Winners to our Letters to Santa Giveaway + Holiday Hours

As you can imagine, Santa had quite a few letters to read. He was quite taken by the number of handwritten letters that came in this year. It was a welcome sight for his old eyes.

Thank you to everyone who sent us a letter to forward to Santa. The jolly old elf was overjoyed at reading your notes.

Santa said it was difficult to choose just one letter as the winner of the giveaway. So many of you wrote such lovely letters! After much contemplation, he gave us the one letter that was picked as the winner.

The lucky winner of the Letters to Santa Giveaway is Kata from Canada! Congratulations! Santa will be on his way to pick up the pen she wished for, the Sailor Pro Gear Four Seasons "Winter" fountain pen.

We also picked our 5 runner ups that will receive a Goldspot Prize Pack, which includes the one prize pack we set aside for the Rafflecopter giveaway we were running on social media. The winners are :

• Karen J.
• Susan J.
• Ken A.
• Alec P.
• Jeff L. (our Rafflecopter winner)

These winners will be receiving the items pictured below :

If you're curious to know what all the good little boys and girls asked for as their top Christmas wish pen, here are some observations :

Most boys and girls wished for a Visconti pen over all other brands. The #1 most wished-for pen was a Visconti Homo Sapiens fountain pen.

Pelikan came in a close second, OMAS third & fourth place shared by Pilot & Sailor.

Other notable pens that were asked for :

• OMAS Arco Brown Celluloid - in the Ogiva & Arte Italiana styles
• Pelikan M1000
• Visconti Divina Elegance
• Pilot Vanishing Point Raden
• Pelikan M805 Stresemann
• Namiki Yukari Moonlight

Thank you again to everyone who wrote in. This was quite an enjoyable giveaway that we most likely will be running next year as well.

We hope everyone will be enjoying family & friends this holiday season. Our office will be closed early on Christmas Eve, December 24th. We will be closed on Friday, Christmas Day, and will resume business on Monday, December 28th. We will also be closed on Friday, January 1st.

Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa & Happy New Year! Best of health, happiness and fortune to you all!

Letters to Santa Giveaway

Ho Ho Ho...

What if you could ask Santa for any pen your heart desires, and he left it neatly wrapped under your tree on Christmas morning?

That's the idea of our December giveaway. Write a letter to Santa Claus (or Santa Pens) and mail it to our office address at :

Goldspot Pens

ATTN: Letters to Santa Giveaway

1230 Highway 34

Aberdeen, NJ 07747

Tell Santa which pen is the one that you would treasure in your stocking. It can be anything, really. Shoot for the stars (or snowflakes . . . pen humor).

Mail it to us as soon as possible before he begins his flight preparations on the 22nd of December. We'll make sure that the big man in the North Pole will get your letter.

One letter will be picked the winner of this giveaway, and the wish on that letter will be granted.

"Wait a sec, they'll probably pick the person who is asking for a Pilot Metropolitan for Christmas."

- A Rightfully Skeptical Person

Not so. We've got a BIG budget for this giveaway. Our biggest yet. Bigger than the last two giveaways combined!

In addition to the grand price wish, we're also sending pen stocking stuffer prize packages to 3 lucky runner-ups.

Our Pen Stocking Stuffer Prize Pack includes :
(1) Jinhao 599A Goldspot Demonstrator Pen
(1) 2mL Ink Sample
(1) Rhodia Notepad
(1) Parker Leather Single Pen Case

We're hoping you would spread the word about this giveaway, so we're giving away an additional Pen Stocking Stuffer Prize Pack using this Rafflecopter form below:

Win an Entire Pen Collection Giveaway

Hey All,

We haven't run a good giveaway in some time, and it's a shame, because we love giving away pen goodies to all of our fans, followers and customers. Let's change that.

10 sexy fountain pens are up for grabs.

