Can Someone Find Me A Body For This Nib?

[chunya]

I am not surprised they were appalled, given the information you got from one of their boutiques

Quite right, as stated right at the very start, they would have nothing to worry about if they were telling you the truth.

Glad it's all turned out happily.

I'm due to get my 149 back from MB which when I bought it arrived without any innards .... £60 is what I'll have to pay when I collect it and, as Chrissy hammered home, it'll be like receiving a brand new one when I get my hands on it.

Good luck!

As an afterthought, perhaps you could e-mail the link to this thread to the Athens MB Boutique staff ... they may start to change their customer service?

U will love the 149...it is an all round best of pens to own. It has only one drawback for me. The size!!! Simply too big for many hours of work. If u have a medium hand its a bit...

 

Well i hope u have a big hand. How did u get it with no guts?

I already did that. My first thought actually.

Just me exaggerating ... it just arrived without a piston, everything else was there ... and I challenged the auction house and they managed to negotiate a partial refund ... so not too much of a disaster.

 

I do like the 149, it sits nicely and writes beautifully (I'm almost ashamed to say that as of this week I now have three of them)
