Which pens and writing instruments are worthless?

When we say we buy pens and fine writing instruments, that means we buy the high-end pieces, usually with a value of $50 and up. Not all pens have value. Most are worthless, in fact. Even ancient, antique, feather-quill pens may have little or no value. We will be happy to help you determine if you have trash...or treasure. Just contact us.
