I don't think I have ever seen you post anything that could get you banned here. Wait... didn't you use a Paper Mate ballpoint a few times?

Oh, the horror!!!!!!
Manny, that's really neat handwriting of yours. Even with a gel pen, you can write that beautiful with the red ink! I really need to slow down when I write, and work on my penmanship.

This is a 0.7mm fine. I like the color.

Of the twelve M620 City Series pens I only crested $500 twice, being for the San Francisco and the Athens pens, most of the others were in the high $200s to mid $300s. You probably have a better chance in the US as a fair percentage of people will only ship domestically. Happy hunting...

Ah, I have long admired your collection of pens, especially the 12 city birds. I enjoyed the pictures you took for the pens, very nice! I have been looking on eBay for some weeks, it just so seems the Berlin and Stockholm would disappear when I started looking for them, they were sold in new just a little earlier this year... But I get it now, they would come, when the time is right.
Thank for the tip, Manny, that definitely helps. talking about gel pens, I like the Pilot G-2 pens, I also like the Pentel Energel 0.7mm.
Great variations in writing styles; I like to see how people can change their hands with different pens.

I was just thinking about my comment that you may have better luck hunting them down in the States. Looking at my purchase records I sourced 11 of the 12 pens from eBay the other from Pentrace, countries of vendors - USA 5, France 1, Hungary 2, Japan 1, Germany 2, Singapore 1. I love stats
Ahh, Noodler's pen! I only tried to buy one of their vintage design flex pen, it never worked right, no matter what I tried. What a disappointment! lessons learned, now if I need a flexible pen, I buy a vintage flexible pen.
What an accomplishment, you must have been putting a lot of effort in hunting those pens!! My goal is only getting two of the pens, and yet the search is exhausting. I tried some US pen traders, even tried search in other country ebays, not fruitful so far. Then I tried to look in Ashian market and found two Berlins, one in Japan one in Taiwan, none is shipping overseas... What luck!
But thanks for mentioning the source of your pens. I never knew that pentrace has a pen market. I will try in there as well.
