Anybody a high-end pen collector here?

Just wondering - the pen geek world seems rather small. :)

It looks beautiful and it works perfectly. She wrote amazing letters to friends and family regularly and having it on my desk make me very happy.

It's remarkable how pens like than simply vanish. Have you had any fly away? As far as collectibilty I think great quality pens can be a very good investment. When i bought my silver ones-sorry can't remember name, just that they were very respectable, they were a couple of hundred dollars + ; but I felt they were worth it bought one and had it engraved for a dear friend; he still enjoys his nigh on 40 years (so they certainly make great presents!)
