Yes. Of all the knives that I fake-ordered that I probably won't receive, I am most hopeful to get the Zulu and the Chockwe I think. They're just cool, and designs that at full retail I would probably talk myself out of.
We can dream!

Ditto. I don't mind if I don't get any of them, but my family is going to have a lot crappier of a christmas if I don't.

Well good luck with this guys unfortunately I can't tie up debit card funds on a looong shot. They do however have PM2's for $89.34 directly from Amazon. Barring Armageddon you can bank on getting it.

In my head, the classy way to deal with it if it was a pricing mistake would be to let each person choose 1-3 knives at the price they got it for. That way we all win and they would keep us as customers.
Although, based on their single knife shipping charges, I doubt they'll keep me either way, but would be a nice thing to do.

I don't know how it's much of a risk. If you order with a CC and they don't deliver you can sick their legal dept on them and you get reimbursed. If they somehow snag your number and buy 300 gallons of gas in Guam it will be stopped faster than a streaker on the field at the World Cup.
One way or another this thread (and seller) is full of popcorn. An entertaining way to end a normally drab work week. :p

Search Spyderco in the "search products from this seller box. Not a lot of deals left, other than the Dyad.

It should be interesting if nothing else. I figure that my order will probably end up back in Japan. I was so tempted to order more than just the 2 Enduras but this has the stink of a dead fish. Worst case is I'm out less than $40 but my credit card company has covered my back before.
Oh to have been a fly on the wall when our orders started to come in. Either this was a great promo to get them noticed or somebody screwed up big time.

Alternatively, one has the option to
RADICALLY overpay for a paracord bracelet or many other items, including a few Spyderco knives.

Well...I hope I didn't miss out on something great here! The only things left by the time I found out were a $58 Titanium UKPK and $40 Urban. Best of luck to those who purchased! Send me a message if you bought too many knives and you need to get rid of them lol!
