Hi all,
Up for sale is a very worn 'user' pen. Scratches, dings, a worn clip, a repaired piston mechanism (that now has a slightly larger gap w/ barrel) that's currently missing the last 1.5mm or so of the piston rod (doesn't really affect function, but could be glued back on to improve feel). To its credit, the thing still looks and feels awesome. Oh, and the fine nib was dropped and bent--I've adjusted it some, and it writes o.k again (no hard starts, skipping, not scratchy etc. etc) , but there's a visible kink that should probably be dealt with (nothing a half-experienced nib repairmen couldn't deal with). In short, it's totally usable, quite reliable, but could use some TLC. Lamy USA has told me the cost of replacing the piston mechanism and filling knob is $25. I'm listing this for $85 shipped to the US. Comes box, cloth and papers. If you're interested or have questions, send me an email at dabantur@gmail.com
