Heh, 2 to 3 bucks each.

Most of the pens I have been buying lately are between 100 and 400.

Looking at getting one of these next.

Made out of lava from Mt Etna, with a palladium nib.

Excuse my ignorance, but WTF does a $400 pen do that ones that are $1 for a dozen don't?

Pen? Who uses pens. I use my macbook.

BUT on the rare occasion I do need to use a pen...

I rarely use a pen, but I do use a mechanical pencil - a Pentel Kerry .05 made in Japan.

it has the smoothest writing ever, and i've used expensive pens before.

Here's what I'm using at this very moment in the library:

Lamy 2000 Medium filled with Aurora Blue
Pelikan M215 Medium filled with J. Herbin Cafe des Iles (a sepia-brown color)

Writing is so much better than typing! :D

Other than that, it's whatever I have on hand, complete with Jesus pencil toppers because they are hilarious:
