A long time ago I bought a button fill Gold Starry from a French store. I checked it out to write up some notes and the celluloid has a crack right by the section. I don't see the pen ever being repaired but I'm wondering if the nib could be re-used in, say, an Estie? Any info would be gratefully received. Thought also about having a new body turned for the pen since the section threads onto the barrel - I guess this is going to be costly. If neither route is feasible then it's time to say au revoir and if anyone wants the parts do PM me. Merci, Roger
