Selling off some pens I don't use much. Shipping charges will be $5.80 by USPS small flat-rate box to the continental US. I'm not offering international shipping at this time. Shipping combined as long as it all fits! All pens are restored and in working condition.
1. WITHDRAWN Bexley Elegancia Blue -- Steel Bexley Fine or Medium nib--your choice. I can also scare up an EF if you don't mind it being Knox-branded. Includes converter and Bexley box. $65
2. WITHDRAWN Bexley Elegancia Red -- Steel Bexley Fine or Medium nib--your choice. I can also scare up an EF if you don't mind it being Knox-branded. Includes converter and Bexley Box. $65
3. SOLD Sheaffer Oversize Balance with early hard rubber grip section. Fine to Extra Fine 14K nib. Restored (of course). Condition is fair. Good user. $65
4. SOLD Sheaffer PFM-III in excellent condition. Seller produced a receipt saying this was restored by Ron Zorn of Mainstreetpens last year. Writes with a Medium line (maybe Medium-Fine). $195
5. WITHDRAWN Sheaffer Crest Lever Filler, "Lady" version, I think (slightly shorter nib). Fair condition at best. Has visulated "stripes" in section rather than the ordinary visulated section. Writes with a Fine line. $25 ($5 discount if purchased with #6)
6. WITHDRAWN Sheaffer Touchdown "fat" version, burgundy barrel with "sentinel" style cap. Cap has some dents, blind cap is polished smooth. Writes with a Medium line. Great writer. BTW, the caps of #5 and #6 are interchangeable, and #6 looks great with #5's cap. $65
7. Sheaffer Prelude in an uncommon (at least I've never heard of another) baby blue lacquer. Made in USA. Nice condition except for a pinhole or two in the finish near the end. Comes with converter (which has a slightly shortened handle). $39
8. Sheaffer Balance, small "Lady" size. This was a plunger filler that I converted to eyedropper back in my early days. Otherwise, nice condition with no brassing. Fine 14K nib. The section is tight enough and the threads fine enough, that you won't need any grease with this one. Priced for the nib. $35
9. WITHDRAWN Parker VS blue. Excellent condition, Fine 14K nib with clear Lucite feed and earlier all-aluminum button assembly. Has a silicone sac in it, so store it upright if inked. This is from my collection (not one of my user pens). $85
10. WITHDRAWN Parker VS rust. Excellent condition (no discoloration near the nib), Fine 14K nib with opaque black feed and later aluminum button in molded plastic collar. Has a silicone sac in it, so store it upright if inked. This is from my collection (not one of my user pens). $85[/s]
11. WITHDRAWN Parker VS gray. Very Good condition with slight discoloration near the nib. Earlier all-aluminum button assembly. Fine 14K nib with clear Lucite feed. Has a latex sac. $75.
12. WITHDRAWN Parker 75 Cisele (sterling silver). Very Good condition with slight brassing near the top of the clip. Flat tassies. Earlier model with 0 mark. Correct #66 medium nib. Plastic section threads. Comes with an aftermarket (not Parker) converter, but you can easily get a Parker squeeze converter for it. $110
13. SOLD Pilot Cavalier Red, with Fine nib. The small painted "Cavalier" script near the base of the barrel is mostly worn off, but otherwise it's excellent. No converter, but I will toss in a half-dozen Pilot black cartridges that you can refill. $20
14. Pilot Vanishing Point "stealth" model with 14K gold nib with ruthenium plating. Clip removed. Richard Binder wouldn't remove the clips of the stealth model because there are some small blems in the finish where the clip was, but if you liked the idea of a Vanishing Point but knew you couldn't deal with a clip being in the way, then this is for you. $90
15. Ranga Premium (blue) Ebonite "Duofold" pen. Very Good condition. Converter from eyedropper to Blow-Filler, but still holds rather a lot of ink. Comes with a German-made Knox nib that I've custom fit to it. Good writer! Not a "quick draw" pen, though, because the cap has lots of threads, and they work--takes awhile to screw all the way on and off. Comes with a bulb syringe so that you don't have to use your breath (works superbly, BTW). $40
