I bought two also. Good thing I did because the Caly ZDP is one of my favorite EDC's. Glad you got another one. Enjoy!!!!!!!!

Hmm....15 left in stock?

I would like one, but really don't need one, and would never use it. Why must you tempt with these things :eek:

I must resist...

Image
(this is the one on the website listed above)
firstly the the pocketclip is different, and the two spyder logos are a different colour, also where the blade material is marked on the blade it looks like a different marking.. does anyone know why this should be?

They're probably using an earlier pre-production picture, since what was originally designed, was tweaked slightly in the final run.

That's my guess.

I am so excited and happy that I was able to get another Caly, Jr. This is so awesome!! I am happy to have a spare Calypso, Jr. I would hate for ANYTHING to happen to my current Caly, Jr.

Yep. That is akin to raising the price of a snow shovel when it snows IMO. The CJs were $85 just a few hours ago and suddenly after this thread they jump up. Coincidence? Come on!

It's America...... if you were to sell your spare now, would it be at the price you paid for it????

I do have to comment on http://www.newgraham.com whom when they were depleted by the extraordinary demand and then received more supply, did not raise their price above their initial offering.

There's a reason New Graham has such a good reputation.

Ditto at what smcfalls13 said....

Jason that is IMO the right thing to do... I hit your site last night just when the tread broke on the Calypso JR... Went back a hour or less later and Wham.. What a shock... I will call ya in the morning and order one up... Thanks for honoring the original price to all Forum members.... Enjoy your stay here...
Easer to ask for forgiveness than permission…. :p
