Post Your Montblanc Pen Collection

Good Day All,
I got a new pen for Christmas and another one a while ago. So here is a photo of my Montblanc pen collection. Let’s see yours!

Take Care,

Eric

Latest addition. I like the engraving on the resin barrel.




Anyone knows where to get those old limited editions? Looking for the 2003 Jules Verne set.

Nice Pens! Some stores have a few older limited editions in stock but I have only seen up 2005. You might have to get it from ebay.

I was pursuing Jules Verne sets on Ebay until the recession.

Thanks!
I am a bit reluctant to buy from ebay - 1. not proficient enough to be able to distinguish fakes from reals on low def photos typical of ebay.
2. on sealed sets you don't even see the pens, rather have to trust the seller completely - or, is this customary for sealed sets?

If there are trusted ebay sellers please pm me :-)

Does anyone know if there is any useful information to get from the serial numbers?

Nothing like the Rolex SN's. Mostly they are useful in determining authenticity and for warranty purposes.

Can one reasonably expect an official Montblanc dealer to discount if asked? If so by how much?

If you're in Australia, Melbourne Pen Depot in Chadstone is doing their annual sale - this year only at 10% off, while previous years were 15% off. I have checked Taft, and other retailers - they don't discount Montblanc...
My belief is that dealers in US are not allowed to mail order or sell their pens overseas for current production models. However, it doesn't exclude you to get a feel on their discounts. e.g. www.fountainpenhospital.com. They'll email you their prices.

You can still get them on eBay, but at a premium.
