[WTB] Special Platinum 3776 and Sailor Realo models

Hello! Instead of making individual posts, I’m putting a list up so I don’t forget to cross out pens I have already purchased :)

I’m looking to buy or trade for the following Platinum 3776 pens with F/EF nibs, ideally A1 condition but open to looking at A2:

- Nagasawa Chaska Blue Silver
- Nagasawa Rokko Shichidanka
- Wagner 20th Anniversary Magic Serpent
- Astro
- Bluebird or Chai Latte Shape of Heart

For Sailor Realo models, I’m generally open to any cute collab that involves shimmery and translucent material! Here are a few I have wanted to get but missed out on:

- Cinnamoroll
- Amagaeru

CONUS but if there is a compelling deal (i.e. you have 2 or more of the pens I don’t have) I’d be open to do international shipping)

[WTS CONUS] Sailors, Leonardos, Glass Pens - Priority for DC Pen Show

Clearing out more stuff as I prepare for the DC Pen Show. Unless you have a special edition Sailor PG Realo or Platinum 3776, I will have to say no to trading :( Unless you confirm with me tonight (I’m driving to VA sometime in the morning), I won’t have the boxes on me for the sake of carrying light. However, I can always mail them after (buyer pays shipping costs).

Verification: https://imgur.com/a/cmMIRbg

Format for these will be name of pen + nib size + condition + price

1st pic

Platinum 3776 Black F nib - B - dip tested ($140) I was going to frankenpen something with this but ended up not doing so

Platinum 3776 Peppermint Tea F nib - A1 - super firm about this being trade only as I spent way too much money on this, please don’t message me about this unless you’re ok with paying like $750 thank you

Sailor PG Iris Nebula M nib - A2/B - inked once (trade only)

Sailor 1911L 21K Transparent Purple M nib - bought this as A1/A2 but haven’t used it (trade)

Conklin 1898 Ken’s Mix 14K B nib - A1/A2 - dip tested ($380 obo)

Franklin Christoph Italian Ice with SIG F nib - C because the tines are too tight on the nib and needs work, otherwise A2 for the body ($160)

Leonardo MZG 2.0 Red Marble steel EF nib - A1 never used ($375)

Leonardo Cigar Blue, Green, White Skeleton with #8 EF steel nib - B- inked a few times ($360)

Leonardo MZG Girasole with Stylosuite Xtra Fine X-Wing Harpoon nib modification A2 - ($450) Beautiful pen, I just don’t use flex nibs often if at all so this has just been sitting in a pen case

Maker pen with Mudkip card F nib - A2 - inked once ($150) — bought this from a maker and didn’t have the greatest experience so I don’t feel good using it, someone please take it off my hands

EndlessPens x Nahvalur Nautilus Verdigris Muse Rose Gold Plated steel F nib - A2/B - inked twice ($185) beautiful writer, I just don’t resonate with the colorway anymore

Esterbrook Estie Evergreen EF nib - A2 - inked once ($220 or trade) I also have a spare M nib that I can swap out!

3rd and 4th pic (feel free to ask for more photos)

Glassophy Re:Born Pink Butterfly Glass Pen F nib with special UV reactive ink - A1 ($450) totally impulse purchased this because people around me were buying stuff up real quick and I couldn’t make up my mind 😔 this was the last butterfly glass pen on her table and she only visits NY and SF Pen shows I believe!

Glassophy Glass Pen FM nib - A1 ($350) this has a cute soda float glass nib but I’m not a big fan of penguins (the flan hat is sosososo cute though) so I want this to go to someone who would appreciate it more. The grip section is very comfy and has a lil cherry so you know where to hold it!

All rules apply, please comment before DMing. Prioritizing DCPS first so I can avoid shipping!! Feel free to let me know if you’re interested and not at DCPS, I can reach out if no one has claimed the pen(s) after Sunday! Thanks so much for looking!!!

[WTT - NY Stationery Fest] Sailors, a few Esties, various steel nib pens

Verification

Hello! I’ll be at Stationery Fest on Thursday and Friday, hoping to trade/consolidate some pens for a trade. I don’t have their boxes with me for the sake of saving space in my backpack, but let me know if you’d like the packaging (I can always mail it to you when I’m back home). I would like if I’m able to trade off multiple pens to price match on something I’d like in A1/A2/B condition (or comparable to the specific pen I’m trading!). Generally into most of the Japanese brand pens like Sailor 1911L/PG/Realos and Platinum 3776s (any collab with Bungubox, Nagasawa, Hachimonjiya, etc.), Leonardo cigar shaped pens (preference for gold nib, my fave is Elastic EF), Pelikan M600s, etc. I’m open to looking at what you have (especially if it’s special edition) if you are wanting to trade!

