3 x 4-pack Pentel Energel Pens (Black, Blue, Red) NIB

It's finds like these that keep me up at night to brag to the internet about. This was a great pull today, in the random aisle section of the Goodwill. To my surprise I found maybe 10 sets of these NIB 4-pack Pentels pens. Not sure if I need to explain the Pentel brand and I don't want to be Captain Obvious but, it is internationally known and synonymous with the top luxury brands of our day.

These were "Made in Japan" but I don't see a marking of the date they left manufacturing. At first this concerned me, but I realized that possibly, these were rare marketing prototypes they gave out unofficially.

Anyway, I was getting a bit nervous peeling off the price tag (Goodwill now barcodes every single thing) - but I did it very carefully. I'm sure you would too if you had 4 new-in-box 4-packs sitting in front of you too. The centering on two of them is pretty good, but I wouldn't consider any of them gradeable. Fact is though, these are for my personal collection (sorry folks, some things in this world just cannot be sold).
