're at the end of the thing and there's nothing there?

Male: Unbelievable. Thank you very much for all your help. Have a good day.

Female 2: You're very welcome.

Female 2: You too enjoy that sun.

Male: Will do.

End.
