Classifieds section here and/or at other pen forums?
Sir,
I was only asking as I don't see many listed on here, so I assumed there was not much interest.

There’s a saying about “assume.”Quote:

Bespoke pens? Do you take measurements of my hand, study my writing angle and ergonomics and all that?
What makes a pen bespoke? This is an honest inquiry with no harm intended. I am just unfamiliar with the phrase, is all.
Generally it refers to pens made to order. You enage with the maker around the style, material, furniture and sometimes the nib. You go into a queue of varying lengths (expect around a year for popular makers) and at the end of it all you get a pen that is unique.
Bespoke pens by their very nature aren't common. So I wouldn't expect many to be up for sale at one time also people go to quite some effort to buy them in the first place waiting months for them to be made so I imagine they are rarely impulse purchase.Quote:

As others have said put them up if you want to sell them but bare in mind the above so it may take longer to find a new home them.
