I warned you...

UPDATE 02 MAY 2013: Prices lowered. Pens not sold by Monday, May 6, will sadly go to ebay.

Thanks to Azizah @GourmetPens and our pact to not purchase any pens or pen related items until May, I'm currently out of my mind. If I can't buy, I might as well sell.

All pens are from my personal collection. They all write well but have fallen out of rotation. It's time for them to find some lovin'.

All prices include insured USPS Priority Mail shipping to the continental United States. If you're somewhere else and absolutely have to have one of these pens, we can talk, but international USPS shipping rates skyrocketed in January and are, well, embarrassing.

Payment via PayPal either as a no-fee gift or with an additional 3% to cover PayPal fees.

Any questions at all, just let me know: eric at fpgeeks.com

It's one of those ridiculously expensive pens isn't it? You bought it, didn't you. :jaw:

No I don't know what he bought but I think he may have broken another price barrier.

Sorry that the Parker went so fast.

But surely the Stealth VP is a Vader pen ? ! ?

Hi Will!

The Waterman safety might be spoken for... I'm waiting for a response to an email.

The nib is flexible from Fine to Broad.

Cheers!

The real question is what are you getting money for? Would it happen to be a pink and black enameled sterling silver?

Prices lowered on remaining pens.

These pens must go. Any pens not sold here in the community by Monday will be forced to walk the plank at eBay =(

I do hope the remaining will sell well and go to happy homes. They are each so lovely and have taken you a lot of time and passion to acquire.

Hey, I know it's unlikely, but is the Danitrio Mikado mentioned above still available—that perhaps didn't fall into the shark infested waters of the bay?
