Being new to FPs I thought buying a 150 with a Fine nib would be perfect. For me it seems to wide. Would it be difficult to change the nib for a XF? Is it possible with the 150?

Which online stores would carry a nib for this model?

While the nib for Pelikan is interchangeable (within certain strictures) not everyone offers ready-modified nibs for all models - particularly the M150. I suspect you will need to send the nib off to be reground to an XF or XXF, which ever is your preference. There are several nibmeisters on the forum here, and several of them have rather long waiting lists. I would advise contacting each one (Mottishaw, Dillo, and Richard Binder come immediately to mind as men of good repute) to check how you think they will fit with the way you do business, and for pricing, if that is a major issue with you. Then decide on an option and pull the trigger. Hopefully you have more pens than one M150, so you will not be completely ballpoint-dependent, but, if not, try to find a Pilot Varsity at Staples or Office Max/Depot

Swisher has them available:

If you're in the U.S., you can contact Chartpak about a free nib exchange. http://chartpak.com/index2.html

I have Richard Binders url but I don't have Mottishaw or Dillo's can someone link them to me?

Also on Richards site I don't see the 150's listed. How would he handle a situation like this?

I don't list M150 nibs, but I have them in stock for $15.00 each. I can regrind them just like any other nib -- $45.00 for XF or finer.

Thanks for answering my question.

I will be sending you an E-mail shortly.