Starting today (Sept 17th) and running until Sept 30th, we're gathering entries for our biggest giveaway yet - a collection of pens from JinHao, along with Diamine ink and a Rhodia pad. We're raffling off this complete, 10-pen collection to one lucky winner that will be randomly chosen when the official deadline for entries closes.

This set of JinHao pens we're giving away has something for everyone. Ornate, classic, modern and stylish designs. No one pen is the same. Some come with converters, some do not. Chances are, you may not be using all 10 pens at one time, so this may not be an issue. They do take standard international converters or international ink cartridges. The winner will have the ability to choose the color of Diamine ink and whether it will be bottled or cartridges.

We will contact the winner and allow (7) days for them to respond with a shipping address and preference of ink. If we do not receive a response from the winner, we will draw a second time and allow for another (7) days, and so on and so forth.

Entering the giveaway is easy. We're hosting it directly our Goldspot Pens Giveaway Page. Be sure to follow the instructions on how you can earn extra entries.

• Sign up to our e-mail newsletter list.
• "Like" our page on facebook.
• Follow us on Twitter
• Tweet a message promoting the giveaway
• Follow us on Pinterest

Like I mentioned, all of this is on our official Giveaway page, so click on over to our link below and throw your name into the hat.

InCoWriMo 2015 Giveaway Results

Hey All,

Firstly, I wanted to mention how awesome all of you are who sent in a piece of written correspondence to us during this giveaway. We were delightfully surprised about how creative and personal each letter or postcard was. We were also floored by the hundreds of entries we received from around the world. From our neighbors up North in Canada to the Philippines, the UK, Spain, Norway and down under in Australia, it is truly astounding what the internet can accomplish in terms of a global following.

Here's a sampling of the letters we received that we posted to our new @goldspotpens Instagram account earlier today.

Sorting through all the hundreds of #incowrimo entries today. Will announce the winner shortly. #letters #snailmail #handwriting #calligraphy

With today being the deadline for entries, we eagerly awaited the mailman this morning in anticipate of a few stragglers. The last entries came in and the great drawing began. Instead of picking from a hat, which could have led to a bias in shape, size or texture of the entry, we counted out every piece of mail, shuffled the pile, and ran a random number generator that picked the winning entry.

And the Winner of the Noodler's Neponset and Waterman Expert III fountain pen is...

Congrats Marie E. of Madison, WI! We'll reach out to you with the good news and to confirm your address to receive your pen-tastic goodies.

Thanks to everyone for entering and participating in International Correspondence Writing Month.

If anyone would like to send us mail during the rest of the year, we'd love to be your pen pal! Please feel free to send us letters (and offerings of chocolate or jerky) to :

Holiday Shipping Schedule

Now, on to business. Christmas Eve is upon us, which is the last possible day to either receive a USPS package or UPS express shipment. Here is a schedule leading up to Christmas Eve and how much our "Get it by Xmas" shipping will cost.

For the remainder of today, Thursday, December 18th, you can take advantage of our Free Shipping Day promotion where there is no minimum to get free shipping with your order. That means any refill or pen ships with $0 shipping charge. This party ends at 11:59pm.

Once Friday, the 19th comes, we are offering a special "Get it by XMAS" shipping method. Simply add any "Quick Ship" items to your cart and select the "Get it by XMAS" shipping method during checkout. We guarantee that your order will be expedited for shipment and we will try our best to get them to you on or before December 24th.

The "Quick Ship" items are available for immediate shipping, but sometimes inventory can run out quicker than our website can be updated. If this is the case, we will contact you as soon as possible to make alternative arrangements or give you the option to cancel. Although our engraving team is fast at work, churning out scores of engraved pens and gifts every day this month, if you select engraving on your order at this time, it may add an additional day to the shipping time. Visit our website for more details about our shipping schedule.

You will still be able to get free shipping on your order of $49 or more, but there is no guarantee that the economy shipping would be able to make the delivery prior to Christmas.

As always, call, chat or e-mail if you have a question or need help with placing your order. Happy Holidays!
