Bummed Part II - repair shop list

[Idlefellow]

I contacted Shaeffer (now owned by A.T. Cross apparently) about my broken pen.  They replied they no longer have parts but they sent me a list of repair shops specializing in vintage writing instruments.  If anyone is interested PM me an email address and I'll forward the list to you.

That's a bummer brother. Hopefully one of the repair shops can help you out.

If you want to post the list here I’ll make it stick so we’ll all have it as needed.

I never could figure out how to copy the spread sheet to post, so...

I sent my pen to Main Street Pen; Ron Zorn was EXTREMELY responsive and helpful.  He was able to find a replacement barrel for my pen and also welded my broken barrel together so I'll have a spare.  I don't have it back yet but it's on the way; FAST service and very reasonable.

Have you received your pen back yet? If so how did it turn out? Post a pic I really like to see it.

Ha!  I just saw your post today!  The pen turned out great.  Ron at Main Street Pens had a replacement barrel for it, and he also repaired my broken one just so I'd have a spare.  I'll post a pic when I get home tonight.  Apparently these pens are notoriously fragile so it's been retired to desk duty.

A quick cell phone shot...

Well darn I saw this post. That's an awesome looking pen.
