Aurora Style Resin Fountain Pen

I'd love to buy the black and gold in this model but, sadly, the exchange rate on the Aussie dollar is in the pits. I'd be paying over $85 in my money. I'll have to wait and hope these come up again some time in the future. sigh... Cheers, raafbloke

I'm not convinced on the Metropolitan. Mine doesn't start if left for a few days and my Wing Sung pens are far better. Having bought the Metropolitan and the Lamy Safari, I'm underwhelmed. It seems tough to market pens in the 50-120 range when you can get both Pilot and Platinum gold nibbed pens on this range. I'd get a platinum 3776 for $80 off ebay rather than this, although look wise, this does look more modern.

At $66 this is a great deal, I love mine, have the light blue which is pretty on trend with the special edition colors this year like the Lamy Safari Pastels. Mine is a great writer and sits nicely, also it's not soooo pricy that I don't take it out with me and beat it up a bit
