Abstract: We answer several questions of V. Tkav{c}uk from [Point-countable $pi$-bases in first countable and similar spaces, Fund. Math. 186 (2005), pp. 55--69.] by showing that (1) there is a ZFC example of a first countable, 0-dimensional Hausdorff space with no point-countable $pi$-base (in fact, the order of any $pi$-base of the space is at least $alep{h}_{o}mega$); (2) if there is a $kappa$-Suslin line then there is a first countable GO space of cardinality $kapp{a}^{+}$ in which the order of any $pi$-base is at least $kappa$; (3) it is consistent to have a first countable, hereditarily Lindel" of regular space having uncountable $pi$-weight and $omeg{a}_1$ as a caliber (of course, such a space cannot have a point-countable $pi$-base).
