Brand new Pelikan Twist came with multiple scratches at the top of the barrel. One on each side. All about the same length as the one in the photo except for one that goes under the sticker (not counting the mould line on that side).

Kinda feels a bit 1st world problems but I’m poor and this is the only Pelikan I will ever (short of winning lotto and getting incredibly lucky) get to own and feels disappointing to get a brand new pen that’s already scratched.

    I wonder if it’s an artifact of injection moulding then. Does it stick out a bit?
