You bought the black one and also will be buying this red/orange one?
Sheesh, 9 bucks is really crazy. That means they are posting it at 7 bucks shipped but without registration.
9Cr13Mov product at $3? Factory price $1.50?
But i have been to China wholesale/WTCs in YiWu Zhejiang (small commodities but i also saw some lights/electronics like transceivers) and Shenzhen/Guangdong…… it’s sometimes crazy….but if you can sift out the good buys from the goods that are meant more for internal consumption that is (the general public can’t afford these flashlight stuff, even the usd$50 TF X100).
I was checking the price of several Enlan knives on this store yesterday, all of them are 10% off and some of them are cheaper than anywhere else.
Very good deal also on Leen 1203-2.
Nice. I almost ordered the black one but the seller never got back to me about taking Paypal. I just went ahead and ordered the red one because that is the one I really wanted anyway. Had to give my CC details. I guess if my card number is stolen, I know who to blaim.
Escrow do not send your credit card number to the seller. You will have problem only if someone hack escrow secutity system to enter the database…I guess and hope that the probability is very low, as for paypal system. Don’t know if it is possible to you to contact them to remove your CC number and details from their database.
I am looking at the Spyderco Paramilitary 2 with the S30V blade. Or cheaper would be the native.
If i wanted to have any hard use i’d use that…. afraid that the lock would fail or something (already fractured my ring finger 2 mths ago, fixed it at a cost of S$11k (holy $!) at a pte hospital but luckily 100% insurance coverage which has been recently processed with me heaving a huge sigh of relief)
The fixed blade seems very good though (I think it’s about 18 bucks shipped only)
Yes bladeforums is just like CPF but worse. The mods there are just as bad and most of the forum is elitist and snide. A few years ago they ran off many good members and left a lot of trash. Like CPF, it is so big that there are a lot of decent people but the “mover and shakers” are mostly trash who have no lives. I left BF after seeing how they treated people. Actually got a lifetime ban for no reason any mod would ever disclose. I asked but they didn’t know or wouldn’t tell me. I was a paying member as well.
My advice is never to pay CPF or BF. In fact, there are several knife forums set up who hate BF and were formed in much the same way as BLF. There is a backlash against both sites for mostly the same reasons. Once BF and CPF are gone, the Internet will be a better place.
Need to add registered mail as well, $2. Aliexpress is almost 99% registered, coz escrow sort of requires that (else you raise a case and they are screwed). It’s all factored into the overall costs of coz, but as you can see sometimes you do get gems.
