I often times see the PD345 Jet Clic / Quicker Clicker for sale on eBay, YJP, Mercari, etc. without the eraser cap and it drives me crazy. When I was a kid I would die when I’d lose the cap on my Quicker Clickers.
To see a packaged item without a cap is triggering me. Were these actually sometimes sold without a cap???
I’m on the brink of believing that Quicker Clickers, and potentially even the Juniors, might have occasionally been sold without eraser caps, but I’m still in the process of figuring out the circumstances and reasons for this. As of now, I’ve found no evidence of specific markets or packaging identification for those missing caps.
It would be disappointing to determine that Pentel simply ran out of caps and decided to package and ship their products regardless. However, considering Pentel’s past actions, such a scenario doesn’t seem completely improbable.
