How fast did they go?

[intenseaty22]

Anyone bought the re-release DLT exclusive C20v Paramiltary 2? I wonder how fast they sold? I jumped on it right away

They lasted approximately 12 minutes. I unfortunately missed. Had one carted, then decided to look at the order details before pulling the trigger and hit the back button on the phone. That kicked me out of the cart to the DLT notice that all had been sold.... @ about 14 miutes in to the release. Oh well.

Blade HQ had an M4/Jade G10 Shaman release at the same time, it sold out in 5mins.

I’m pretty stocked, not so much for the actual knife, but for the fact that I was actually able to get in on it.

Thanks for replies. First post on here, noob if you will. Can anyone tell me how to upload a profile pic/avatar? Thanks!

Well dang... kind of glad that I didn't know about it or I'd have another PM2 that I don't need lol.

The sales page showed it sold out in ~5 minutes.

This is the kind of stuff that keeps me from even looking at some limited new release. It just isn't that important to me.

I didn't really want one, I certainly don't need it. But, I was still thinking about it and was on the road heading to a restaurant. Got in and sit down at 5 after checked on my phone all gone!

Me neither. But apparently it means a lot to some people. Gotta get the latest and greatest before somebody beats them to it.

Now keep your eyes out on the usual "for sale" spots.

According to our system the official time was 4 minutes and 47 seconds.

By the time I got the email BHQ had been long sold out of the Shaman. Dammit! I really wanted one!

While that's definitely impressive, I think the Shaman selling out in equal time might just be more impressive. Though we don't know the numbers there.

I got the e-mail from BHQ 2 minutes before the sale opened.

Yep, some of the Spyderco FB groups are the worst. General knife nut chit chat and the rest is people flipping sprint runs and other hard to find stuff. There was even one dbag on there trying to sell seconds for near full retail price last week.

People buy them just to resale and make $$.
I bet a lot aren’t even into knives.

I wonder how many of these dealer exclusives will sell out like this before the bubble bursts. Some part of me hopes it doesn't, because then we'd see, well, fewer dealer exclusives, and I'm a believer in more variety being better.

Don't buy from flippers and the problem will go away.
