8/11 Reduction (Green to 60 + shipping, Red/Brown to 80 + shipping)
8/20 Reduction (Green to 50 Shipped [in US], Red has been sold)

The included shipping on the green one is USPS Priority Mail Insured to all US States/Territories.

Here are the two. Both have some degree of plating loss (mostly on the levers), both have been restored by Write on Time (Sean Nicholson​) in the past month out of the bunch I sent him. Both have a long breather tube installed (better filling, better flow)

The green one (which seems black-ish here, but it's like a deep forest green on both the body, section and cap dome) has a 14K ~Fine nib that's a bit on the firm side.

The Reddish-Brown one is more brown on the barrel/section, and more red on the cap dome has what I would call a Semi-Flex EF~Fine, the write sample is shown at a light to normal hand as I'm more light handed and I don't push nibs as hard as you would need to push on a Noodler's Flex (which in my opinion requires an extreme amount of pressure compared to vintage nibs)

I am allowed to transfer the 1 year restoration warranty in the event that the sac needs to be re-done.

Looking at 60 USD + shipping for the green one (firm fine), and 80 USD + shipping on the brown/red skyline (semi-flex EF~F).
