So contact Amazon and get it straightened out. But honestly, you actually tried to make a purchase from someone with only a 96% rating? Sorry but you really should have known better.

I'd consider that criminal behavior. And I'd go beyond just getting it straightened out (personal satisfaction) with Amazon. I'd pursue having Amazon drop the vendor if not filing criminal charges.
The devil is in the details. Nothing about the previous ratings raises any red flags, IMHO. This seller has received two negative ratings out of 80 ratings lifetime, one of which is the OP's rating. I hardly think dealing with a seller having 79 positive ratings and 1 negative is a "should have known better" situation. I'll be surprised if this doesn't have a happy ending.

This is surprising. I have had good experiences with the NAGASAWA shop on Rakuten. I bought a Pilot 912 PO and the pen came perfect with a nice note from the owner.

I wonder if there was a return by a previous buyer and the pen was put on the shelf without checking it. Then they just grabbed what appeared to be the correct box....

Well the negative feedback there now has been struckthrough and they are at 0 lifetime negatives. >.>

Get your money back and buy through J-Subculture: good prices and 100% honest and reliable. That is where I got my #3776.

I'm not saying this is the case, but this could be an example of employee theft, with a worker swapping products and putting the box back on the shelf. The vendor is an old stationery store in Japan. I'm sure they'll want to make things right.
