I kind of went crazy buying fountain pens after COVID-19 hit a few years ago. It was a lot of fun trying out so many pens—from $2 pens to a few $600 pens and many more priced in between
I’ve now sold most of them on eBay, but I still have plenty of pens. I kept most of my Leonardo and Lamy pens, and I still have numerous cheap Chinese fountain pens that aren’t worth enough to sell on eBay. Maybe I’ll send a whole bunch together as a single offer.
Not surprisingly, they sold for less than the price I originally bought them at. But I got a fair amount back, especially for the higher-end pens.
I still have enough ink to last several lifetimes, along with many empty notebooks and a library’s worth of paper.
Now I just have to resist buy more pens, ink, and/or paper at the upcoming Colorado Pen Show.
