I'm holding mine... maybe it was another Crazy Pala Overstock sale. 
By the way this thing is incredible. Aesthetically it's the near-opposite of my Everest Katana. Every hammerstroke that went into this sword was purely for function. I could write a book about the handle alone.
The balance is perfect, it handles like my 21" chitlangi. And it's lightning-fast, even in the hands of an oaf like me. Faster than the katana or 25" kobra.
If this were a double-edged blade I'd be afraid to unsheath it.

You led us on in our agony thinking that if some money dropped into our lap somehow we had a chance to grab it?

Congrats on your Tibetan! I still find it amazing how controllable and well balanced mine is. It's fast even with one hand (though I could use a bit more muscle 
).
