Iguanasell pops up on the first search page at A$720 including shipping. They are reliable suppliers in my experience. Looking further may do better.

Goulet Pens have the Black Amber on special (close-out sale) right now for US$409. Add shipping and do the currency conversion, and that works out a little over AU$600. Still too rich for my blood, though - and I don't know (didn't check) whether they have the full range of nib options.

 

[Just checked, and they have an M and F nib pen for US$350 right now in their "bottom shelf" section.]

Lamy al star pacific with a fine nib.

It is loaded with lamy blue black ink.

Just bought the pen a few days ago.

The pen looks nothing like in the pictures so you have to see it to believe it!

Isn't the Al-Star Coffee a great brown? I have one too. One of my favorite Lamys.

Using this 'Nexx' with the usual medium nib, filled with Cross brand blue ink.

I think this is the cheapest LAMY pen, about £1 or 2 less than the Safari where I am.

      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
