Just bought this pen on Ebay for $38 USD. I thought that was cheap but I suppose it all depends on condition. Seller said excellent condition and photos confirmed that (the best photos can of course).
It is my second Sheaffer. My other is a Sheaffer Targa. What do others than of this pen and the price I paid?

Nice Imperial, gold nib. Let us know what you think of it when you get it. A little wider than the Targa in the section IIRC.

Obviously, it all depends on condition, but a very fair price. That is one of the first pens I purchased when I started, from the wonderful Teri Morris at Peyton Street Pens (http://www.peytonstreetpens.com/). It was NOS and worked fine, but even better when Pendleton Brown smoothed the nib. I haven't used it much lately, but a very solid performer. I see she still has one, and you did well (hers is a new pen, of course).

Enjoy.

Also, remember when I predicted you would not be able to stop buying pens? :)

I get the point Jon. That video is very annoying let alone embarrassing. How do you remove it?

I bought a 444 recently for approx $15 more from a forum member. It was over rated and over priced. Regret that buy.
