First of all I'm no photographer so forgive the images.

As the wheel of time turns I find my desire to acquire new pens grows (and I want a new pair of headphones). Unfortunately paying for any new acquisitions means I have to let others go.

All prices include fees. I will only take payment via Paypal.

Delivery:
UK £3 Recorded delivery
International £7/$12 international signed for.

PM me for any questions or to purchase.
Questions don't hold the pen. I
"I want to buy" messages hold the pen for 24 hours, if payment hasn't been received after that point it will be relisted.

1. Lamy Rialto OB £30/$50

The pen is only lightly used and the ink window is clear, piston filler works fine. There is an inscription for "I Becker" on the barrel. Comes with a Lamy box and leaflet but I have no idea if these are original to the pen though.

2. Pelikan 140 BB £60/$96

A lovely nib but the pen is too small for me. Filling system works fine, good transparency to the barrel, some brassing.

3. Parker Senior Duofold (blue) B nib. Aero filler. £50/$85

Good clean pen with the original working 'u' bar filling system.

4. Waterman Expert II M nib. £30/$50

Clean and hardly used. Sorry I have no converter for the pen.

5. Eberhard Faber Perma Point. F nib (the imprint says medium but from a vintage British perspective I'd consider it fine). £35/$60

Another clean pen, professionally resacced by Eckiethump. Some brassing to the clip.

6. Kaweco V14S OB £40/$68

Piston filler - works well. Lush nib. Still has its original price sticker (which I forgot to photograph - I'll add a photo later).

Pens for sale part the deux:

7. Eversharp Skyline demi with stub nib. £55/$95

The barrel is clean and free from usage marks beyond the usual for the age but the cap is obviously not cosmetically the best and also has some bite marks and a ding in the clip.

It's the nib that sells this pen though. It is a lovely stub (Disclaimer: the writing sample is Annie's writing not mine).

8. Eversharp Skyline F nib. £30/$50

A couple of dings in the clip and brassing to the lever (which is a little loose but nothing to worry about), general usage marks. Filling system works well.

This pen has a smooth fine point what has obviously met a hard surface at some point and been straightened (there is a crinkle in the nib) but this doesn't affect performance.

9. Copper Esterbrook J with 2668 nib. SOLD

Good condition, professionally resacced.

10. Green Parker 51 Fine nib £35/$60

Clean pen with a working aero "press 4 times" bar filler. Slight marks to the cap.

10. Black Parker 51 Broad nib. SOLD
Some marks to the cap and slight brassing on the clip. Barrel has slight usage marks (the big mark is a smudge of dirt)
"press 4 times" bar filler (aero) works well.

11. Parker 51 Medium nib. £20/$35

This pen has a slight split to the cap that I could not capture with the camera, in fact it is hard to see at all, there is also brassing to the clip. The nib can be a little finicky about rotation - hence the price.

12. Eversharp Skyline Medium nib £30/$50

Another smooth Skyline nib. Brassing to the lever. Ding in the clip. Barrel has numerous slight scratches due to use. Sorry about the state of the nib - the pen is currently inked.

New prices:

Rialto £22/$35
Expert £20/$32
Eberhard Faber - I've looked around the web and realised I overpriced this: £20/$32
Skyline Demi (stub) £40/$64
Skyline (F nib) £22/$35
P 51 (M nib) £17/$27
Goldfink £20/$32

I'm afraid I have no control over Royal Mail pricing (and I'm already taking loss on shipping).

Delivery:
UK £3 Recorded delivery
International £7/$12 international tracked and signed for.

For those who want more reassurance - I'm known by the same user name on FPN and have sold many pens over the years with no issues.

I was asked a question about the Eberhard today and I thought it may be useful to put the answer up here:

Capped 13.1cm
uncapped 12.2cm
Posted 16.3cm
Width 1.1cm
Weight (empty): 14.2g

Handling it again tonight I feel I should mention the lever is slightly loose but I never had that tightened as it is a potentially very difficult piece of work and it doesn't affect the performance of the filling system.
