Group of affordable pens

[mmd]

I have finally made up my mind for another big housekeeping event. As a result, I'm offering a big group of affordable pens in wide variety. Each one of them has different condition so please be patient and read the individual descriptions. The prices do not include shipping. Ship to USCON only. I can ship with USPS first class or priority mail with insurance so the shipping will vary depending on the total. First class starts about $2.5 and Priority starts like $6 without insurance.
