This one might need the sack replaced, but that shouldn’t be too much trouble on a lever filling pen like this one. Even if you had to send it off to be repaired it’d still be a good deal. (~$40 at time of posting)
STUB NIB 1940 Parker Vacumatic Fountain Pen ~ SHADOW WAVE ~ SILVER PEARL STRIPES  STUB NIB 1940 Parker Vacumatic Fountain Pen ~ SHADOW WAVE ~ SILVER PEARL STRIPES
You’re not going to get a bargain here, but seeing a Vac Shadow Wave in this nice of condition with a nib like that is not something you run into all that often. Very, very nice.

    That Wahl Doric is gorgeous! Outta my league, though.

    dam it – when you guys list these items that I’ve picked out beforehand to bid on, you run up the price on it!

        Yes there is, you listed my Pelikan M620 Shanghai and the final price I paid was USD$70 greater than the next highest price on ebay over a two year period.

          Merely a coincidence.

            When I find one of my last two M620 on eBay I will let you know and you can list it just as a test…
