Why not buy one decent pen "shell" and then just buy the plastic tube with the tip and the ink afterwards?

I know many companies use pens for marketing but still, they could apply this too and also stand up for the environment while still do marketing.

I carried around a $150 fountain pen for years. Then I lost it. Not fun.

What was it?

Pilot Vanishing Point Yellow Rhodium Medium nib.

Was a thicker line than I prefer on my EDC anyway, but it was a beautiful pen.
