Porsche Fountain Pen Repair

[spydersingh]

Being the pretentious prat that I am, and not being satisfied with using a Bic, I have been using the Porsche Fountain Pen (Silver Braided version) for a while and it is great.

Few days ago, I can only assume not screwing the pen top tight enough and dropped it, hence bending the nib.

Has anybody else had theirs repaired or recommend a place? Any prices also? A quick google found that some places quote 50% of the original pen price for a nib replacement or repair! So thats about £120ish!

Any help?

Cheers!

Yep.
And he gets people shouting at him when they pull up in their Biro next to him.

Understeer I'd have thought.
