PelikanFine-Writing 808958 Retractable Ballpoint Pen Classic K200 Marbled Brown in Folding Box

simply a classic beauty, now using daily.

Well, I bought a Pelikan in the 90's and loved it until it was stolen some years later. It cost about 45 bucks back then. It occurred to me to get another one a couple of weeks ago, and the price now was almost $80. I figured inflation and all that, so I got it anyway. What arrived in the mail was a serious disappointment. I felt like I'd been had, like a fool. It was just cheap plastic, not even boxed, but sort of wrapped in crushed cardboard. While my Pelikan from the 90's was hefty and solid, this felt -- just cheap. Further, the styling looks like something that would appeal to someone's great aunt. This didn't come across in the photos. I thought it might have been a fake, but on a search, it was widely assumed that no one would bother counterfeiting a Pelikan. You can get a pen like mine at Walgreens or somewhere for under a dollar.

Gift for son-in-law who collects pens. Description indicated that the pen was in a “folding box” but the box was not included. I submitted a question about the missing box but got no reply. One would expect some type of display case with a pen this expensive, especially when specified in the description.

Just a lovely writer.

Awesome pen!

Es geht doch nichts über einen Pelikan-Kugelschreiber, Einen Kugelschreiber, der über das Papier gleitet ohne zu kratzen, oder andere Geräusche zu machen. Der nach einem Klick immer leise einsatzbereit ist.

Super schnelle Lieferung, Qualität ist 1A. Habe mich riesig gefreut. Hat meine Erwartungen übertroffen. Sehr zu empfehlen. Scheue gerne wieder rein, beim nächsten geplanten Einkauf.

Liegt wunderbar in der Hand.
