I yearn to own an ochre Malden and let it get scratched and scuffed. This would be a real stretch for me because I do not like scratches, scuffs or dirt.

Mainly vintage. Some quite rare and expensive. It isn't unusual for me to be carrying the better part of £1000 in writing instruments - one of my favourites is a modern Stipula with a replacement value in excess of £400, others are older than me and very difficult to repair if broken.
