Heading to Copley Center, looking to buy a MB roller or ball under $600.

Any recommendations?

You should be able to pick up just about any non-LE MB roller ball for under that price.

I would recommend the classic though. An excellent choice.

You can also get the Boheme for about 3-400.00.

Not sure what store you are planning to visit, but you should definitely check out Bromfield Pen Shop (ask for Fred). It's near downtown crossing, an easy train ride (a couple of stops on the Orange line) from Copley. BPS has an extensive collection of pens, including MBs. Good luck.

I happen to like the Starwalker RBs and BPs(I own both of the rubber with metal) and you can buy them for around $445.00 retail!!!

Yes, I'm heading toward these for my first. I'll post pictures Sunday of what I ended up with!

I love Bromfield's! I, too, dealt with Fred and was able to purchase a brand new MB RB in bordeaux for a very fair price. (They still have a few bordeaux pieces in stock if they hold an appeal for you.)

OK, I wandered all around Copley in Boston...watches...WOW! Pateks, A Lange, Panerai, Rolex, etc. A bonanza in there!

As promised, I purchased a Mont Blanc at the boutique. I went for a little bling.

A Mont Blanc Boheme Doue Gold Roller Ball.

It's my first venture into anything other than a Bic! I tried a number of fountain pens, but just couldn't get used to the writing style. I'll keep trying because I suspect my next pen will be one. First though, enjoy:
