Phoenix, who got one?

#1

Post by HotSoup »

I saw all you Americans were getting great deals on the Phoenix. I saw them for $106 at KC, and almost ordered one, but after $25shipping, and $25 duty, it lost its appeal.

Luckily, a Canadian eBayer just put them on sale for $100, so I totally picked one up. Should be here next Wednesday! I've been looking at it for ages, but never could pull the trigger on a $200 knife I'd never use. At $100, its going to be one pretty pocket accessory :p (No offense to the designers, but my more pricey knives are pretty much manly jewelry for me :D )

Who else picked one up at these sweet prices? :spyder:

Shipping seemed high, $12.99, even to Canada?

Its because its expedited. Usually arrives in three days. I order from him all the time, and since he has the cheapest prices in Canada, and even beats some US retailers, its worth the extra money for the shipping. :cool:

The charge before eBay bucks is $112 shipped. Sounds like you made quite a lot of purchase on the bay. It turns out you have to make $650 in purchases to get $13 ebay bucks, and it expires in a couple months.

Haha...you caught me. I had an itchy trigger finger recently. It does suck that the bucks expire.

OK I finally decided to get one.... not sure if they have any in stock but they say up to 2 weeks for the next delivery etc.. So, once they are in I will be getting my grubby mitts on one to see how it fares amongst my other sexy folders. It'll make a great counterpoint to my Persians :D
