Lamy 2000 - Replacement Nib and other newbie questions

[Algester]

 

QUOTE

The nib and feed just push out backwards through the back of the section.

 

Hmm, has anyone tried this? I did and no luck at all. The nib and feed stayed firmly in place no matter how vigorously I pushed. Even trying to knock it (gently) out failed. I'd be keen on hearing further info if anyone has it.

 

I fully disassembled my Lamy 2000 except the Piston Mechanism what I can say is that you can push the nib from the rear and the nib will be removed then put it into a place where it will not be lost... speaking of which though I do not want to deal with my local Lamy distributor because I found out how inefficient they are is it possible to have the nib replaced for free or I really have to pay? I originally ordered an EF but the EF never came 1 year later... so I was kind of forced to get a fine nib and the nib costs half of the pen yeesh...

I'll not tell about my experience of the time with my Lamy 2000 I'll end up just flaming my local distributor for the best

Did you realize that you are attempting to revive a thread that has been lying dormant for close to 4 years?

It is unlikely that the original poster is still visiting this tread to find an answer to his 2007 question.

And here I am, five years later, still learning from this older thread. So glad these gems of wisdom remain available for future reference!

I highly recommend contacting Lamy service directly. I did a couple days ago -- I have the same problem you do though I'm in Europe -- and they said they'd swap out the F nib and give me an EF, no problem, no charge! I have to pay the postage both ways, but there you go.

How much was postage? And that's really nice of them. Where and when did you get your 2000?
