Cost of Mont Blanc pencils

Asking “How much should I pay for Montblanc pencils when pens are just as expensive” is like asking whether a hamburger at a top steakhouse should cost as low as it does at a fast food chain. By the way, don't be fooled by discount Mont Blanc retailers. These “we will not be beat” merchants who offer Mont Blanc pencils at discount prices are kissing cousins to spammers offering “legal” cable TV descramblers. The only difference is, no one ever got in trouble with the law for buying a ripoff Montblanc product. The Mont Blanc mechanical pencil, like the Mont Blanc pen, is a quality, prestige, attractive product, and you do get what you pay for.
