Orfew, what can i say except WOW! :)

Thanks, I am very pleased with it for three reasons.

First, it works flawlessly. Secondly, it has the earlier "ski slope" feed. Thirdly, it only costs me 200.00.

Wow again! That is a sumgai for sure.

 

The striated green montblancs are a grail for me (I love the 142/144/145/chopin size pens). I have looked at several with this colouring. I have only seen one that was in very good condition, with little if any ambering to the barrel. That was $1400.

Just added a Balzac fine point to my modest Montblanc collection. It's a gorgeous pen with a beautifully smooth nib.

Wow, orfew! That is amazing. Where did you find that at such an amazing price? I have a 146 in great condition, but it cost me $1500.

Thanks! I found it in the classifieds section of another pen board.

I bought a Heritage 1912 with M nib today. Really like this pen very very much.

Congrats on a great pen. I write with mine nearly everyday.

Thanks Kai. I have been looking for a 264 ever since Jar posted his great review almost a year ago. Have you seen it?

My most recent was a Mont Blanc Solitaire 925 Silver Doue which I found at a house sale just lying there on the cashier's table. After a bit of friendly haggling she accepted my offer plus $1.00 so she could say she won the haggle. For the price I paid I was in no mood to protest. Clean as a whistle, not a scratch on the barrel, took it home and polished up the sterling and it looked brand new. No box or papers, of course, but I can live with that!

 

Sorry no pic, thought I had one but can't locate.

A friend of mine acquired this chrome and jade Mont Blanc rollerball in Switzerland. I've never seen one like it and any information you can provide would be much appreciated.post-76209-0-96238100-1383682149_thumb.jpg

Your friend acquired a very nice pen, a Czar Nikolai I.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
