Hi there,

I had a quick look on eBay... the prices range from US$249 (item no. 160274529667) for a red one, US$389 (item no. 160274529667) for a green and US$395 (item no. 140253482526) for a blue one. Hope that helps!

Regards,
Soki

Not sure how prices go in Australia. The American prices tend to look much lower than in Britain. Recently bought an identical pen to yours new/unused (discontinued stock bought up) around £300. This was from a retailer; I expect E-Bay is going to be cheaper.

I haven't sold anything on this network before, but did give away some Lamy cartridges. I went to the Classifieds and Marketwatch (under Miscellaneous) and clicked on New Post..... Hope that works smile.gif

Yes, post an ad in the Pens for Sale section (near the bottom of the opening page) and say its condition, that you have the original box & papers(if you have), a picture or 3, how much you want for it, how you wish to be paid (eg PayPal), where you will ship to & at what extra cost.
Say how you can be contacted, Private Message, email etc

Look at a few other ads to get the idea.

Good luck...it's a very nice pen...I have a black one.

You may find you get offers before you post it there...check your messages!

On ebay this would make around £90-120 ($170-$230), depending on condition... Watermans tend to make better prices when offered in Europe - French and German buyers seem to pay a lot more than US buyers, in my experience.

I've sold a number of Man 200s over the last couple of years and my peak price was £145 for a blue caviar finish in absolutely mint condition - sticker with price was still attached and the caviar finish is more sought after than this marble green. Maybe try it here for $295 to see if someone is desperate for this finish and then work your way down in price... Over $300 would be a daft price to pay.

Good luck!

£85 inlcuding postage for a mint mineral red.... (Around $156)

That's what I just paid for a mint pen via buy-it-now on ebay.....
