Orange Dodo Avalability

Postby Donut » Wed Mar 14, 2012 7:47 am

Why does it always seem like I'm starting these threads? I waited a couple days waiting for one...

If you see the Orange Dodo available at a dealer, please post the information here.

If I don't manage to get one, I can always shift to the Sage 4. :)

I've been searching for that elusive Orange G10 Dodo as well, and as you, I have no luck in finding one! It is a unique and crazy looking design that I wish to own, but I'm starting to think I may not have that pleasure. I'll keep searching though, and as soon as I find a dealer that has them in stock, I'll post it...after I order one for me! :p

I ordered last week from KW. They've just gone temporarily unavailable I see. Hoping I still get mine. Good luck mate.

I called SFO on Saturday and they didn't have any to sell me. :( They did say they are being released in batches and they hope to get more soon. So it's the waiting game.

I got mine from KW. They shipped it on the 12th, so it should be here in the middle of next week.

Probably only small batch released. My dealer received only 8 of them. I wanted to buy two, but couldn't. No worries, will be plenty. I paid $125, which I consider a fair price, but I think that I will be able to buy for less on secondary market later.

I am on a preorder list. Was told they would come in batches and that they expected to receive all that they were pre-selling. Haven't heard anything from the dealer yet so I will wait and hope.

I placed my pre-order with KC the day after it was posted. To check up on the order I called KC a moment ago and they said batch 1 already shipped out, which means I am not as far up the list as I originally thought. Then he said, "we plan to fill every Spyderco Dodo order." That was a good laugh.

I got an email from KC today, saying they still didn't have it (this is the email I've been getting the past 3 months). So, hopefully, I'll get one of the next batches coming up.

I, too ordered on maybe the 2nd or 3rd day preorder was open, so I'm crossing my fingers for one of these.

I have a pre-order at KC, don't know if I will get it. I did manage to snag one last Saturday from another store and it's shipped. But it seems to be in Post Office limbo in Florida since 3-10. Should have been here by now! :mad:

If I end up with two I'll be selling the other one, and not for the MSRP price.

havent heard a thing about when I'll be getting mine, pretty frustrating considering ive already paid and it was advertised they would be released in February, I assumed they would all, or at least mostly be finshed by the intended release date, this drip feeding thing sucks. Not to mention finding out people have ordered after they were released and received them already -_-

New Graham showed 8 of these a couple days ago. That was around 7pm. They were gone "quickly".... by the next day. I did speak with Jeff and Ashley and they indicated the major shipments of the Dodo's haven't gone out yet. They weren't exactly sure when it would be. There should be more available before long. I suspect this thread may have one of the first "notices of availability". :D

I feel your pain, Donut. :( I too placed a pre-order with KC and have been playing the waiting game ever since. Oh well. I suppose patience is a virtue after all (or so I've been told :p ).
