Too bad he doesn't allow offers. I could see myself spending 100€ on that one ;)

Help? Why am I buying so many fountain pens?

I recently completed my Lamy Joy collection with the bottommost pen in the picture, one of the first Joys to come to market. Its endcap features a black dot. Does this look right, collectors? Any other Joy variants?http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8029/8047882044_6f470baf99_z.jpg

Ahhh - found it... I knew there was a Joy collection posted at some point on this thread (beautiful collection, Bphollin!). I don't collect the Joys but I thought I should report, in case anyone is interested, that Lamy has released a White Joy with a red clip (like the Japan Safari from a couple of years back). Has this also reached other shores or is it only in Taiwan? Chris

Excellent! And of course I want one! If there are any FPNers or proxy buyers in that part of the world that could find one and ship to the USA, please let me know.

Very impressive Lamy collection bphollin. I wouldn't mind getting my hands on a savannah green safari like the one above. :) Your pictures illustrate the color of the new neon yellow safari very well.

I apologize if this has already been covered, but is there a comprehensive list somewhere of all the colors the Safaris/Al-Stars have been made in? Like many others I'm starting to try to collect the out of production colors, and I'd like to have a list to go by.

Thanks for the info! Really helpful to all Lamy fans.

Do you happen to have a picture of the discontinued Al-Stars?

I googled some of them but can't find anything.

 

Oh, and I think you forgot Al-Star Raspberry

Just curious. What would be the difference between the Green and the Silvergreen, and between the Pearl and the Champagne Gold? And is there really a Lilac Al-Star? Does anyone have photos of these?

 

Thanks!

The list appears to be flawed. Champagne and pearl are the same as well as green and silvergreen i've been using ebay as a resource for making the list and buying them up. Sorry

Was wondering the same about those. I think Pearl/Champagne are the same as are Green/Silvergreen and Silver Blue/Lilac. I think I have them all and they include:

 

Aluminum

Graphite

Ocean Blue

Silvergreen (regular chrome clip and steel nib)

Silvergreen (black clip and nib)

Silverblue (aka "Lilac")

Bastian Schweinsteiger (aka "Signature")

Coffee

Dark Purple (aka Black Purple or Shiraz)

Raspberry

Ruby

Pearl (aka Champagne)

Black

 

I'll round up my Al-Stars and snap a photo over the weekend. Might also have to gather my Studios for a group photo too. Sadly, I'm short of a few Safaris to make a decently complete collection. Those blue/yellow Swedens are expensive!

Hello,

I have found a very big bargain today!
A beautiful Lamy Safari Blue with black clip and accents, packed in blister, with one refill and a standard grey squeeze Lamy pen pouch for an unbeatable price: 4 euro!!! :yikes:

So hard to believe :unsure: and yet so real! I couldn't believe it because there where three more, all blistered and of the same color but with the regular price, only that one was marked so low.

What had you all done in my place? I think the same I did, buy it!
Yes, I am a lucky ass! :D
:D :D