I have:

Esterbrook Estie Kachofugetsu with Journaler nib (A2, has been inked once/currently inked)

Franklin Christoph Model 3 Iterum Arctic Blue & Orchid Blue SE Steel SIG M (B, second owner and I’ve only dip tested)

[WTS - CONUS] Platinum 3776 old style BB, Diplomat Viper, Sailors, Nahvalur Nautilus, Leonardo Giada/Jade

Hello! The following prices include CONUS shipping to save time. I’m going to be sending invoices out and trying to ship within the next day or so, please have an email ready with the items you’re interested in! All sub rules apply, and please comment before DMing.

I have the following:

Verification

SOLD Platinum 3776 Century Black 14K Gold (BB nib)* — $95
C just because I bought it used and don’t know much about it aside from the fact that it’s the old style nib. I wanted to frankenpen something with this nib but found a finer nib that suited my writing better. The pen body came with micro scratching.

SOLD Diplomat Viper Brown (FM nib) — $75
A2/B since I inked it once. My hands aren’t the biggest fan of the metal texture of the pen, so I have a hard time holding it while writing. It’s a cute pen with a magnetic cap though! Reduced from $85

Sailor Mini Rencontre Raisin (MF nib) — $175
A1 new and unused, just took it out of the box to photograph. I somehow ended up with two of these so I’m selling one of them. Reduced from $185

Visconti Carousel Opera Demo Blue (F nib) — $200
A2 since I dip tested it. I bought this at a steep discount since it is a steel nib. It writes a bit too broad for me so I haven’t used it since initially trying it. Reduced from $215

Nahvalur Nautilus Verdigris Muse (F nib) — $145
B since I’ve inked this once or twice. It’s a beautiful pen and I love the ink window, I would just prefer a pen that is postable. I kept a red-orange Sailor Studio ink in here for over a month and it did not dry out at all. Reduced from $165

Leonardo Momento Zero Giada/Jade Gold Trim (EF nib) — $185
B since I inked it once and wrote a few pages of notes. It’s a fantastic writer, I ended up ordering this abroad since the gold trim was sold out everywhere in the US. I may keep this if it does not sell. Reduced from $210

Sailor 1911L 21k Crab Nebula (M nib) — $280*
B, I love the beautiful sparkles and subtle blue shimmers in the teal pen body. I keep going back and forth on whether to keep this but I love my other Sailors a tad bit more.

Willing to give a discount if you get multiple pens.

Pens marked with * don’t have a box, but I can find a spare TWSBI Eco box or make a small cardboard reinforcement box for their safe journey to ya! Thanks for looking :)

[WTT] Platinum 3776 Peppermint Tea (A1) for Platinum 3776 Astro (A1/A2)

Verification

I keep dreaming about this pen. I have a new (only taken out of the box to photograph) Platinum 3776 Peppermint Tea F nib that I’ve been saving for a trade and I’m hoping someone has the Astro in mint/near mint condition. My general nib preferences for 3776s are EF>F>M.

Open to folks DMing me about special edition 3776s, I ideally want to be paying around retail pls! Happy to meet up at StationeryFest or DC Pen Show to do the trade :)

The Astro has my heart!!

CONUS only at the moment, thank you

[WTT/WTB] Joyful 2 x Sailor PG Watarase Mint and other LE Sailors

Hello!! I’ve been wanting this for ages but refuse to pay $800+ for it 😭 ideally I’d like to trade; I have a handful of pens I’m trading if anyone has one that is near mint/mint condition or let me know how much you’re selling it for! I have a few LE Sailors and Platinum 3776s that I haven’t posted yet since I’m still looking through my storage, I can update as I find them

I’m generally interested in special Realos/PG and anything that looks jelly-like/has some colored translucent components. Bonus if it’s a cat/frog/food-themed one. No PG Slim pens please since those are too slim for me to comfortably write with.

Some other pens I’m interested in:

Hachimonjiya Junhyo Amethyst
Poesie x Sailor Angel Cat
Sailor PG 21k Sunlight From the Ocean Floor

- never inked, I just ordered this from Japan and it took so long that I had already stopped using Decimos by the time it arrived. Only taken out of the box for photos, the pen body has a beautiful finish. Reduced from $350.
