46 mins left.  I always wondered about these, like what if someone breaks it and sends it for warranty?

They would probably offer them a Raptor as a replacement.  :facepalm:

Went for $152.50 + $7.89 shipping.

I figured I would put that up for future reference in case someone needs to know and that ebay thread becomes long since gone.

There is no replacement for the genus, I have three of them and they will leave me when I am dead!

I'm not surprised it went for so much just glad this is not a tool I'm interested in.

All three Leatherman Pruners are in demand these days, with the Vista, Hybrid and Genus all mostly selling for well over $US 100.00 on ebay, with lots of enthusiastic bidders. 

But sometimes you can get lucky, so its worth keeping your eye out.  In Oct last year I scored a Genus in excellent condition for a Buy-It-Now price of $US 45.00 (including shipping within the US).  I almost scorched my fingers I was typing so fast to get that one before someone else snaffled it.
