As always the delivery was swift. I asked for Appelboom’s in-house nib meister to check the Pelikan M 800 medium replacement nib. To my regret yet totally understandable Joost explained that without the pen nibs cannot be checked separately. No complaints! Yet the nib had to be adjusted by a local nib meister after arrival in order to be flawless.
I received a Pelikan M800 with a medium nib as a gift. It wrote more like a double broad. This EF replacement makes the pen a joy to write with.
Appellboom service was impeccable as always.
I was able to get hold of an M800 Grand Place and was very happy with the pen overall, except it was an M and the line width was a little too thick. I decided to investigate an EF nib and came across Appelboom. The price was very good (it's since increased in price) and I was impressed with the service and speed of delivery - I live in Japan and it was with me within 3 days. The nib itself was everything that I'd hoped for - great ink flow, but a much finer line - I cannot fault it. I planned to buy another, but unfortunately the price increase hindered me from doing so, but after my overall experience with Appelboom, I plan on making a future pen purchase from them.
Easily replaced by the user, extremely well made with a solid, quality feel. Nice ink flow and just the right amount of flexibility. Makes my Souveran M815 Metal just perfect for my style of writing. As always, priced, packed and shipped promptly and professionally by Joost and his team!
Previously, I bought a Pelikan EF nib for the M800 from a famous vendor in eBay, it had poor ink flow and could not write, then I bought the Pelikan EF nib for M800 from Appelboom, I got the package today and install the nib on my m800, I inked up and viola! The Pelikan EF nib writes out of the box, no ink flow issues I am so happy and relief! So I decided that Appelboom is the only vendor I will go to for all Pelikans!
