Capillary cartridge for a Rapidograph

What can I ensure that I am a writer "of the past" use that I am dependent on it? I care: Clean it regularly semi-professionally and I is also very important. Now it happened that I had no more cartridges. Could happen. So I decided to drive fast over the lunch in the city to buy a box (3 pieces - 7 francs).

was that easy but then not:

At the station I got off the bus, I thought: "... just go fast in the Loeb - not in the city down - and right back to work ". When I was but Loeb stated that they would not perform at all Rotring products ... Okay, I thought. Then there's the only way to stationery and confidence: Kollbrunner. I ran down to the clock tower. When Kollbrunner I was told: We unfortunately just to build the store, stick with the artistic needs is closed until late March. Yes, hello? I was to the Ryfflihof. That's what I did, but my fears were confirmed: Of course leads Coop no Fineliner and consequently none capillary cartridge to ... the salmon-color artist's specialty store, I was dismissed with the statement "... Rotring is a German company, it is more and more difficult ! Supplies become, also needs today really no one "? I was referred to the Stauffacher-Papeterie - there aha there's a stationery, the course had nothing and said:" Oh you know I could order it to you maybe ... "I politely declined and went desperately still in the world, but even there: None

So it was that day NOT possible to get at the heart of the city of Bern, a capillary cartridge for a Rapidograph Fine.. ... I'm really really super nice

the evening came to my mind, that we indeed have a Gümligen papete - small and dusty - but still ... "Capillary cartridge Yes, how many?" I bought two packs extra there eventually. Hamster purchase. Aussorgen for two to three years ... I complained to the Seller the suffering of my odyssey. She found it did not astonish them, that I was told they could no longer order these things. "You know, the shops in the city are not dependent on their customers. - It is indeed equal to the next across the threshold suffers the service, the statement no longer available, is already therefore a joke because the office supply has a large dealer. , which ALL SUPPLIED. They look the same times after the computer ... Sure there are still these cartridges, today another 900 units were in the main camp in Switzerland.

Well. I have learned something.

And as my god used to say: "You know, you're just still a bit of the past may sometimes be an advantage, but sometimes not so.."
