Looking for a nice pen

Very boring I know but I'd like to buy a nice pen. Budget up to about £50 or so

Any recommendations

Look on cult pens. What type of pen btw?

Ball point or roller. Not fountain pen - though I've seen some gorgeous ones

Cross Calais are nice - variety of colours £35 - £55.

Sheaffer are also nice to write with.

Lami pico if you want something funky.

The Pen Shop is doing a 10% off online offer.

I've got a nice silvery Parker pen I've had for 20+ years, and recently got gel ink refills for it instead of normal ink. It now writes so much better, don't know why I didn't get them sooner.

Thanks. Will have a look at these over the weekend

Never thought of Parker 🤦🏻‍♀️

I like my brass Kaweco sport but mine is a fountain pen. It's heavy and gets a lovely patina over time.

They do a ballpoint too
