Thrifters, what's the best pen you passed up? I'll start

Discussion

Was roaming around a local flea market with barely any pens, besides a lot of jotters. I then came across a beautiful Parker 45 Flighter with a 14k gold nib. Was seriously debating getting it, but the clip was missing, which is a dealbreaker for me. Worst is I thought it would be hard to get a new cap, when a few days ago I got a standart 45 with a pristine cap for 10 bucks.

Definitely not the worst, but it still bothers me every now and then
