A Nakaya decapod I think it was called. My brother borrowed it and I have not seen it since. I have a few old Montblanc picked up new but the prices today make them expensive.

I am reminded of that old Bic sales campaign about "you flic my Bic" I think aimed mostly at the Bic lighters and loaded with double entendre. Might have made a good "one liner" between you and SWMBO right after signing.
"Dammit ... how long until my 50th birthday?!?!?"

I have Porsche 3135 Solid fountain pen. When I bought it, it was just over 2 grand. The price has dropped considerably

My most expensive pen is a Pelikan M805 Demonstrator with a nib ground and tuned by Masuyama, with the second most being the MB 149.
My most valued pen is my Tactile Turn fountain pen with a stainless Bock nib that Pendleton Brown ground to a cursive italic with added flex...seriously clever piece of work by my friend Pendleton. It writes like an absolute dream!

Hmmmm? Well I picked up several nice used FP's, all for around $125: Lamy 2000, MB 221 Piston, MB Noblesse, & Edison Nuveau. A friend told me that I paid too much for them, except possibly the Edison. Well, I have used cheap fountain pens for years and decided to get some "nicer" ones, but didn't get any good advice before diving in. I suppose us begining collectors do stuff like that. Is ignorance bliss?

Parker 51 Empire State vac with gold cap.
Must admit that now that I have found my ideal pen that I am not hungry enough to buy expensive pens, I am past the point where I need to have an expensive pen, by which I mean $1000 or so.
Must admit that I have two 149s and had both of them for 10 years, they dont see much use.

expensive as what I paid or expensive as to the worth
Pelikan M1000.
Unexpected chunk of cash came my way, so I splurged and picked up a Visconti Homo Sapiens Dark Age, with the Cursive Smooth Italic nib ground by Mark Bacas. It should ship tomorrow, and be at my house by Tuesday this week.
Nakaya dorsal fin v2...
I suppose it should be the Pelikan Souverän M800, but I purchased it used here quite a few years ago for a sum I don't remember.
Most expensive would be the Ruby Red Pelikan M600.

Pelikan dark blue M605. I don't remember exactly what I paid for it. I think that was in 2003 or 2004? I do remember being kind of nervous about sending off so much money to someone in Germany that had a few to sell.
