Incoming - Montblanc Oscar Wilde Set

I happened to make an insane offer on this set via Ebay and the seller took it.

Sometimes the stars align, the harmonies requite, and the rainbows change colors on demand.

Yes....

Beautiful set, one of my favorites from the Montblanc Writers Series.
The Oscar Wilde mechanical pencil is a difficult one to find.

Thank you all!

Just to add.... On Ebay I have been developing a "bad" habit of offering hundreds of $$$ below the seller's price. For some reason they have been accepting.

So....

If you have the knowledge and the funds and know what you want to bid on an item or set, do so. I have been purchasing on Ebay for years, but for some unknown reason these owners are accepting my very off balance offers for sets lately.

Therefore my collection grows. Not sure what is the issue is. But that is the American way methinks!

I wish you good luck!

The Dragon, howbeit a gorgeous pen, is not my cup of tea.

Bid or eSnipe the pen to your highest price. After that.... leave it to the Ebay gawds.

I just received this set today. I would not normally post on a MB set as I have just about seen them all, but let me say this: If you ever get a chance to own this set please proceed!

This is the most beautiful MB set I have owned by far! This one will not leave my collection.

I just had to say it...

I saw another set on eBay today with a offer option. Looks like there's another deal to be had out there

I think myself to be somewhat of a cynic when it comes to MB sets as I own so many of them.

This Wilde set is most definitely the most beautiful that I have acquired. It must be the celluloid. I am going to need to do more research as I am very surprised at this discovery.

I wish you all well!

So I have now had a chance to write with the Oscar Wilde FP for about a week or more.

They did this one right guys! If you have a chance to own one don't hesitate.

Enjoy!

I have several MB sets and this one was a serious surprise!

The beauty of the celluloid was way beyond what I expected! If you have a chance to acquire one .... .... . ..... ... do it!
