What Spyderco's have you stolen?
Spyderco C24 BlackHawk
I picked this one up on Ebay about two years ago. I stumbled upon it and it was a "buy it now" for $25.00. The listing had just gone up within minutes and the title was just "Spyderco Knife". I figured it would be trashed, but oh well its only $25.00 and could be used as a beater. This is what arrived at my home a few days later. The BlackHawk was pretty much brand new and only had some scuffs on the clip.

I remember when this was going on. I tried to get in on the feeding frenzy, but it was to late. Did anyone ever find out why these knives were being sold for those prices? Seconds? Just curious.carrot wrote:Guess you missed this one.... http://spyderco.com/forums/showthread.p ... =millenium

I bought a barely used, really-pretty-much-just-like-new CE Military from a guy on a forum (I don't remember if it was this forum or another); the knife simply wasn't for him. He sold it to me for, if I recall correctly, like $60.
The thing was like new. A really sweet deal. He included the shipping, too. I've had the knife for about three or four years now.

Okay. Screaming deals from the past year or so:
Blue Lum Chinese NIB - $75
Micarta Jester - $20
Lil' Temp (S30V) - $70
T-Mag - $50
Temperance FBs x 3 - $37.50 each
Black & Blue Dodos NIB x 2 - $65 each
Big Persian NIB - $68 shipped
Don't get me started on the Lum Tanto FB and Lum Tanto folder I passed on because $75 and $110, respectively, was not in my budget that week at the gun show

I definitely try to get mine cheaper than MSRP which is no easy task here in good ol' Europe, but some of those scores are just obscene.
EG: Temperance FBs - which I have been trying to get for <100? (~$132 as of today) for a mere $37.50 (~28.30?) each?! :eek:
You should feel ashamed of yourselves now, as the thread title is aptly chosen.
You can send me some of that contraband to atone for your sins. :p

Where are these deals?
I know the first part of this thread is a few years old but where in the world are you guys finding Dodos for less than $100? Seriously, my jaw is hanging open reading these finds.

I have gotten several good deals recently at the gun range I go to. They were left by the previous owners and the new ones didn't know what they had. I got a serrated Civilian with case, SS Cricket and etched SS Cricket. All new from display case without boxes though for $25 each.
I also have gotten 4 Delica ZDP's NIB ranging from $15 to $20 shipped online. :D :spyder: :D
