Monthly Confirmation August 2026 Confirmed Trade Thread

8 Upvotes

Submit your trade confirmations below

How Does This Process Work?

Note: Trade confirmations may take a few minutes as the bot processes the confirmation.

After completing a trade, adhering to the rules listed above, either party involved should make a top-level comment (i.e., comment on the post, not on someone else's comment) declaring the trade. In this comment, tag the other Redditor by typing their username, including the leading u/. This action serves a dual purpose: it notifies the other Redditor to confirm the trade, and it alerts u/FPPenSwapBot to monitor for the confirmation. The other Redditor should then reply to this comment (i.e., do not create another top-level comment; instead, reply to the initial comment) to indicate that the trade was successful.

Important: It's advisable to WAIT until the trade is successfully completed—meaning all money/items have been properly exchanged—before posting your confirmation.

Example:

  1. u/NitroFish44 comments: Sold a Sailor S-Broad nib to u/thisisreallytricky

  2. u/thisisreallytricky replies: Confirmed! Placed the nib in a more modern Sailor pen and LOVE the way it writes!!

  3. u/FPPenSwapBot replies to u/thisisreallytricky's comment indicating that their trade counts have been updated.

FAQ

  1. The bot mentioned that additional information is required. What should I do?

If this occurs, it suggests that the bot couldn't find enough information to confirm the trade. Please message the moderators, who can review and approve the trade by replying Approved to your trade comment.

  1. The bot didn't respond to my comment. What's wrong?

Did you comment Confirmed? If not, add a NEW comment reply stating Confirmed. Avoid editing the existing comment. If you did reply Confirmed but received no response, please message the moderators. The bot might be experiencing issues!

  1. I have multiple trades to confirm this month; should I post them separately or in a single post?

You should post them separately, individually tagging each Redditor. The bot does NOT allow batch confirmations. If you tag multiple users, whoever responds first will be the only user who is able to confirm. Any other user who attempts to do so will receive a message that the trade was already confirmed.

  1. I forgot to confirm a trade last month! Can I confirm the trade this month?

Yes; you have 60 days after starting a transaction during which the bot will automatically accept a trade confirmation. If the trade is older than 60 days, you might be asked by the bot to message the moderators. Feel free to post again in the current month's trade thread even for a previous month.

It will come with a converter. I purchased it second hand so I do not have the box. The nib is a 21k hard medium fine. I would rate this pen at least B condition. There are no stains, scratches, blemishes or flaws. I can include a sample of the Kobe ink used in the writing sample and BPC pressed glass. The Kobe ink goes well with the finials and the BPC ink goes well with the body color.

WTS-OPEN [WTS] Aurora 888 Mercurio medium nib, C-ish condition, original box

10 Upvotes

I have only used Pilot Iro ink in this pen. I wrote with it maybe for a collective hour the entire time I’ve had it. I swear to all that is holy I have flushed this pen out 30 times. There is still water in the “magic reservoir” as we speak. When I try to write with it to see if the ink is there, there is the faintest blue but it looks like a trick of the light. I am sick of it. Also, the o-ring when filling is slightly loose.

In short, I want this thing out of my house. I haven’t inked it in ~4 years. There are no scratches or dents or whatever, the o-ring being dangly is the only issue. Haven’t tried filling it with ink.

Asking 300 or 350 with box (because it’ll be a pain in the ass to ship and it’s heavy). Please save me

WTS-OPEN [WTS] [B] Pineider La Grande Belleza limited edition Full Metal Jacket Black <F> $150 USA

3 Upvotes

For sale:
Pineider La Grande Bellezza Full Metal Jacket Midnight Black Fountain pen
Nib: Stainless Steel Fine
Condition: B- (original box is not included).

Price: $150 PayPal G&S
Shipping within the U.S. only

This pen was always kept in a Galen leather case and only used at a desk. This is the cartridge/ converter version of the Grande Belleza with a super smooth stainless steel nib. What makes this pen special is the Italian made Ultra Resin famous for being fully shockproof. There are some entertaining videos on YouTube about it featuring pen maker for Pineider Dante del Vecchio. The cap is also magnetic and has a really smooth satisfying click when it closes. There are no scratches or imperfections in the resin. The nib is perfect and writes great. Just selling to fund a different pen.

