I've got no advice on where to buy good fountain pens, but I have to wonder if the daughter really thinks it would be as nice as her mom does. I got my share of them as graduation gifts, and my parents thought nice pens were a nice gift, as does my wife. I thought they were completely pointless (not to mention a major pain in the case of fountain pens -- I hate writing with them), and they got stuck in a drawer where they never saw the light of day again.
Perhaps the daughter really would appreciate a nice fountain pen, but I would hate to spend that kind of money on something that would quickly be forgotten.
