Hmm does the pic on St. Nicks' make it seem like the compression tab is not blacked out, what do you guys think? deal breaker?

I have the DLC version of the CPM 10V PM2 exclusive and the tab is not blacked out. Doesn't bother me at all, but everyone is different.

Welcome to the forum, by the way. :)

Even though it may hurt my chances at getting a future drop, I will drop a little 'how to get a St. Nicks exclusive' wisdom. I'm three for three on my successful attempts I'll tell you whats worked for me.
I've bought all three with my cell phone. 2 on wifi, one on cellular connection. Having decent wifi speed will never hurt.
I start hitting the refresh button every minute starting at 5 minutes till drop. Sometimes drops happen earlier than advertised. Hit the refresh button, right as the clock strikes the time.
I always enter all my info manually, I know auto fill might be faster, but it isn't broke so I don't fix it. Do what works for you in that regard.

TLDR: The real secret here, is to realize that having it in the cart means nothing, until you finalize the order and get a confirmation number, it's not yours yet.

So with that in mind add to cart, check out, enter info, and hit submit as fast as you can. Here's another tip, as long as you enter payment info correctly, and you get your confirmation number, you can call the store and make changes to your order after you've secured your spot. Upgrade shipping, change an address number you got wrong, add another knife to the order, what ever.

Anyways hope that helps :D Good luck spyderfans.

If I get one of these I’d try to trade for a Manix2 Rex with cash making up the difference. I’m thinking about it.

Im going for it. I missed out on the Manix so hopefully I get this one!

Tut tut! Places everyone!

On your marks...

Easy peasy! :)

Got it.

That was easy. Took me 1 min to check out.

under 1 minutes wow

Gone in 1 minute 40 seconds!

Sold out faster than the Manix 2.

Got one. Nice easy checkout.

It was sold out before my cc processed and I was in at the stroke of 4.

I got one but wow is that the fastest an exclusive has ever sold out?

Same here. Their shopping cart/check out sucks

Not a nice and easy check out!

Ordered and in my cart, literally punching in CC info and sent; informed that item was sold out. Pathetic. Lost a customer for good.

I must have been at the 1:50 Mark, because it showed sold out after the last step of payment, took my lunch break at 12:30p just for this too and still missed it.

Made it all the way through and then it tells me cc didnt match address, but it did... and of course it was out when I entered it again...

-pd

Wow, that went quick. Their website said due to high traffic I had to wait a minute to check out, but it was holding my place in line. Luckily that worked and I got one - the 4v collection grows!
