I just signed on and am looking to buy a Mont Blanc pen.   Is this a good and reliable retailer?  I just wonder if they are not grey market or knock off's due to extremely low prices.

The site itself is clearly bogus.

http://www.montblanc.com/ is the actual Montblanc Web site, with a locator to get you to your nearest "boutique."

There are authorized on-line Montblanc retailers, but they are not supposed to show prices for Montblanc products.

Thanks for the reply.  I tried to contact them about source of pens and got no reply. I also noticed some strange wording in the site.   I had also entered same question on another forum and someone came back with orgins of a site somewhere in china.

I definetly do not want to do business with those people, now or ever.  

I have to admit though the site looked good and was slick, but I did locate some authorized dealers and will go there.   Where I  live a botique is too far, nearest probably 350-380 miles round trip.

The closest "boutique" to me is about thirty miles away, but there's an authorized dealer (John's Fifth Avenue Luggage) here in Escondido. In the mall where the boutique is located is another John's Fifth Avenue with a far better selection then the one here; the two shops are visible from one another, and I suspect that many visitors to MB end up across the way at John's for their purchases.
