Just found one on ebay for $139.95. The bad thing was that by the time I was out the door on it, it costed like $160.00 or something like that.

Ill post pictures when it comes.

What really drew me to it was the fact that it is the same color as my favorite dirt bike manufacturer.

Never meant to "collect" knives, but just find what works for me. And by doing a lot of research, I found a lot of knives that I liked, I have carried them all except two-a sprint run White Endura 4, and I am pretty sure that this Millie wont be carried. Not because I dont want to necessarily, but because most places where I go, blade length restrictions limit me to a Paramilitary.

I have 2 other Militarys and sometimes I carry them, so we'll see what happens. It would almost be a shame to not carry the Orange Military, but on the other side of that, if I lost it, I would be heartbroken.
 
It shouldn't cost you 20 more dollars on-top what they wanted for it!
I never buy anything from those sellers that charge way too much shipping.
Plus is if you do lose it, it's really bright and stands out! Especially compared to the F/G!

I got two on pre-order when they first shipped so I'm good but are they already hard to find? To the degree that you have to pay $160 to get one? It is definitely worth it if that is all you can find. I've carried one of mine for almost a solid month now. Coming from someone who usually changed EDC's twice a week or so.

I just checked three stores and two had it in stock. Noticed they were back in stock a couple of days ago.
 
I think Spyderco is just being a little slower than normal getting all these out.
I understand the mother-load is due to come in June. So they are sorta thin at present, I would just wait if I wanted one(unless you get one at a good price from a dealer) and there will be enough that the price should be a lot more reasonable than what the lack of is doing on eBay to the price. (both mine were 131 each and shipped free, from a dealer but I got in early and fast!)
 
It was only 20.00 more because I had to pay sales tax.

It was definately a good deal compared to the $200.00 one that was also for sale on ebay.

I saw that one too. Don't fret the $20. It's an AWESOME knife. I'm the envy of all my friends here who don't have one and probably won't or can't buy one.
