I quit purchasing cross products after they started making everything in china. are these manufactured and assembled in the usa?

The pen is made in China, as is much of what we buy. I recently purchased a flagship Cross pen that retailed for $650. The pen body was made in China, and the nib was made in Japan. The pen is truly one of the writers I own. Manufacturing in China is the reality we can't change. If you are looking for a USA made fountain pen, good luck, there are very few. One thing I would remind you is that the pen has a two-year warranty, if you buy the pen and it is not right, get it in for repairs and keep sending it back until right. It may be a hassle, but that is the only way we have to make manufacturers produce quality stuff and hopefully in the USA.

Is it possible at all to change the ink cartridge?

Thank you for contacting Newell Brands Office Products. The Parker ink cartridge can be changed.Thanks,Newell Brands Office Products

Is this fine or is it medium nib? Some confusion here, it seems.

The featured Parker IM Fountain Pen, item #1931645, has a fine point nib. We hope this information is helpful.

Does it includes a ink converter.

The Parker IM fountain pens do not come with ink converters.
