I went a little nutso for OMAS pens (especially the celluloid ones) and want to offer some up for sale in order to get back to a more manageable number. PLEASE NOTE: These pens are typical modern OMAS meaning they are not the most robust or reliable pens made. I am describing my pens as best I can with any known or observed defects stated, but they are sold AS IS without any warranty or guarantee. Please consider this in your purchase decision. I am happy to take as many photos as you need to observe the condition of the pen.
Prices include shipping in the US. Insurance or signature confirmation or international will be extra.
OMAS Personal Computer Prototype: SOLD
OMAS 360 Blue Lucens: SOLD
OMAS Paragon Dark Burgundy (From 2008 Fashion Set) LE – This is the new, large paragon size. The pen has an 18K B nib that I recently had professionally stubbed for line variation. The pen is one of a set of 8 pens that came in a big box. There were 100 sets and this is part of set #1 (so the pen is marked as 001/100). Piston works fine. There is one of the facets of the pen along both the body and the cap that has a bit of scuffing. It looks like the side it was resting on in a storage tray. It is not too noticeable but it is there in the light if you look. $550 (NOTE: the writing sample below shows the pen before stubbing.)
OMAS 360 Burkina: This is a very unusual celluloid and you either like it or don’t. I like it, but the real star of the show is the 18K BB that was ground to a smooth CI by Mottishaw. This is one of the best writing pens I have owned. (And probably why I listed it last). The celluloid shows some scratching consistent with use, but it does not really show on this background. The piston operates just fine. There are two issues. First, there may be a slight leak where the silver section joins to the celluloid. I cannot really tell for sure. Sometimes ink creeps out when I put the pen in water to clean it. It could be accumulating from the cap during transit. Second, the rhodium plating on the clip has corroded, especially near the tip. This is a cosmetic issue, but it is not just a pit or two, but mostly missing. I have not sourced a replacement clip or had it re-plated, but neither should be too difficult to do if it bothers you. I have the boxes and papers for the pen. $700
Questions are welcomed but do not hold the pen if a firm offer comes in after your question.
Thank you for looking.

Reason: added photos
Cleaned up the den this weekend and remembered I had these lovely pens that would not mind a new home and some exercise. Let me know if you have interest.
International shipping is possible but will be expensive with a box. I can include a PVD pipe tube instead that will protect the pen and reduce costs for you.
Lots of OMAS pens for sale
