What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing is internally inconsistent: the title and main description identify a burgundy medium-point fountain pen with blue ink, but a feature bullet instead describes a click-action ballpoint tip and Quinkflow ink. The listing also gives a blue colour field despite the burgundy title. Confirm the selected pen type, finish and ink before ordering. Refill pack quantity and exact type are not specified.
