    Default Nib for current Pilot 823

    I have a new Pilot 823 with a medium nib. Seeing as they are so easy to disassemble, I'm wondering if any one knows how I could go about purchasing a FINE nib?

    Great writing pen, but I'd like to have options.

    Not looking to trade, just purchase the Fine nib.

    Pilot don't sell nibs, so you'll need to find someone selling a damaged pen as parts.

    I know there are no moderators here so I'm not sure where to post, but

    I received a private message regarding my query from a new member HalleLopez788 the gave an e-mail address of hallerobertson55@gmail who supposedly had a fine nib for sale.... I did send an e-mail and it became obvious that the reply was from someone who knew nothing about fountain pen nibs. Seems to me that there are some folks joining who are fishing. Just a heads up.

    Yes, the boards have attracted scammers. There are, sadly, a couple of reports of late of people falling for it and sending money to these fuckwits and getting taken.

    Avoid, avoid, avoid any unsolicited sale inquiries like the plague. It isn't worth it. Feel free to ask around when anything like this goes down.
