Pelikan New Classic P390 Fountain Pen

I got mine through mass drop on Feb 24, 2016 for $149.99.

I just got mine as well, but unfortunately I am becoming a bit disillusioned with Massdrop. This is the second pen in a row I have ordered that has arrived with an incorrect configuration; I received a medium nib instead of the extra fine that is on my order. To top it off, and to add to my disappointment especially with such an otherwise beautiful pen, mine arrived damaged, with scratches all over the cap. I had considered giving this as a gift but the damage will prevent that. It looks as if it has been used. I'd be afraid to even ink it up to see how it writes until I find out what can be done to make my order right. Very disappointed.

Just got the pen. Beautiful, beautiful, to look at and hold. Unfortunately, like most of the Pelikan pens I owned (M600, M1000, among others), this one has hard start (missing initial stroke), a real shame because, when it writes, it simply glides across the paper (mine is a B nib). It is also a little scratchy in comparison with the M series. These are minor defects that need fixing but, in view of what I have paid, I am not complaining.
