    Default Where to buy maroon parker 45 barrel?

    Hi, My dad gave me an old parker 45 a while back and through my absolute stupidity I overtightened the barrel and cracked it. I have attempted to fix it with super glue then taping the barrel until set. This worked for a few weeks but is not working any more. I would just buy a maroon pen from eBay but I cannot purchase stuff from there. Is there any websites that sell old pen parts or is there anywhere else I should look for this part. I'm in the UK so UK sources would be really great.

    Thanks guys!

    Since you are in UK here are a couple of places you can also try which will take cash: car boot sales, flea markets, charity shops and antique shops. Parker 45's are not too uncommon so you might be lucky to find the right pen for you at a good price.

    Deb here in the forum has a web shop which accepts cards and Paypal but her website is down at the moment. Why don't you PM her to see if she has what you need? Also you might want to advertise in the "Want to Buy or Trade" here in the forum to see if any member has the part you require.

    If your problem with buying on ebay is just that you're too young and you don't have a PayPal account, do you have an older friend or a relative who you can ask to buy it and pay using their PayPal account on your behalf? Then you can give them the money

    Hi Rui,
    Good to hear from you. I retired some time ago and my spares are gone, I'm afraid.

    I might have an extra would need check? Love seeing the younger generation have an interest in fountain pens and actually use them. You be surprised how dumb we get without hand writing. A keyboard, spell check, grammar check, etc. we get complacent and lazy
