I saw a Mont Blanc sell on Ebay yesterday for over $2000. There is another one "buy it now" for $4500. Even if they were solid gold I can't see them being worth that much.

I found some Shaeffer Javelins out there just now. They use a cartridge. Nice looking.
The Noodler Ahab has a pump. It uses bottled ink.
So many choices. -

The Ahab came in today. It was surprisingly easy to fill and I was pleased that the ink doesn't cling to the pen as you dip it in the ink.
I'll find out tomorrow how much I like using it at work.... -

I didn't know there was such a thing. Does it makes the pen more prone to clog, or is that even a problem?
