That would be perfect for me!... but I have no money so you guys have at it.

If anybody wants to buy a FPR triveni, a waterman's crusader with a modified barrel, or faber castell pitt brush pens I have one just for you!

Well, I`m sure you did the seller a big favor with this thread ;)

I hope it`ll be really expensive as I`ve just run out of budget.

 

yes, I`m mean :angry:

lol - so, what is the "prize" if someone guesses correctly, or is this all in good fun and there is no reward?

What if its a waterman's nib? I'll probably enter anyways once I get to a computer.

That was either some rich sucker or one of the people who bid on things and don't pay.

Never mind it seems like those two are REALLY dedicated to get a music nib

Wow, that got up there in price FAST! lol I do wonder who that e***t person is - 0 feedback, so zero participation on eBay until this item was listed, but he/she is willing to bid $1500 plus on a pen that seller hasn't tested so doesn't even know if the pen is in working order? :unsure: (And the seller apparently doesn't know what model the pen is or what color it might be. Did Waterman make purple pens back in the day? On my monitors, the pen just looks black....) Five more days before the bidding ends; whoever wins it better really trust USPS or ask for more secure shipping options, like via insured courier or something instead of $3.95 economy shipping!

 

Sorry to take the fun out of it by asking about the prize, gClef; I meant no harm, but you did say it was a contest, and normally that means a prize, so I had to ask. :D

 

Forgive my ignorance, but I don't know anything about this particular pen model or how rare a Waterman music nib might be. I realize that a thing is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it, but, in all reality, is this sort of price - which may be well over $2000 by the time the "bidding war" is over - normal/expected for this particular Waterman? If not, I imagine the seller is feeling quite gleeful by now!

      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
