I am very sorry about that. Someone gave this pen to me from an estate and it looked brand new and never used to me. With this in mind, I am happy to take this back with a full refund including postage, or I can make an adjustment in the price. What would you like me to do to make it right....as I certainly did not mean to misrepresent this item. Again, I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused....and please let me know what you would like me to do.
