Any tips for a first time to pre-order fan??

[JulianHayes]

I have my share of Spyerco blades, and now I want some sprint run knives. But I don't know if it is safe to pre-order, or if the whole run is already spoken for, or if I need to wait to pre-order. SO, I don't know where to get the info where and when to get the orders in, I see the khalsa, foundry, lava, and some other sprints this year that I really don't want to miss out on due to my lack of knowledge. Any tips would be appreciated, thanks, julian

Keep checking back on this board and others regularly.Also keep an eye on the Dealer section on the exchange and you should be able to get almost every sprint...

Not exactly for Preorders, but checking this page from time to time won't hurt to know what is coming to your favorite dealer either. http://www.spyderco.com/exclusives/

Any reason you started 2 identical threads in the same subforum? Check your other thread for some answers...

I hate pre-ordering things for that reason. I am too impatient for such things.

My best advice would to be patient. I placed my preorder for the green P2 2/14/12. Almost an entire year ago!! Most of my sprints have come in a relatively short time but its always a gamble as you never really know how long it will take. Don't get me wrong, it's worth the wait but you should be prepared to place the order and just forget about it until you get an email.

Be prepared, they have no cure for what we have. I have 5 knives on pre-order. That doesn't include the 5 that aren't available for pre-order yet. My name is Jon and I have a problem.
