I’ve never owned or used a fountain pen before, but I saw that these are less than $6 a piece and refill cartridges look pretty cheap too.

Are these worth buying for a first timer or are they an invitation to a souring experience for a noob?

    Thanks for the feedback. I bought a fine nib version since I made the post and I have been using it on a regular graph composition notebook and I see that it bleeds through and has a lot of ghosting. I have no reference for how a fountain pen could write so I guess its alright as far as feel goes. I did order a notebook made by Midori from Amazon. It will be my first experience with a higher quality paper with the Preppy.
