Another great selection. It all looks good. Of course, with David's eye catching photography, even a Pilot Varsity would look like a world class writing instrument.

Harry, my friend...

I don't... quite... know... how... to... say... it.

OK. Out with it then.

That one was claimed and PP'd last night. They're hoppin' off the shelves and i can only do the "sold" signs every day or two.

There are some other PFM's on the website ;-)

Wish i could buy these things by the cartfull (cartful?) but each pen is its own individual "find".

kindest regards

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the nice response. By far the strongest two day opening I've had on the Updates, even better than the 400 pen Update from last summer.

All the Plum "51" pen on the website (and one of the couple I hadn't yet listed) were grabbed. I think the page now indicates all that have been sold. Next couple days starts the oh-so-fun process of safely shipping the darn things out.

regards

david

Damn, missed it by “that” much. I want a working, fine nibbed PFM so bad, and I have to keep the price reasonable, I thought I might have found it. (It really disgusts me, I had one I was watching but work got in the way and I didn’t check back until the auction was over, no bids at all, I think I may have been the only one to notice it as he did not describe it at all correctly.)

Oh well, next time I hope to be there earlier, this time I had not checked in here for nearly 2 days.

Hi guys,

Just a bit of latest update news...


I appreciate the orders. Think i've learned i need to post Big Updates at end of hospital shift run not start of one. I've packed and shipped about half the pens with plan to get next half out day or so. Sorry it has taken week or so to ship. I didn't expect this big a run from a "smallish" update and fell behind a bit. All pens are safe, being wrapped lovingly and will be off shortly.

kindest regards

Hi Guys,

Well, 2/3rds shipped, remainder i hope tomorrow. Here is what is gone from the latest update along with a few charmers already on the website (keep in mind the Update of 60 pens is not the majority of available pens).

More pens can be found on the sales page of www.vacumania.com

MAIN SALES PAGE

What has sold- which has i believe topped the one week "claimed" volume from last summer's 400 pen update- is shown below in this pic modified from the Update teaser. I appreciate the interest. I'm almost caught up. Really! wallbash.gif

Hi,

Just a quick note.

Everyone's pens have shipped, save for one whose check from Canada arrived just now. All folks should have pens in short order.

Few more were claimed last couple days.







Probably couple others, but that's what i recall offhand.

Hi,

Well orders continue to trickle (cannot say, "stream") in and a bunch more have been claimed. This is good as it will free up space in my sales tray for a perhaps earlier-than-usual follow-up Major Update. Main Sales Page (which links to Update and to other sales pages) can be found at MAIN SALES PAGE Will need week or so to process new orders received next few days as i'll be in and out of town. Thanks.

Anyway, the following were claimed:

Vacumatic Senior Maxima with somewhat uncommon so-called Jeweler's style cap-band



Vacumatic Standard (first generation Vac) Emerald Pearl



Vacumatic Major Azure Blue 3rd Gen



Vacumatic Junior Azure Blue 3rd Gen



Vacumatic Major Double Jewel 2nd Gen Emerald Pearl



Wahl Symphony first style mint stickered



Modern-ish Sheaffer Legacy



Parker 51 Turquoise GF cap

Wish to thank all for a nice response to the Update. December and Early January were frantic. Not complaining smile.gif

A bunch more have sold, per below. Expect this will be last "update of the Update" before doing the next ... Update. Usually space 'em 3-5 months apart, but seem to have enough material of reasonable quality to jump ahead to another fresh-pens page.

Anyway, you can find... everything... on the vacumania home page.

http://www.vacumania.com

Sold of late are:

Modern-ish Sheaffer Legacy



Sheaffer Snorkel in not-so-common Periwinkle



Sheaffer Snorkel Mandarin top-n-bottom



Sheaffer Balance Roseglow Standard Stubby in Candian Trim (did i mention this one already? Maybe)



Sheaffer Balance oversized.



Sheaffer Balance another oversized



Yes, another oversized Sheaffer Balance



Mint Parker 51 Aerometric Burgundy



Mint Parker 51 Aerometric Midnite Blue



Parker 51 Vacumatic Demi Cedar (one year-ish model)



Parker Vacumatic Black Major



Parker Vacumatic Silver Pearl "Stacked Coin Band"



And another Parker Vacumatic Silver Pearl "Stacked Coin band"



Finally, the big guy- Parker Vacumatic with "vacumatic cap-band"- did close
