This old McNiven & Cameron pen is described as having a nib in "good order".
I ask you!

It's not a pretzel, so that's good order.....
German vintage '50-70 semi-flex stubs and those in oblique give the real thing in On Demand line variation. Modern Oblique is a waste of money for a shadow of line variation. Being too lazy to Hunt for affordable vintage oblique pens, lets you 'hunt' for line variation instead of having it.

Been burned like that once.
Someone took pics of the pen with a good nib and feed, and then shipped me one with a garbage feed and a nib with two cracks on the breather.
Fixing it is not impossible, but likely worth a lot more than the nib. Greg Minuskin can repair cracked breathers, Nobody else will even touch them. He fixed my cracked vacumatic nib, cost about $150, but it's stayed strong and the nib remains flexible.
