Yeah, I was an idiot. I saw it when it was first listed but am not an orange fan. Then when I did come back to get one the price had gone up. Came back later and the price was up again so I didn't get one.

Fortunately my sad story has a happy ending: two dark green 204P PM2's only a few months away.
Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

Do you mind if I ask you if yours got charged from a Cutlery Shoppe pre-order or from a Collector's Club?

I don't think CS got them in yet.

If you ordered that early, you'll probably get an email asking you to call in with your card number. I was in the first 10, and got that email today.

I see this news has already broken. Im late to they party. Just called my CC# in today too!! Cannot wait. I think its stupid that Paypal dropped Cutlery Shoppe because they didnt approve what what he was selling...like its not evident in the name Culterly Shoppe??

Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.

I wonder... there are quite a few dealers that accept paypal who deal with knives. Maybe it has something to do with the fees associated with using them to do business? :confused:

Gotta admit that I dont know the whole story (and there are two sides to every story), but Ive looked through his site and there is nothing on there that is not on other sites (no, i did not look at all sites...). That's what I heard...
