[WTS] [US] Mostly modern pens-Sailor, Wahl, Diplomat, Stipula, Pilot, Selmy
($105 - $310)
Hey there folks! Hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend! :-)
Smaller batch of pens today. These are mostly modern pens with one singular vintage pen added in for good measure. Every pen in this batch is a fantastic writer! They write so well in fact, that if I used modern pens more, I wouldn’t be letting these pens go. I simply don’t use them very much. I appreciate you taking a look!

On to the pens!
[A2] Diplomat Elox cartridge converter pen w/14k Fine Nib $300+shipping
The Elox is a really cool pen! The thing I like about Diplomats in general are their unique style and their nibs(and their insanely satisfying snap caps!). Diplomat must tune these nibs at the factory because every single Diplomat nib I’ve written with has been really, really good! This pen being no exception to that rule and is an excellent writer! It’s perfectly wet with just enough feel to know you’re writing on paper. Ugh….such an awesome nib! If you like Diplomats steel nibs, boy, are you in for a treat! I simply cannot overstate how well this nib writes. It is a real treat! If I used modern pens more often, this pen wouldn’t be going anywhere!! This pen is in brand new condition and is also very expensive if you purchase it new with a gold nib. You can get a significant discount here….
[B] Selmy Maki-e pen. Cartridge converter w/Fine SS Schmidt nib $110+shipping
This pen was my first foray into Maki-e. Let me tell you, this pen impressed me! So much so that it was a tough decision to let it go. It’s unbelievable to me that you can get a pen of this quality for this comparative low price! It’s beautiful, in great condition, and has a wonderful nib! The gold and silver powder used in the design of this pen really pops. Take a look at the pics in the gallery. A gorgeous pen that’s sure to please when put to paper!
[B] Selmy Tang Urushi pen. Cartridge converter w/Fine SS Schmidt nib $110+shipping
This is an entry level Urushi pen with a beautiful finish. The Urushi on a pen doesn’t know its retail price….this is a great piece of you’re looking to try out Urushi to see how it feels, see if your skin reacts, etc. The Fine nib writes gloriously! A great pen!
[D-nib swap] Stipula Tocco-Ferro SE. piston filling pen w/SS Med nib $125+shipping
This is a special edition Tocco-Ferro in orange. I didn’t like the nib that was on the pen when I received it, so I fitted a Medium nib to it. Pen writes very nicely and is in good condition save for a few spots here and there. This particular pen is #290-351. If you missed out on this pen or have been eyeing it, here’s a chance to purchase it at a much lower price than I’ve seen elsewhere.

[D for vintage] Wahl Tempoint in BCHR w/14k Fine nib $100+shipping
This is a Wahl in black chased hard rubber with a fantastic nib! This pen would be a great introduction to vintage pens if you’re so inclined to try one out. The best thing about this pen is its nib. It writes beautifully and is in pretty good shape to be over a hundred years old! There is some oxidation present to the hard rubber but overall, this is a beautiful pen! Find out why some folks are head over heels in love with vintage nibs, and, perhaps most importantly, do it without breaking the bank!
SOLD SOLD SOLD[A2] Pilot Custom Heritage 92 in transparent blue w/14k FM nib piston filling pen $140+shipping
This CH92 is a really nice pen. This is a pen that needs no introduction to the FP community at large. The nib is absolutely excellent, however I’ve only filled it once since I purchased it brand new. It is in absolutely perfect, new condition, with not a single micro-scratch to be found. I guess the transparent color models of this pen have been discontinued by Pilot…? If you wanted this pen and didn’t make the purchase, here’s your chance to go back in time and get, what is essentially a brand new pen! Awesome pen with an awesome nib!
SOLD SOLD SOLD[A2] Sailor PGS Blue Dwarf cartridge converter pen w/14k Music nib $170+shipping
I love the pleasant feedback of Sailor nibs. I also really love their music nibs. Sailor music nibs are nothing more than a factory stub/italic. I have several that will never leave my collection due to my affinity for stubs/italics. This is a gorgeous bright blue pen! If you like the color blue, this is the pen for you! Pen has been inked only twice and is in superb condition with no handling marks or desk wear of any kind, just as you’d receive it from a retailer. A really gorgeous, “happy” pen!
