npub10xgltprqhg36w7fv4uqwrkclsqqas39l79xe2r0wfdvalztawe4qlvh39u (npub10xg…h39u) Levenger usually charged list price for fountain pens. No one else does. :) At the time, also, there were some very nice North American distributors for Pelikan and Platinum who sold directly. (Not the case now.)
Also pens often can be bought on the ‘gray market’, where you get them as they are sold in other countries, at the prices in those countries, sometimes in models not otherwise sold here.
Nowadays I also buy vintage, plus there is a kind of renaissance in cheap pens.
