Looks like the default option is the ball point. You can then add a fountain pen for $32 more. What if I just want the fountain pen?

dbhatiaWhen you commit to buy and select a fountain pen that's what you're getting. The drop price is for a ballpoint, select a fountain for an additional $32 and you get a fountain instead. Fountain pens are always more expensive in any style of pen that also has a ballpoint or rollerball option.

dbhatiaSeems for people into fountain pens, they're not going to want the ballpoint anyways. I'd prefer it if it was an either-or option, not a you must get this, and if you want this pay more. It's not really worth it to me.

KarlBlessingIt's an either or option. For $30 more you get the FP instead of BP. If you get the FP, you will not get the BP.
Thanks,

andySo at the current price it's 52.99+30.00 = 82.99 for the fountain pen. (74.99 at the lowest drop).
Also having trouble finding any reviews of the Speed Model T, and seems like any Model T reviews focuses on the Titanium nib, which is not offered in this massdrop (making it well... a stylish version of my Pilot Metropolitans).
Also there was a forum post saying it's not a real piston filling pen, the rear cap just turns a converter on the inside.
Seeing plenty of pictures, just not a lot of reviews or testimonials about it, and most of the comments if any are uncertain or iffy about it.
