Sunday Fleabay Picks For June 29, 2014


OcalaFlGuy

Recommended Posts

Disclaimer; I am not a pen expert. I know just enough to make me dangerous. These are listings *I* find

interesting or potential deals I think May happen. I do Look Closely at the Same pics and listing descriptions you can see before I include them on the list. I would not Knowingly put a pen on the list with serious damage or damage not noted by the seller. Generally, not at all knowingly. If you feel I missed some damage to a pen Please post what you think you see here and I'll gladly go back, look it over again and make any necessary edits to the list.

If you yourself find a Sunday listing and notice it's Not on the list here, feel free to ask me why either in a post or backchannel if you wish.

So of course, the same usual Fleabay Caveat Emptor applies here. At the very least you're looking at listings that 4 more eyes from someone who isn't a complete pen idiot has looked pretty closely at first.

For a good portion of the list, you may very well have enough time to dash a quick question or two off to a seller and maybe get an answer back prior to it closing if need be. It wouldn't hurt to try.

As always, it's Really Nice to hear back here if you are able to get something from this list.

Good Luck!

I can't make the listings up, I can only pick from what's there.

We also have a good many UK members who will be glad to pick up your slack I'm sure. ;)

 

 

#47 doesn't seem to be there anymore.

 

Still there. Formatting issue. Fixed. Thanks Mardi.

Other than that, thanks for the listing Bruce! :)

Thanks for your efforts with this list, it is really very useful.

 

A request - if you are trawling the US listings anyway, could you highlight those that will shipping outside the country. There is little doubt that the US sellers are less likely to ship internationally than sellers in any other country.

 

Thanks for the listings. The UK shipping rates are killing me :mellow:

 

The actual cost of shipping a typical pen UK to USA (i.e. stamp and ebay charge) signed for is £9.80 - £10.80 or maybe $17 - $19.

 

For the reverse journey, UK buyers are usually quoted $44 by US sellers.

 

Just to put your angst into perspective.

Nothing for me this week (I've got some very specific requirements that I'm on the lookout for) but I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate these listings. I for one have been checking them out every week in an attempt to further my fountain pen education.

It's quite nice out here in the sunshine...

I know how really hard it is sometimes to find a way to buy a US pen, when you live in the UK. I usually just give up all hope and watch someone else buy it.

 

However, I'm visiting FL at the beginning of September, so if anyone has the same problem in the US and wants a UK shipping address, you are welcome to PM me. I am 100% trustworthy. I even tell people if they give me too much change.....

Darn it I really like that #11 Pilot 74 and he doesn't even ship to the UK............... Sigh :(

 

My only criteria are Fine gold nibs. Am I asking too much?

A request - if you are trawling the US listings anyway, could you highlight those that will shipping outside the country. There is little doubt that the US sellers are less likely to ship internationally than sellers in any other country.

 

 

I'm searching Ebay.com

 

Sorry but that's not going to be possible. This is already taking 5+ hours a week as it is now. For me to dig for shipping details would add greatly to that. I am Already noting where the pens are located (at least if they are outside the U.S.) and higher shipping charges if I see them. My net connections aren't the best to start with where I am. Just getting the list Done as it is now, has been difficult a couple times. IMO, there has been a nearly equal spread of UK items to USA items.

You are an evil man, Bruce! I'm now bidding on #20, and watching #22. I have been using a Waterman Phileas ballpoint for about 5 years now.

 

There are far too many temptations in these links. Thanks! :thumbup:

This is so much fun to look at even if I can't afford to buy anything. Thanks for spending the time.

I want #35 and the only thing I can afford is the shipping! :puddle:

The Pelikan ruby M320 is a nice price, but perhaps not a compelling one. There is a listing for the pen as a Buy-It-Now for $250 shipped, and at that, it's also a "Best Offer" listing.

 

What's absolutely gobsmacking is what the orange marmalade M320 is going for these days ! If anyone's on the fence over the ruby M320, that listing's price might well push them over the edge into a purchase.

I find watching them close even after I do the list big fun. I love guessing the closes. It's like The Pen's Price Is Right! :lticaptd:

 

There is also our own Thomas Bickman's 10-12 pens that ALL close Bam, Bam, Bam, one after the other starting at 8:30 Eastern Sunday nights.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
