Not a deal for everyone (heck, I have never paid more than a couple of quid for a pen before) but I just purchased this pen as I wanted something a bit 'nice' for work...this pen is usually in the £75 - £100 range so very surprised to see that the black colour is only £42.50 at amazon. Just received it today - and I am very impressed. Has a lot of heft to it, looks amazing and writes really well...
Cheers!

decent pen. good weight and can be used with cheap gel refillls. but....
ive been really disappointed because the silver plating came off mine quite quickly. after barely a year you can now clearly see the brass underneath all round the top of the cap and where the cap meets the body of the pen. i keep mine clipped to the spiral of my notepad and this is probably where the wear has come from....but i genuinely dont think this is unreasonable use. i wanted a 'good' pen to have at work...but it looks too worn now

This can be bought at WHSmith for 10% less with code, plus further 10% cash back. Free delivery. I posted this as a deal, but it bombed as cold for some reason.
This seems expensive. I paid this price for the fountain pen version. Really with a rollerball, go for anything that feels good in the hand and then put a good refill in.

I get what you mean. Just find it weird how they are priced so high. In the end the function is same as cheaper pens. Surely the quality is not very significant? Maybe I will buy one in the future when pens are not needed anymore and everything is electrical lol!

not sure about the rich part but yes, saving money is a good thing irrespective of how much one makes...

I am very far from rich Raseo7, but still like to put pen to paper on personal letters, messages on cards... and you just can't beat the feel of a good pen. Waterman pens are superb.

sometimes its nice to splash out on the finer things in life..i do own a couple of really nice pens and i can see why they cost that little bit extra.

Yup - I love bic pens too...they are amazing...definitely agree - spending more than £5 for a pen feels decadent!

oh no! hope mine works out better than that...generally the pen has spectacular reviews, so hoping my experience is positive...
cheers...
