Hard to find Surefires in Melbourne

[golok]

My sister just returned from a vacation in Melbourne, Australia. Before she left, I told her to look for that Surefire C2 for me.

She said she asked a couple of shops in the city. The shop people told her when she asked about the Surefire: "That's high-end stuff. Why do you want that flashlight? Going to Kuwait?"

Anyway, basically, they told her that only some specialty shops selling high-end stuff have them.

So she returned Surefire-less. Better luck next time, I guess.
By the way, the Aussie shop people she met told her that Surefire sells for more than 200 Aussie dollars. That's way above the normal rates, isn't it?

not if it's an M3
but E2s and C2s shouldn't go for that much, is true
try sources closer to home *cough* sheares *cough*

Translation: "We don't carry those. Our regular customers are cheapskates. Isn't there any junk here we can sell you?"

DEA, I heard Sheares is selling the c2 for S$150. Is that true? Or is it cheaper?

Dude, try eBay. Most guys ship worldwide, or just find a 'netailer and have them ship to you. Trust me Surefires going your way are ALOT easier to come by than Moki knives coming MY way! BTW, I picked up a Spyderedge Silverfeather done up by Santa Fe stoneworks for $100 at a local knifeshow, I nearly fell over!

you're in the ballpark range, i think

Okay DEA, now that I am in the ballpark, how do I jump over that SARS hurdle?

*cough cough cough*

still want to come?

imo it's dying off (the epidemic, not the victims) soon
and the variants that people are getting hit by are getting less and less virulent
wait maybe a month or so? should be ok by then
