Dang it, literally bought one just yesterday at an Apple store. The employee gave me a ten-dollar discount out of the blue, which has never happened before, and this might explain it.

Wow. Lower than Pencil 1 pricing.
My daughter damaged the tip of her P1. Id' like to replace but ideally for less than the Apple's current $100. Cheapest I can find is on Amazon for $89. That still seems high for that version.
You mean the nib? You can replace those separately.

Whatever the case nice price point for a spare, got mine from first batch arrived quickly and its brand new works great. I use my pencil 2 a lot on iPad Pro.
