I agree there. You lend out a Nitro Special or a Hunter Special, not a graded Parker.

But, I've seen it before, trusting someone with a hand shake and then get pissed on.

There was a thread way back on here were an employee always praised his boss's Parker he had hanging up in his office and when he retire the boss gave him the Parker as a retirement present. What the guy do? Turned around and sold it.
