Hi all

Just seen what is possibly another fake Montblanc on eBay

Item number 181193738487

What do you recon fake or real, going by all the negatives for selling fake Montblancs I know what I would be guessing.

Since the pics aren't too clear, so what is it that stands out as it being a fake?

those are stock pics he is using. Not even his own. And what is a Homage pen? It is either a MB or it isn't. I never heard of a MB Meisterstuck hommage pen.

Homage pen example would be a Jinhao 159. Obvious styling queues taken from another well known pen but uses it's own company branding. To be a true homage pen, it cannot have any MB branding. Stay away from that auction. That's a fake not an homage. Seller using tricky language to intentionally mislead.

Fakes pop up hourly. If I posted a thread for every fake pen I saw on ebay I’d have 10,000 posts by now.

I'm not commenting on if it's authentic or not (although this looks to be a ridiculous attempt at a scam), but let's get our facts straight here people.

EDIT- LOL at him using a partial description from a Starwalker "Emblem in transparent cap top."
