I just won a new old style M200 with gray pearl finish... this makes 3 pelikans in the arsenal... and I am left wondering... How did this happen??? Love these pens. I now have a M215 (this pen is something special) and M100(I love this pen)and now an M200... coming from Germany so the wait time will be a little long. It was only $47.00 usd plus shipping.
Now how do I get in touch with Chartpack? (if that is right) about a nib exchange? The 200 has a medium and I like the fine on the 215. I will see how I like the 200w/medium and then decide if I want to exchange.

Congratulations on the new addition (or should i say addiction ) to your Pelikan collection!

Call Chartpak and request a nib exchange. Turnaround is about a week and they have excellent customer service.

Just send it to the address with a letter requesting the nib you want and they will send it back to you free.

Enjoy your new Pelikan!

Just wait till you are up and about and can come north to see my 1000.

How are you feeling?

Congratulations. It's a long and satisfying road. Wait until you get your first vintage Pelikan.

Hey there, JM.

Well, you'll like the little grey, I can assure you. I have one and it's among my favorites.

Definitely try the nib first because the M on my old style blue writes more like a fine. I had thought I'd be changing out the nib also but was pleasantly surprised with the fine line on the pen. But my first old style (a grey like you're getting) had a medium and it was truly medium. I eventually put a custom nib in it. The original medium was very smooth and wonderful, I just wanted something different.

you can also email chartpak - at their website they have a button on the left side of the screen that links to their email. They respond very quickly. Great folks.
