Waterford Kilbarry Ballpoint/Capless Rollerball at Costco for $33!

[jakespeed]

I was at my local Costco the other night and over by where they keep the office supplies there was a big box of Waterford Kilbarry ballpoint/capless rollerball pens for $33. They are chrome/silver and come with a nice box, papers, a ballpoint in the pen and a capless rollerball refill in the box. I thought that sounded like a good deal, and picked one up, thinking that I'd do some price checking when I got home. I found it listed on a few sites(i.e. http://www.executiveessentials.com/itemd.a...PB%20452%20GBK) and feel like I got a pretty good deal.

 

Granted, I'd much rather get a smokin' deal on a fountain pen, but for a nice pen like this I couldn't pass it up. I've tested the capless rollerball refill and like it, but haven't put it into rotation yet. I figure I may just hang onto it for when I need to give somebody a classy gift that has the appearance of being expensive.

Do You know where the pen is made?

It's a very nice pen at a great price - hard to tell from pictures the actual size, though. Can you give dimensions on it?

I don't have the pen right now, it's at work and I've been off for a few days, so I don't know the dimensions offhand. But it is a pretty good sized pen. Lengthwise it appears to be pretty normal, but it is wide, very wide. As for where it's made, I will look on the papers when I get to work and see if it says.