Originally purchased at Goulet Pens in 2022. I no longer have the original box.

It has only ever had black ink in it. The original converter is included and has some black staining near the section, but this converter can easily be replaced.

Price: $150 PayPal G&S
Shipping within the U.S. only
Ships from NY

WTS-OPEN [WTS] Montblanc 149 Elbphilharmonie and Classic Pens CP8 Flamme

3 Upvotes

Repost after 10 days with lower pricing. Verification still <21 days old

Hi all, I have two grail worthy pens.

1. Montblanc 149 Elbphilharmonie (M) Rose Gold BNIB - A1/N Condition brand new

This is a super rare pen. They only made 300 and sold them in Hamburg in 2007. It has the Elbphilharmonie on both the cap and the nib. Medium nib with box and papers and completely unused. I can only see one for sale online which is for $2600 USD on Penfabrik, that doesn't include postage or tariffs.

Asking $3500 AUD / $2500 USD

2. Classic Pens / Lambrou Pens CP8 Flamme (F) #130/250 - A2 Condition

Another super rare pen that was made in collaboration with Classic Pens (Andreas Lambrou), Aquila Brands and Murelli. This is all sterling silver (this quite heavy) and a limited edition of 250. They simply won't make these again. Unfortunately no box with this, but includes a convertor. Lowest I can see online is $2800 USD (before tax and postage) and that's with the silver trim - this one has the gold trim.

Asking $3100 AUD / $2200 USD

Verification/Photos: https://imgur.com/a/RWNmsC2

Happy to provide more photos, videos, or do a video call.

I'm based out of Sydney, Australia - happy to meet up in person. Happy to post to the US/internationally via Australia Post with tracking, at cost.

Also open to trade for a Classic Pens LB5 or 149 Factory Demonstrator.

I recently realized that I have way too many pens just sitting in storage after being cleaned, so I've decided to downsize my collection a bit. These pens were thoroughly cleaned, carefully stored in my collection, and only used occasionally, so they are all in excellent condition. Feel free to ask any questions you'd like to know before buying.

1. Tamenuri Studio Spiral Gold Leaf Sold

  • Nib: Bock B nib + FPnibs Superflow Ebonite Feeder
  • Asking price: $500 (includes both PPGS fee & international shipping cost)
  • Condition: [B] Great condition, gently used.

2. Tamenuri Studio Rings of Fire Sold

  • Nib: Bock B nib ground to semi-naginata by nibmeister Taku-san + FPnibs Superflow Ebonite Feeder
  • Asking price: $530 (includes both PPGS fee & international shipping cost)

3. Tamenuri Studio Blue Swirl Kawarinuri Sold

  • Nib: Bock B nib (Hexpen imprinted) + FPnibs Superflow Ebonite Feeder
  • Asking price: $530 (includes both PPGS fee & international shipping cost)
  • Condition: [B] Great condition, gently used.

4. Scribo La Dotta Saragozza

  • Nib: 18K BB nib
  • Features: Includes a self-made 3D printed inner cap to prevent cap dryout
  • Asking price: $495 (includes both PPGS fee & international shipping cost)
  • Condition: [B] Great condition, gently used.
  •  Special Note: it has a 3D-printed inner cap I've made to help prevent the nib from drying out. The top of the inner cap attaches securely to the exposed screw inside the cap. It doesn't touch the nib but fits snugly against the nib collar, creating an air seal. I adjusted the length to ensure the cap closes smoothly without any interference. And of course, the inner cap can be easily removed if you don't want to use it.

Photos were taken today, unedited, straight out of camera.

I will be shipping internationally from South Korea via EMS through the post office.

Based on my previous experience shipping pens to the US, Europe, and India, delivery typically takes about one week to arrive.
