New question - nobody has mentioned platinum. It seems to me that if your paying top dollar for a nib you want it to be a bit more flashy than steel. Gold we all know about, but I'm assuming that any mention of steel is a colour match thing rather than a cost thing. Is the colour of the nib important I wonder. Is it worth stocking  "white" nibs as well as a gold nibs? The perceived value of platinum in the pen customer's eye is very high.
