New Pelikan M800 Grand Place Arriving In February

[Nibs.com]

Just announced, the Pelikan M800 Souverän Grand Place revives a rich swirling design previously available only in the smaller M600 series. This special edition pen is being produced for a limited time only, but we have managed to secure a small number for our customers - 18k solid gold nib sizes are Extra Fine, Fine, Medium, Broad, and, exclusively through us here, Extra Broad. Retail $850, our price $680. Pre-orders are now being accepted - you will not be charged until your pen arrives and is ready to ship to you.

Wow. I think I am going to own several of these.....

[PAKMAN]

OH NO! I swore that after the Burnt Orange I was through buying M800 size Pelikans! I already have 10 and the 600 size Grand Place. But I better start saving my pennies, because I don't think I can resist this one!

I'm totally with you. This is an unfair sneak attack on my bank account, not to mention my marriage! And I was still working on justification for buying a Brilliant Blue M805 this year.

 

I think having a M620 Grande Place may actually increase my vulnerability to the M800 version. And I had no hint that this was coming.

Exactly, what you said, David.

The blue special edition didn't appeal to me but this one looks great. Tempting…

There's a second thread about the pen that includes a link to nibs.com with more pictures (http://www.nibs.com/pelikan-m800-grand-place-special-edition.htm) so I'm adding it here.

You said it! Just when I thought I was done, LE's came at me with this sneak attack.

One more in the same boat!

 

My 2016 "To Do" List (so far)

 

1. Buy an 805 Brilliant Blue

2. Buy an 800 Grand Place

3. Fend off divorce

Alas it won't be alighting in my coup - I must save for my Toledo.... I must I must I must save for my Toledo.....

So what's the best place to order this from?

[dms525]

And it's not just Pelikans pooping on my budget. That's on top of the Owl pellets!

 

I had already celebrated the New Year by ordering an OMAS Ogiva Arco Brown from Novelli, and within an hour of placing that order, on a Sunday evening, no less, I got an email from Jonella at CFP that the Nakaya Portable Cigar with tame-sukashi Owl in Aka- and Kuro-tamenuri I had ordered many months ago had come in, and here's an invoice to approve.

 

If I weren't so happy about getting these pens that I had dreamed of for so long, I would be really upset!

Brutha, I feel your pain!

[Mulrich]

I started a Massdrop for the 2016 Pelikans. I'm generally not a Massdrop fan but they previously produced good deals on Pelikans.

Brutha, I feel your pain!

 

 

Your expression of sympathy is gratefully acknowledged.

Thanks so much for starting that Massdrop. I got in on the m400 White Tortoise drop and it would be great to pick up the Grand Place too. Beautiful pen.
