M800 Green Demonstrator Value?

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I have a M800 green demonstrator, but is not the original green LE with W. Germany on the cap, but newer one. Just says Germany and has new style Pelikan logo on top. It appears the old LEs are worth $600-$800, how much would this one be worth?

 

Thanks,

Douglas

Do you have a picture of the pen that you describe?

PELIKAN - Too many birds in the flock to count. My pen chest has proven to be a most fertile breeding ground.

Last couple of these (used, but in excellent condition) that I recall seeing sell went in the $400-450 range if I recall correctly.

Best Regards, greg

Don't feel bad. I'm old; I'm meh about most things.

This is the M800 green demo from 1992. Not "The Collector's Edition" but likely one of the pens from the run that was sold in Italy and France. They I nly differ from the collectors edition by the lack of a certificate which was an artificial addition made by the US distributor. The absence of West Germany stamping just indicates this came later in the run. 1992 was the final transition point where pens were predominantly being stamped Germany. I think something around $500-600 isn't unreasonable if you find the right buyer. These are desirable pieces. Good luck.

      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
