INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: I'm sorry, but international rates are so highfor these heavy lots,that I'm not accepting international offers.

RETURNS: I'm selling these pens/pencils for a friend's father who has been collecting them for fifty years and is ready to part with some. My knowledge of pens and pencils is limited to the research that I've done on and from the experience I gained from selling other batches of pens and pencils. This has all been helpful, but I'm still an amateur and could make some mistakes in terminology and identification. So please study the scans and email with any questions. I'll do my best to answer them. Please see all scans and read my detailed description below. All sales are final, unless I grossly misrepresented the item. Some buyers have been taking advantage of my sweet, wonderful, self :)
