Maybe we can find a Hog whose loyalties lay with the Yard who can buy up all 50 of them and then have an unsanctioned Dog Bowl sale! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Dan gets his Blue, Dogs get the Scrappers, and Hogs can have their INFI.

You may want to check the bet; I think that in your scenario, Jerry wins the Blue. The way I read it, Jerry (only) sells them in his 'ganza for one minute. After one minute, if any are left, they also go up on Scrap Yard. Dan wins if:
1) The mil. overruns are not sold out after minute, and so make it to the Yard, AND
2) At least one of the knives is sold from Scrap Yard rather than BC.

I'm assuming that by HOGs, Jerry isn't restricting himself to inducted hogs, and is instead referring to anyone who orders from BC rather than Scrap Yard. Considering that a fair number of hogs will be waiting with orders prepared and ready to send as soon as the 'ganza opens, I'm not particularly optimistic that they'll ever make it to the Yard. Of course, since INFI is being offered and money may be tight due to the holidays, perhaps SR77 may not be in much demand.

I'm not sure what to think. On the one hand, after my DFLE order, I really don't have a lot of discretionary budget left this month. Also, I'm not a really big fan of serrations on fixed-blades. So, while I'm not happy that the Yard isn't even getting first crack at their own knives, I think that I'd probably pass on this mutt even if we did (unless the price is simply too good to pass up). I might change my mind by the time they go on sale, but I don't think I will.

it feels like a slight to Scrapyard Customers as being less important than Busse Customers

i can certainly understand and accept that. seeing the quantity, Jerry's materials, and the details of the sale to Jerry's customers, i just find it easier not to consider these Scrappers.

You're right - Dan would lose the Blue - my bad!

I think it is Inducted Hogs - or else there would be nothing stopping us from getting in on it.

I'm pretty sure they have to order from the Scrapyard Store.

Has anyone considered that the "GO GO GO!!" will be on Jerry's site 60 secs before it's posted to the Scrapyard site? There will unlikely be any other restrictions in ordering, the software is not that sophisticated.

I missed this post.

Maybe you're right - since these aren't even available to the Dogs, really, they may as well never have been Scrappers in the first place. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I do like it though. I'm all about variety. A Skelly would be great. A serrated Mutt is also a very cool concept and something I would love to have (in CG preferably - but if this "is it" I'd probably take one of 'em!).

i think dan should just make good of all this by founding his own collectors' club for the dogs with an exclusive infi blade with jerry's logo.

or we could stick with deals on limited scrappers, that wouldn't bother me.

How sweet would that be!? I'd retract all criticisms on the topic if this were to happen!
