So as I got further into this hobby and acquired a broader range of pens, I've come to discover what I like in a pen, but more importantly, what I don't like in a pen.
So here I'm putting up for sale pens that I otherwise love, but just don't ever seem to use because not being able to stick the cap on the back of the pen doesn't really work for the type of person who is always misplacing things (me.)

Comment before you pm.
First up is a Kaweco Liliput Stainless Steel with a EF nib. Okay, so I know that this pen actually does post, but I got it with the intention of making this my EDC pen. Something to jot down quick notes and stuff like that. So the fact that you have to screw the cap on the back to post resulted in me never using this pen. Condition is B due to some micro scratches on the cap where I had a clip attached. Comes with box and papers and a 6 pack of cartridges. $85
SOLD . I also bought a 14k two tone rose gold ef nib from nibs.com to go with this pen, and then I didn't even like the pen. So this nib is also up for sale for $140. Or if you buy both together $200
SOLD Benu Briolette Eden Steel EF nib. A2 condition. Inked once, and only used a handful of times at home at my desk. I love everything about this pen. It's pretty, it's comfortable to write with, the nib works wonderfully. But dammit, it doesn't post. So I'm going to let it go for $60. Comes with box and papers.
Smith Crafters Hybrid Writer Steel F nib. A2 condition. This pen drew me in because I loved the look of burlwood mixed with a dark smokey grey clear resin. Inked once and never left my desk. Comes in the box and pen sleeve it came with, both of which are honestly super generic, but that's okay because the pen is unique. $190.
Bexley Cable Twist White LE 14k M nib . B condition. This pen is a limited edition, number 43 of 50 from 1994 and looks damn good for a 26 year old pen. I bought it from Peyton Street Pens where it was listed as near mint condition. I have only inked it once, as of now there is some slight blue staining on the inside of the cap that I'm working on cleaning out (hence the B rating.) Other than that, the pen is in great condition. No scratches or cracks. Comes with original box and papers. $225

... keep reading on reddit ➡it was shared on the subreddit and on the YouTube video on a board, not sureeeee i wanna be the one to say it loud and clear because i know how people are about that. if enough of you don’t care I’ll just edit this post with the name.. but how do we feel??? it’s definitely unique. i gotta get used to hearing it for sure.
ALSO I really hope her middle name is Elizabeth. Lizzy deserves that above all.
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
I knew this day would come for one of my pens: my dog panicked when I left the room for some reason, and in a few minutes managed to destroy my irreplaceable Bexley Sheherazade. He went after the piston-filler end, and the 18k gold nib is still in great shape. (Luckily the ink didn't spill, but the filler knob and piston are toast.)
So...what do I do with that nib? Try and sell it on eBay or elsewhere on Reddit? I don't know how interchangeable it might be. Could I find a bespoke pen maker who could install it in a new body? (Any ideas about who might be able to do so?)
I've never swapped out nibs, and this pen is twenty years old or so--Bexley isn't the same company it was. The only info I have about the nib is from an old listing:
"The fountain pen nib is a two tone gold marked BEXLEY M 18K 750. The Bexley nib is unique in that it screw mounts into the grip much like a Pelikan FP design allowing for easy preference changes."
(Here's the link with pics--identical to mine, but not, y'know, munched.) https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/bexley-sheherazade-fountain-pen-1820931237
Thanks for any advice!
Edit: I have successfully swapped the nib into a Laban Forest! And thanks for the silver!

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.
What did 0 say to 8 ?

So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
I won't be doing that today!

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
There hasn't been a post all year!
