I won an auction on the Bay with a bid of ONE CENT. It was overpriced!

Definitely my worst pen purchase in a Very Long Time and the only one that I was glad to through away. YMMV, and then again, it might not!

My mileage did not vary, but I did learn that I wouldn't be pleased the Curidas in hand.  Unfortunately the cheap pen was too expensive a way to learn this.  Awful.  

 

I love retractable, but for now I'm sticking with Vanishing Points!

How much was shipping?

 

So far I've refrained from getting a 3088, as the reviews sounded quite bad - even considering its low price level.

But for 1 Cent in total, I'd definitely give it a try 😉

IIRC it was $7.00 or so. Definitely not more than $8.00. If they7 offered free return shipping I would have returned it immediately after attempting to use it. I guess I could view it as a somewhat good lesson for a few dollars.

 

One might consider this to being my way of doing "penance" or is that pen nance?

 

It's could also be thought of as spending money on bad pens... dis-pensation!

You'd still end up frustrated. Really.
