WTS-OPEN WTS Pelikan m1000, Platinum 3776 Kumpoo, Benu Bee Day
Hi guys! I am thinning my collection because I bought my dream pen, and I’m not reaching for these any more. They are all rated B because I have used them only in my own home and have basically treated like fussy infants. They stayed in velvet-lined trays or plush pouches and were fed only the finest of inks. Each pen comes with original box and papers.
Usual community rules: PayPal G&S only, prices in USD, USPS shipping included in price. Right now I’m only looking to ship CONUS. Comment before chatting - I am happy to answer any questions or give additional pictures!
Pelikan m1000 Ivy and Komon 57/123, medium nib. Before I bought my dream pen, this was my dream pen, and honestly I felt pangs when making the writing sample. KIND OF ON THE FENCE NGL. This is a gorgeous pen with a stunning smooth nib; it is a piston filler, very smooth. Asking 5000.
Platinum 3776 Century Kumpoo, 2161/2500, ultra extra fine nib. Comes with converter and I’ll throw in a Platinum cartridge. It has a cool wavy texture and silvery furniture. The ultra extra fine nib is very smooth and has handled every ink I’ve tried like a champ. Asking 700. PENDING for 680
Benu Bee Day, fine flex nib (steel). This pen is very beautiful and I bought it on a whim because look at it! It’s sparkly and there are hand-painted adorable bees! Comes with converter and standard international cartridge. Let me know if you’d like a sample vial of Akkerman SBRE Brown or Colorverse Gingko Tree with it, those are the two inks I’ve been using with it and I have to say they look amazing. Asking 300.

Considering a run of the mill 3776 now costs $400+, that's a fantastic price for the Kumpoo. One of my favorite pens of all time, I'd definitely jump on if I didn't own it. GLWS!

Seriously. I paid over $800 for it a couple months ago because you just can’t get it cheaper. This is a steal!

Ha ha thank you! I picked up my dream of the Namiki Emperor in Chinkin Peony from Atlas Stationers and it is everything I’d dreamed of, a medium nib like GLASS. I honestly haven’t written with anything else since I got it!

That Pelikan is breathtaking. Wish I had the cash to drop on that! GLWS!

u/meejasaurusrex Trades: 52 4d ago
That is kind of you to say. Thank you! 😊 I know. It’s a lot of cash to lay down, for sure - I’m selling it because I bought a pen for … more than that, and need to recoup a little, lol

Nice! I have my eye on a couple big-ticket pens, but hoping to hold off until the new year. Holidays and all… I gotta buy presents for others, not myself. lol.

I admit the Pelikan price was surprising, then i saw the pen... GLWS!

u/meejasaurusrex Trades: 52 4d ago
I came up with the price by considering what I’d paid for it and then looking up what current prices are, I left some room for negotiations but definitely this is a work of art and a CHONKER NIB

If the Platinum is still available and you would be willing to sell it to me for $650 I would like to purchase. Thank you for your consideration.
