Now that people are posting their "seconds hauls" I'm pretty confused. I'm seeing people that got 5+ knives including Paysans, the full collection of 15V knives, and other highly sought after knives. And my question is how?

I live only a few miles from the Spyderco Outlet and have a 900Mbps internet connection, yet I spent 2 hours not even being able to get a single product page to load. How on earth were people able to navigate to 5+ product pages, add them to their cart, and complete the checkout process before I could even load a single product page?

Yeah, it’s confusing and exasperating at the same time. Not complaining anymore …..but it’s more about “how” someone can get 5 single knives and 4 mystery boxes when I couldn’t even get 1 knife in 5+ hrs.?

But, then again, technology isn’t my thing

I know it's a free market and all, but posts like these leave a bitter taste on anyone who wanted any of these seconds and didn't succeed. This guy (actually I've seen him sell overpriced Spydies on the FB groups for years now) is selling seconds at nearly retail prices and in the case of the Manix, waaaaay over the retail. I can understand trying to make some bucks over what one has spent, but for seconds knives, this is quite a despicable way of making a profit.

There’s a Manix 2 15V factory second on EBay……$399.99 Up from $90
