Curious what the dealer sale price and the MSRP was on the different Military sprints.
 
Well, the MSRP should be pretty easy to find. Just google the name of the particular sprint run you're looking for.
Or go to Spyderco's website and look for the info there.

As for the dealer price, I think that would vary from dealer to dealer, yeah? So at best, you'd be looking at an average sale price.
And if you want an average, you're gonna have to compile those numbers yourself. I don't think anyone around here has that info handy...
but I could be completely wrong :P
 
I only have a Cruwear version, which cost me $140 from one of the good dealers. Had another that cost $180 from an eBay seller.

I'm sure some owners of the other versions remember what they cost.

Is there a specific reason behind the question or just general curiosity?

OR the journeyman members here could remember what they paid and post in the thread.
 
I paid about $170 for my CRUWEAR, but I was a bit late to the party, so I probably paid $20-30 more than most people.
I'd wager about $175-$200 for the blue S90V version.
I'd wager about $150-$200 for the Ti frame lock version
$250ish for the fluted Ti
Carbon Fiber M390, around $300-400ish
Green D2 - Around $100-125 I think?

I got all that info from using Google. You could have done the exact same with 5 minutes time.
 
Rasco, I believe almost all the numbers your Google research turned up are off. Maybe you should back off with the rude and unhelpful comments and let some of the owners of the knives chime in.

Posts like yours give a bad name to "registered users"....you post with arrogance but the fact that you have so few posts and post under anonymity smells bad.
 
I have...
CPM-M4 was about $220 and 18 month per-order wait (but worth it)
M390 - about $220 as well
XHP - $140 ish
Cru-wear was $160

Don't have the blue one, but its still for sale at dealer for $270

yeah, I guess only gold members or people with a lot of posts are capable of googling the price of something. Good point.
I take the time (you're not willing to take) to do a little research and help you out and you complain about it.
 
Rasco, the point of a forum is discussion and to talk to other people and hear their story on a subject. Replies like, "Google it" or better yet, a sarcastic and borderline condescending link that Googles it for you, is not helpful nor is it really welcome honestly. The bottom line is, if someone started a thread, they either don't want to, don't know how, or already tried to look it up somewhere, so saying Google it is redundant

I did provide the info the OP asked for, and other than the CRUWEAR, which is the only Millie sprint I own, all the other information was found on Google within 5 mins, so I doubt the OP made much of an effort before coming here and asking us to look it up for him.
I wasn't trying to condescend, I was simply trying to make the point that the fastest and most comprehensive way to obtain this information is to Google it rather than to post in a forum and wait for someone else to Google it.

Sorry I used a humorous website to make that point.
 
I hope someday an op can just ask a question and someone will answer. if you wish to be helpful rasco do it, thanks, great job.
It is sad rasco that you don't know BigMark 408 , he was attempting to get your answer nothing else and he offered you sound advise. The very sad part you were chatting with a true collector master, a member who remains casual, professional and reachable. Bigmark408 has knives I dream of, and 95% of members will never even see. His exchange post are more history, photo lessons. Bigmark408 simply is a nice member, that i promise you does not want or need my aid.

BUT WHAT YOU FAILED TO UNDERSTAND, WHEN MARK ASK A QUESTION , I AT LEAST LISTEN, BECAUSE IF MARK DON'T KNOW OR WANTS TO KNOW, IT'S NESESSARY KNIFE INFORMATION. please let the smart ones post. rb black
 
Rasco, I wasn't trying to say you didn't have good intentions and I could see where the website was meant to be humorous. What I am saying is that whatever the OP's reason for not googleing it is, it is probably not because he doesn't know how to use Google(which is why it could be interpreted as condescending). And the info you gave, in essence, is superfluous, as it is info precisely from where the OP said he doesn't want the info from. Lastly, your sarcasm and arrogance does not help your case at all.

"Can Somebody Please Help Me Answer A Question?"
No!

An example of a question that might spark debate or conversation would be something like "What's the difference between the steels on the Military sprint runs?"
But "How much does Knife X cost?" is not really a conversation, that's just someone asking for a price check.
Price checks can be done pretty easily using Google.
That's all.

I still looked up the info for the OP, after a little ribbing, and I got most of them pretty close.
Nobody else so far besides MichaelM466 and myself have bothered to take the time to even TRY to gather this info for the OP.
So lay off me, huh?
 
You can get most of your MSRP's off Spydiewiki.com. I truly don't remember the dealer prices well enough to quote.
