Most online dealers probably don't have any left, so if you can get one or both for a decent price, they are both very highly collectible.
The Lum typically goes for $200 if not more, and I haven't watched the Lil' Temps in a while, but $140 sounds about what they're probably worth.
If the Lum is inder $120, and the Lil' Temp under $100, it's probably a bargain.
Welcome to the Forum :cool:
***Editted because I saw what you posted about the Lil' Temp price. WAY TOO HIGH. You can get them cheaper just about anywhere else, like Ebay or Bladeforums***

yeah i know its expensive but generally anything i buy here (malaysia) is expensive.
for example: a SALT-I that I bought cost me 70USD after discounts. thats considered cheap here.
will it be wise to buy the lil temp for 200USD if you take into consideration what I paid for for the SALT?
thanks for the welcome smc.

Hello Jyeo,
Welcome!
The Lil T is awesome..and currently I haven't seen any on [url]http://www.ebay.com...and[/url] the Lums are going for lots of money...if you could get it for $150, you might even be able to make a profit on it! :D

Considering your location, if you can get your hands on either of those knives AT ALL, I'd consider it a deal. It'll be pricey, but getting older Spyders over there won't be all that easy, so it might still be a good deal.jyeo wrote:yeah i know its expensive but generally anything i buy here (malaysia) is expensive.

Hi Jyeo, welcome to Spydie Central. I used to be married to a woman from Klang, been there twice...best country in Asia in my opinion...at least to a Kwai Lo (foreign devil) like me.jyeo wrote:thanks smc...guess ill just grab everything here since its all rare over here. do you know where malaysia is?

Are you Malay, Chinese, Indian, or something else?

No we are no longer married. She wanted to be a princess, I wanted a partner, we parted ways.jyeo wrote:hey zen...at first i read it as: i used to be a married woman from klang. haha. by chance im from klang too. weird. im a chinese. are you not married now? btw, i do see you around pretty often (forums) will you be my knife sifu? haha.
I'm not sure I am qualified to be anyone's knife sifu, but I will try to answer any questions I know the answer to in an honest manner. If I don't know the answer, I will usually make a weird joke.
