    How on earth did that ebay guy manage to get that blue pen to look so like black when it's not even a dark blue?

    OP I'm glad it worked out for you.

    If you have looked at ebay photography for a long time you will recognise a pen's colour

    Have photographed a few pens myself.

    It is about light.

    Here are some pictures I took after slightly cleaning up the pen! The nib was a tad bit scratchy but I fixed up the alignment and not it’s not too bad.

    Oops something went wrong with your first picture. It's sideways on. (If you edit it needs to go 90 degrees clockwise)
