Go back and offer to buy them all if they can give a discount because of the packaging. You got a good deal for $34 none the less.

Tell him you want all of them,then ask him to put it all on layaway.That way you can pay it off slowly and you wont have to worry about anyone else getting them.

I sold a Spydercard I think on BFC a couple years back for I think $45. I priced it to sell because at the time I had seen them on ebay for $65-$85. So yes, I'd say you got a good deal.

Cool knives. I bought several at the time and sold one to a friend who liked them. Still have two. One in PE and one in CE. I've never carried mine. They don't have bad ergonomics considering that they are a square knife, and they are rather big considering they are a wallet knife.
First they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not stand up, because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Great idea. You could flip some...make your money back, plus have a few to keep for yourself.

He had 5 all in blister packs...being new to spydercos, i didnt really know what they were til i posted on here...so i went back the next day...having a tough time keeping my emotions in check...or the drool on my chin..lol..musta tipped him off because he decided that maybe he should keep them...I had a heck of a time, but i talked him into one more....so all total i ended up with two SpyderCards with partially serrated edge and a C14SBK Rescue...I think its a nice little find Get out there and check out all those little mom and pop stores you just never know what you'll find!!!!!!
