EDIT EDIT: For those who are still having trouble getting tickets, go through the Sydney Opera House site (https://www.sydneyoperahouse.com/), NOT the Sydney Symphony Site.

The Sydney Symphony Orchestra site was not ready for this pre-sale.

EDIT: Promo Code was needed to add-to-cart. Forgot that we had to do this step in all of the excitement.

Site kept crashing, but we were able to get tickets after 40+ minutes of constant refreshing!

It'll be our first show at the Opera House!

For those loyal to GameOne.ph, pre-orders for OOT game is now live on their site.

No mention if it's foil;

No other Zelda/OOT items yet.

No mention if it's the special Foil cover or not (not a deal breaker for me, just as an FYI).

Just in-case you didn't get the memo:

Eastwest is raising the Visa Platinum fees:

• Over Credit Limit Fee from PHP700 to PHP800.
• Annual Fee from PHP3600 to PHP4000 per year.
• Supplementary Card Fee from PHP1800 to PHP2000 per year.

Extra laces and 'Mamba' sticker are a nice touch.

From Titan (Philippines).

Released 5 hours ago on SNKRS Asia and still fully available.

Not really surprising given the overall release saturation and relatively high retail price.

But for PHP11995 ~ $194USD, I'm mainly copping in hopes the leather is better than the 2016 release.

New Pen and Ink Day!

A friend just came back from a trip in Toyko, and they were able to get us the Rainy Day set from Ancora. Love the details of the Lecoule pen (MF steel nib) and converter!

TL;DR - Pilot 823 in Fine, great pen at a great price!

I’ve been eyeing the Pilot Custom 823 for what feels like an eternity.

I actually had a few opportunities to pick it up during past trips to Japan and Singapore, but every single time, other limited edition or collaboration pens “somehow” got in the way. I kept putting off the 823, but it never left my wishlist.

Fast forward to this past weekend, and I finally managed to snag one for a great price! Pilot Philippines was a sponsor at a local pen show, and they had a deal that was simply too good to pass up (approximately 30% off from the retail price). The clear demonstrator was my first choice, even though my wife suggested I get the Amber, but it was sold out by the time we arrived at the event.

It has the perfect amount of heft without feeling fatiguing, and it sits so comfortably in the hand. "Smoothness is smooth" is the only way to describe it when writing with it.

My question: The pen came as the gift set box, which includes a the 70mL bottle of Pilot Black ink. I’m just curious what everyone else did with theirs? (DeAtramentis Document Black and Platinum Carbon Black have been my go-to black inks lately, so I’m trying to decide what to do with this giant bottle of Pilot Black).

Please exercise due diligence regardless of where or from whom you purchase your timepieces.
