Red o'Red?
Maybe you should start working on that savings account again, Davey.
Cheers,

May Your Force Be With You
If I mention a supplier, I am ONLY affiliated if I EXPLICITLY say so.
Thanks for the tip!
That is awesome and I don't usually go for red pens.

I'm not crazy about red pens, but this looks pretty cool.

Well John Mottishaw at Classic Fountain Pens (www.nibs.com) have last year's M600 Green o' Green Special Edition for US$396. I would expect a similar price for the Ruby Red. Freight from USA to my door is $50 so US$446 all up. AUD-USD is running at over parity so the net rate is at parity so that would be also the price to me. A pretty penny I know but thats what I spend my money on. If Richard Binder is going to stock this pen I might just buy the body and cap only from him as I really don't need more nibs, currently I have a choice of 21 nibs for my M6XX sized Pelikans (M250 and M4XX nibs will fit in a M6XX pen but not vice versa).
I missed seeing your savings account quip to me in the original post - $450 is doable for me but $3K+ for the Alfred Hitchcock is not...

Update:
I emailed my normal US retailers of new Pelikans yesterday.
Got one reply saying that it will called Red o' Red in the states will be available sometime in September they will sell it for US$436
My only debate now is which nib. Maybe a broad as this is about the only size I don't have in M6XX nibs
Sweeet looking pen - and a broad M600 is a very nice one to have.....but man, that's a steep price.
