Verification

Got my hands on all of these pens years ago, but they've been sitting there almost entirely unused, so I want to pass them along to someone that will appreciate them more. I'm hoping to use the funds to purchase a pen more in line with my current preferences.

Prices include shipping to CONUS

Sailor 1911S Wicked Witch, Converter and Sailor Shikiori Shigure - Medium - B Condition

  • Pen was used to write a few pages with the Shigure Ink, then cleaned and put away in its box. The Shigure is missing maybe a converter or two's worth of ink. Comes with Box and Converter, box has small ink stains.
  • $235 USD

Parker Vacuumatic - F/M? - C Condition

  • Purchased here on the subreddit, original listing described it as "user-grade". The pen writes and the filling system still works fine. It has two notable scratches included in the pictures, and discoloration on the band and clip
  • $135 USD

Pen to trade:
Pilot Custom 743 - Fine - B/D Condition

  • The feed swap I did, and nib swap before it got to me bring it down to a D, but it is in B condition, I've done light writing with it and it's stayed in my pen case.
  • I fell out of love with this pen's fine nib, which is more like an extra fine with certain inks even with the ebonite feed. The nib is just too fine to show off ink when using it to write. I'd like to trade nibs for a Broad, Double Broad, Coarse or Stub nib, or if by some miracle someone wants to go from a Falcon to a Fine, I'd be interested in that as well. If you have any other nibs or pens you want to trade for, I can discuss it.
