Fake too. The clearer indication of being a counterfeit is the black (solid) star in the MB logo stamped inside the box.

Fake Jules Verne on eBay?

 

The listing says that it's black and the pictures seem to match that description; but as far as I know the "real" version is a breathtakingly beautiful blue. Also as far as I know, the Jules Verne signature is engraved and not filled with goldish paint. 2 ratings for this seller, and 8 bids so far on the pen.

 

I've never posted a link here, so here's the item number in case my attempt to link fails: 110573353613

Fake Jules Verne?

Yes, it's a fake. And the other pen (Chopin) is a fake as well.

What surprises me with this one is that luseverino2009 doesn't say Montblanc in any of his descriptions... but still has the white star at the top of each pen, and no one seems to be doing anything about it, how come? At the least there at infringements on the trademarks, right? Of course he downplays the star by now showing it straight on... or his fake diamond on the top... but its undeniably there.

 

Just curious,

Stephen

 

Every single pen he is selling is a counterfeit. Not one is real. He even has a Bergman rollerball and other WEs and LEs.

 

I filed a report with Ebay.

 

Good catch.

This is how he advertises a pen that resembles the Thomas Mann pen.

Looks fake, especially the nib, but what do I know.

Over to the experts.

 

Fake MB ?

 

Crazy pen! Most fakes try to mimic an original. This guy seems to have gone out on a limb and started his own series! Desperate!

 

Will gladly retract and apologise, if I am wrong.

It's more fake than a 3 dollars bill. The biggest clue is the "nib marked 'iridium point germany'" :roflmho:

And quite odd how the seller seems proud of that nib, not only providing a nice close-up, but also highlighting it in the description.

Fake MB ?

The body looks like a very nice Hero from China that I saw once. There are 2 immediate clues to its falseness. One is the clip, which is folded metal. It has been photographed in such a way as to try to hide it, but it is sort of obvious. The dead giveaway is the nib. This would be a very nice $10 pen if it was sold for what it actually is.

I have contacted the seller regarding this pen. They have a good bay feedback rating - maybe they don't realise it is a fake Mont Blanc..

Hi,

 

Could any of you take a look at this pen, and let me know if it is a fake or genuine Mont Blanc.

 

Thank you.

 

Mont Blanc

I think it is real. Not particularly nice condition. The nib appears to be a left foot oblique, so suitable for a left handed writer.
