Amazing price difference

Post by bl00k » Thu Nov 29, 2007 5:49 pm

I was looking around on the internet for a good army knife. And i stumbled upon the 'Green Beret' by Chris Reeve which seemed like a good choice.

I found one european store which sold those:

As you can see, it costs 492,90 euros there, which is about 700 dollars.

Ofcourse this is way too much to spend on a knife, so i searched on Ebay for the exact same knife, and i found this:

280 dollars + 28 dollars for shipping. Less than half of what the store asks!!!!! I checked some of the other knives too, and it appears they are all priced way above what you would pay on ebay. 300 dollars is also a lot of money for a knife, but it certainly is more realistic.

How this shop is still in business is beyond me. It certainly isnt cause of the sale of tactical knives...
