Does he subtract VAT when shipping outside the EU?

Of course. It is illegal not to do so. I do international shipping and European VAT rules are very seriously enforced.

My most recent addition just arrived today and is extra special to me because it is the last pen that I required to give me a complete collection of M150's. This one was tough to track down. It's the black-green M150 in the new-style trim. This one has a single chick cap top logo.

I have found that the harder I work, the luckier I am. I think in this case the same could be said for Sargetalon.

 

And by the way Sarge, I guess if you have to be lucky, you might as well luck into an old pen that looks like it is brand new. Is that pen in as nice condition as it looks? Then again, I am a sucker for a green pen.

It arrived appearing to have never been inked. Mint condition.

Weirdly enough, since you contacted me about that pen I've been seeing a *lot* of the same M150s around in unused conditions.

Just arrived in my mailbox today: the m200 Cognac demonstrator. What an elegant little pen! I've inked it with Diamine Raw Sepia.

I received a Pelikan 400nn with a F nib this morning from Serbia. It's got some nice flex to it.

@shedberg – That's a good looking pen! I've got the same model / color and though it's not a recent addition I'd like to post a photo of it:

Nice! I really like the tortoiseshell colouring.

[BMG]

I do too. There seem to be different shades of tortoise (and I don't mean the “creamy” looking lighter ones, which are also beautiful [not to mention rare {and thus expensive}]) in the vintage Pelikans: darker ones, like yours and mine, and lighter, “honey-colored” ones. Maybe someone will add a pic of such a one…

Gorgeous as usual Christof!!

[BMG]

Yep, those were the "honey" tortoises I was thinking of (sargetalon's #1 and christof's #5). Many thanks, you two.

[shedberg]

Man those are some gorgeous pens!
