He is really not honest... a set is a set. Your pictures are clear and he should have paid attention to those details if it matters so much to him. Even if it were just for the FP alone, he did not make a bad deal...

Would it be dodgy for you to happen to mention his ebay userid? Doesn't sound like someone I want to do business with ...

fact is, he paid too much for this set. pen street price is 180-200. rollerball and pencil are practically worthless, maybe another 50 max.

 

and he is willing to send all this back for $70?

 

just can't imagine the thought process that must be coursing through the buyer's feeble mind.

I would have thought the first model of the 1988 reintroduction of the Duofold would be higher than that.

He wanted me to send him $70.00 to make up for the set not being a set. He would have still kept the set.

Ok, I know this is probably a dumb question, but is there any way to find out from the Parker pen company itself about the set in question? (ie. is it a true set? what constituted a "set" of those two pens?)

Maja, I would assume they would have a staff member who would know. I just don't know how one would go about asking.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
