Leonardo pen (which is a brand I dislike now, even though I still own one),

Their Aurora prices are great no doubt. May I ask why you dislike Leonardo pens now. Why I am asking is because I am trying to decide between a new Leonardo Pen (the new black piston one) and a Pelikan M800/M600.

I talked about it in another thread, from here to here.

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

One of the mystery offers is: I'm a chocolate version of a German classic. I'm great for your keeping, but when I arrive, I'll also be ready for gifting.

 

This description may indicate it's a Lamy 2000 brown limited edition.

I think that's a pretty good guess!

Sheer speculation but it could also be a Pelikan M200 brown marble.

Chocolate Frog (used to be green?) for $350 USD.

Brown Black M800 from 2019?

I was thinking about that, but there is another offer for $300:

 

Witches' Brew

You may call me 
"Grün and Weiss".
I'm nothing naughty,
and everything nice.

 

that I speculate would be a Pelikan.

according to redditors, the Vampire box had Aurora Optima Caleidoscopio Luce Verde and a Lamy Imporium.  Not a bad combo for that price.

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @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

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
