Am I wrong or is this not a Man 200 cap and nib on a Gentleman barrel

Not just the cap and nib. that looks to be a 200 feed section as well. Frankenpen, but all Waterman and that interests me.

I personally wouldn't pay $85 + $20 postage for this pen.

And this is not the first Frankenpen this seller has listed. He had another Le Man fountain pen with a very odd cap where the clip extended almost to the rim. It looked like the original cap had been broken and the bottom from another cap had been stuck on - the color between the gold bands didn't match the rest of the item!

Need to be v. careful when buying from Thailand.

so typical ebay so called "good deal" from epray, it just makes me puke

That seller is a crook, although they do deliver pens. If you want one of thier offerings, bid only at the last minute as they shill bid to get you to bump your price and then offer it afterward if you don't bite.
