FS: Sheaffer Prelude Rainbow and Visconti Michelangelo 23k Pd Dreamtouch

[mmd]

Up for sale are one Sheaffer Prelude Rainbow and one Visconti Michelangelo True Blue with 23k Pd Dreamtouch nib. I'm selling to fund my purchase of a Japanese F/EF nibbed pen so trade is preffered. I'm currently more interested in Pilot/Sailor because I already have two Platinum pens. I prefer medium-large sized pens and I'm thinking about something like Pilot Custom 823/743, Sailor 1911L/Pro Gear/KOP. Could possibly add in cash from my side if necessary.

1. Sheaffer Prelude Rainbow, M
Near mint condition, no dent/crack and only minimal microscratches. The M nib writes smoothly and a Sheaffer converter will be included. One of the most striking Prelude finishes IMO and is beautiful.
Asking $70 reduced to $60 shipped USCON

2. Visconti Michelangelo True Blue, 23k Pd Dreamtouch M nib
Mint in box, complete with all packaging. The box shows some wear. The 23k Pd nib writes smoothly and is soft with some line variation. Please note that the nib is a smaller size, not the #6 nib. The rose gold trim is nice to look at and the pen also has a magnetic cap. In general, a great introduction to Visconti's Pd nib.
MSRP $450 and I'm asking $200 shipped USCON SOLD

I will consider reasonable offer and sorry no international shipping. If you have question/some Japanese F/EF in the same price range to trade in, please let me know. :) Thanks.

The prelude is a steel nib?

Yes, two tone steel M nib .

The prelude is a steel nib?

Is there a gold nib for this model? Sorry to hijack the thread.

[mmd]

As I know, the more recently made in China Preludes can have a 14k gold nib. I have one of them and the gold nib also writes smoothly but no flex or line variation one may expect from a gold nib.

Thanks for the information.

Bump and Prelude reduced to $60.
