Price Estimation Mont Blanc Masters for Meisterstück Firenze Alligator Leather Fountain Pen (black)

[Philipp]

Hey, I am new to this forum and I am sorry if this is not the right place to ask the following question:

 

I am looking for people experienced with Mont Blanc fountain pens to help me estimate the current market price for the Masters for Meisterstück Firenze Alligator Leather Fountain Pen (black). 

The pen is new, was never used and purchased back in 2016.

 

There are a few sites on the internet which have previously sold it but they now seem to all be out of stock. A page called Chatterley Luxuries seems to have sold it for US$3,025 (https://chatterleyluxuries.com/product/montblanc-masters-for-meisterstuck-firenze-alligator-special-edition-fountain-pen/).

 

Do you know if this price is realistic for the current market situation?

 

 

Thanks a lot for your answers already in advance

They sold it for $2600 when new. It's a somewhat desirable model but you can't expect 'new' prices for a 2016 model that technically is second hand, whether you used it or not. It's not like the Hemingway for instance, for which people will pay considerably above the original cost. 

 

Do an internet trawl to get an idea of what they sell for. I suspect you'll see huge variances on this model and ebay BIN listings will likely be top dollar (remember, they can ask what they like but it doesn't mean they ever get it).
