Hi all, I have a few Sheaffer and Parker fountain pens for sale here. The pens are used, but in good condition. I will try to describe any faults I know of. I would be happy to shoot some more detailed photos of the pens, or try out nib smoothness and line thickness, or any other requests. If there are any problems with the pens, I would be happy to refund the full cost of the pen.

Best to get the fine print and disclaimers out of the way first. Shipping will be from Australia, shipping price will be at cost. It's around $10 for small packages sent by airmail to anywhere in the world, maybe a little more for larger packages, insurance extra ($7.85 for up to $100 cover). I take no responsibility for items lost/damaged during shipping.

I would prefer Paypal bank transfers, but cannot accept credit cards. Please send me email or PM to purchase something, first person to contact gets it.

Here we go:

1. Sheaffer Triumph - $30
Blue plastic body with steel cap, white dot. Medium nib, nice writer.
Good condition, shows signs of usage. Converter included.

2. Sheaffer Prelude - Green w/ Gold Trim $15
Green body with gold trim, snap on cap. Medium nib, good condition.

3. Parker Classic Flighter Chrome Trim - $60
Nib is marked F (writes XF upside down), looks to be in perfect condition. Squeeze converter included. Pen writes well and shows obvious change in line thickness when used upside down. I know that many pens often can be used upside down, but this pen was designed particularly for this purpose and has a unique nib shape.

Is the Parker not a 180?

Actually I used to believe it was a Parker 180 as well, but I was informed that this model is actually a Parker Classic. It is almost identical as far as I could tell, but the top of the cap has a slightly different design.

It does have the same two-sided nib of the Parker 180.
