Hi

I've just won item 330224347614 on Fleabay.

The description does not give much away as to the model. Can anyone identify it? I know I should've asked the guy, but I wasn't expecting to win it!

Also, I realise it's not going to be mint, judging by the photo and the -ve feedback, which seems to relate to the same pen?? Again, I realise I should've checked out the feedback and queried this point with him, but, like I say, it was spur of the moment and I was expecting to be outbid and, anyway, it's not a vast sum of money if this is to be my first e-bay "turkey".

This will be my third Pelikan, I already have an M200 and an M800.

Don't s'pose anyone has an all blue M805 they don't want?

(As you may've gathered, I'm starting to become a Pelikan collector!!)

Cheers, guys.

Looks like M100 to me. Tiny pen.

But not as small as the 300, tho'?

Be interested to see what the B nib's like, as both my other Pels have F nibs.

Correct - not as small as the 300. These are about the same size as the old 120/140 pens.

Finally received the pen and it is only a millimeter or two shorter than my M200s.

It has a gold nib, which is OK, but I've seen other pictures of similar pens with black nibs and they look more appropriate.

Does anyone know where I can get such a black nib and do they write as well as "normal" Pelikan nibs?

BTW, my Pelikan count is now 5: 2 x M200s, 1 x M800, this White one and an unidentified cartridge-filler.

These are nice in the sense no other Pelikan has black detail like it.
There are matching ballpoints too.

Enjoy!
