Hey all, I’ve a bunch of pens up for quick sale. If you’re interested in anything, have questions, or want more information/pictures, please feel free to PM me! :)

1) Geha Schulfuller Mit Reservetank, Semiflex steel nib - German school pen with a very smooth piston filling mechanism. The nib is steel and has some flex. Came to me restored, and has not been used much. The ink reserve tank seems to work well, you press the switch to get more ink when the barrel is empty. The pen has just a little wear and microscratches commensurate with age, no cracks, deep scratches, nicks or dings.
Asking $55 OBO.

2) Vintage Pelikan 400 Tortoise, 14k EF Semi-Flex nib - I love my Pelikans. I have a bunch of them. Unfortunately, this guy is a little too small for my hands. I got it because I'm in love with the tortoise colouring, but if it's not being used, then there's no point in keeping it. Came fully restored. The nib has the old alternative style logo, with the word "PELIKAN" stamped across it and "585 14 Karat" stamped underneath. Writes an EF line, and flexes to a BB I'd say, with moderate pressure. Has the vintage feed with longitudinal fins.
Asking SOLD for a beautiful vintage tortoise.

3) Lamy 27 with BB nib - This vintage user pen is a piston filler and is understated yet classy. The gold trim is shiny and the barrel is free from deep scratches, chips or dings. It has the normal microscratches for a pen of this age. It has a deliciously juicy 14k BB nib. Working flawlessly.
Asking SOLD for this nice vintage user with awesome gold nib.

4) Pelikan M20 Silvexa, OM/OB nib - Another German piston filler. The nib is really nice, very smooth and the slightest bit springy. I can’t remember if I bought it in OM or OB, but either way, the 14k nib is quite bouncy and is a pleasure to write with. There is one flaw – the connector in the piston mechanism cracked, and cannot be operated properly. You can dismantle the piston and see the crack, and those who have the means to fix it can probably do so (Sugru or something similar?), but I never got around to it.
Since it’s not fully functional, I’m asking a low SOLD for this vintage user with lovely nib.

5) Esterbrook Blue Icicle, no nib - Icicles are quite desirable colours for Esterbrooks, as they’re not super common. This particular one was made in England. It has a new sac, but it wasn't glued in properly - you'd need to slide the sac in and then shellac/glue the section. It’s an easy fix if you have the materials. No nib with this one. Lever filler.
Asking $35 OBO for a gorgeous uncommon Esterbrook.

6) Esterbrook Gray Icicle, 2668 nib – Another Icicle, this time in a matte steel grey. This one came to me restored too, and works well. I have not used it much. The nib for some reason appears to write super fat in my writing sample (probably cause I dipped it), but it’s a true medium, smooth and lovely. Lever filler.
Asking $50 OBO for this charming writer.
7) Esterbrook M2, Navy, with 9788 nib (flexible medium) - Aerometric filler, made in Canada, no scratches, dings, etc, looks great for its age. The desirable nib has a slight stubbish quality, is very smooth, and is semi-flex to me. Working flawlessly, very nice pen, reminiscent of the 50s or 60s.
Asking $70 OBO for a handsome pen with awesome nib.
Shipping is a flat $5, CONUS only. Int’l please let me know where I’d be shipping to and I’ll check rates out.
Thanks for looking! :D
