I was offered to buy a Sheaffer ebonized pearl (abalone pearl) Oversize Balance. Its 5 5/8" long and has a two tone #7 FEATHERTOUCH NIB. Pen is in excellent condition.
How much should a pen like that be worth ?

Depending on condition of course and any discolouration to the abalone in the barrel, hard to come by without any amber discolouration.

Wonderful pen and among my top 10 list of the nicest pens ever made!
Finally I added the long desired OS model to my collection a few days ago and paid a fair 325 US $ for it.
OS Balances tend to be priced very differently lately but the price should be somwhere between 300 and 500 US $ as mentioned above.
Great value if compared to most modern pens which are much more expensive!
Cheers

They are great pens and if it's a proper oversized with good colour you certainly couldn't go wrong picking it up for anything less then $200. Plus if you don't like it you could always trade it to me for some more Snorkels!
