Giving 8 inkwells for a 149!!! Who wants?????
Something hit me in the eye. Maybe it was the missing star from the lid that struck me?
Nice one ! Very funny
It would be ever so funny if it were not so damned sad. Tell me, are people that - a. dumb, b. naive, c. duplicitous?!

... same as bidding up to 25.00 US$ for this
cheapest giveaway piece of junk ...Axel
This could be a reasonably honest person who just doesn't know anything about pen and inks. I sent them a note about it.
Axel, what is that a picture of? I can't quite make it our. It looks like a cap of sorts.

That's a very cheaply made Aluminium pill box with peppermints and a painted star on it, ment as a free give away.
Montblanc gave them to their German Boutiques (only?) in 2004 for free. They showed up on eBay and due to some "nice" description bidders went up to 20.00 Euros / 25.00 US$ and even higher ..... (see item # 230260624501)

Hi Axel,
Not only Germany. I got one from the boutique here in Kuwait
Oh man this story is so sad but here goes:
About two years ago there was an ad in the local newspaper about a small town congratulating Mr. so and so for purchasing a Mercedes-Benz E200 that Mercedes-Benz Germany made it specially for him upon his request and which there are only a handful of them in the whole entire world ! ! !
Ok seems like when Mr. so and so bought the car that is what he told his unknowing relatives/peers and they were nice enough to celebrate and put an ad in the paper for him.. to my dismay, they probably soon found out that on any given day every road you turn into probably has at least a dozen of this car stuck in traffic..
