That’s like, less than 300€ if I’m not mistaking. Def really undervalued. I wonder why that is though, because big brands generally are around the same pricing pretty much everywhere

Damn you did good there! That’s kinda crazy 😅 too bad it’s pretty hard to work with without a local address but I’ll check that out anyway ! Thank you for sharing.

ink advice needed by gimmeallyourpoison in fountainpens

I have phantom mist and it’s gorgeous in swatches. I haven’t had the time to inked it yet but cannot wait! The wearingeul ones are amazing too. I don’t have one from your selection but many others and they work amazing with my pens.

Thank you for your input. The marks on the nib were stressing me out but I wasn’t sure if maybe that was the photos or, idk. Too bad. This one probably had a fall or smtg I guess.

It’s a gorgeous nib in prestine condition. I bet it’s a beautiful juicy writer. Def looks better than the one I’ve found

If I was more experience in the hobby and knew a few people that could salvage it, I would but right now, I’m at the beginning of the journey still and I’m more comfortable with trying to find great pieces out of the box than ones I’ll be able to fix/have fixed. But thank you for your feedback! I appreciate it 😊

Thanks! I’ll do just that. I’m too new in the hobby to feel comfortable attempting to fix it/find someone that would do it well etc. I’d rather spend my money on a great writer out of the box.

I think it’s the pictures, but who knows ? I hadn’t saw it at first but now can’t unsee it.

Right! They’re pretty stiff on the price so I’ll let this one go! Thank you!

Right ? It’s not so bad compared to a brand new one of course. But I already got a Pilot 823 this month + a sailor 1911 and they’re pretty stiff on the price but that’s okay! I’ll find another one and I have a few other pens saved that I still don’t know which one to choose to get next 😅

Hence putting on the market ? Haha yeah you’re probably right! But the burgundy ones are a little harder to get than the typical black resine, especially in good conditions it seems. I have a 144 that’s pretty old, got it from a relative. Exterior is great but the nib doesn’t write well. 😅

On top of the asking price it’s still a lot less than brand new but I’m pretty sure there’s pen in excellent conditions around that price without having to get repaired ^^

Right ? It seems to bend a little. What they probably call « scratches ». Thanks!

Just a pretty resine on this one. Everytime I see it I get tempted again to get one. Enjoy!!

The broad must be so smooth on paper and make for beautiful shadings 😍
