Hi everybody,
Today I'm offering from my collection a nice teal / dark turquoise Parker 45 Arrow CT (all plastic body and cap, with chrome trim). It has a firm medium steel nib that writes smoothly, with a wet ink flow. It is in very decent condition, with only a couple of minor nibbles and scratches on the cap. The barrel is very clean. The section is free from the rippling deformation common in these pens.
I will also include a new Parker slide converter and a box of Parker Quink cartridges (washable blue).
These are great little pens that I consider a must in every pen collection.
This PIF will stay open until next Monday 3rd November, and will close at 7pm. If you'd like a chance of owning this neat little pen, just reply in this thread saying why you'd like it. I'll pick the winner at random.
Please note: there have been a lot of PIFs recently restricted to CONUS. I really do understand the reasons, but just to redress the balance and give everyone else a chance of winning something, I'm offering this PIF worldwide, excluding CONUS. I'll pay all shipping costs.

This is not an entry!
I am in the US, but I thought I'd say that's a nice pen!
Good Luck to all those who enter!

This is exactly like the pen that I had a few years ago and my brother lost it . So it would be a perfect replacement and every day writer .The smoothness and flow of these pens is amazing.

I'm keen for this pay it forward but I already have a 45. But I know how good they are and that's really why I'd like to win it. Would be nice to try the medium nib compared to my fine too. Am I being greedy? Fantastic pen that I hope gets enjoyed for many years.

Hi Migo,
I've love to put my name in for this one. I got a Parker 51 a while ago and it's quickly become a favourite, I'd love to try a different Parker!
Thanks for the opportunity.

I would love to enter. I haven't dipped my toes too far into the land of vintage pens yet & have never tried a Parker.

I have recently been introduced to Parker 45's, and it is now one of my favourite pens. :clap2: They always perform well, they are easy to clean, and I just love this colour. It would go so well with my PI Syo-ro ink. I don't have one with a medium nib.

Wanted to own a vintage Parker for quite some time and I just began my journey of fountain pens in the recent few months :)

Very generous PIF migo984!
I agree with you that these are awesome pens...
My P45 was the pen that sparked my FP craze. They are perfect for noobs, easy to maintain & smooth writers. I have 4 FPs at the moment & my P45 is my favourite, I find every excuse to write with it.
Please enter me...I'd like to gift this to a certain newbie friend if I win.
Thank you
Sadiq
