Anybody Know?
on: August 24, 2019, 04:09:40 AM
Used to be I could find Vic plus scales pen included with a simple google or evilbay search from several venders in the US.  For some reason now that I NEED a set I can not seem to find a single US vender selling them pen included.  :facepalm: :facepalm:  Any one out there know of a US based supplier?

I noticed that too. I remember ordering two sets of plus scales a few months ago, but all the dealers are overseas now.

I just ordered some a week or two ago, and I could also only find some without all the implements  :dunno:

If you need a pen, tweezers and tooth pick let me know. I still have plenty from the Vic replacement part set I ordered a while ago  :cheers:

I don't know about the plus scales, but I'll echo the offer to mail you a pen if you PM me your address.

I've ordered 2 sets from ebay. Dealer was from Ukraine. I'm a little nervous about spending online period but I haven't noticed any issues and the seller has great remarks from purchasers. :cheers:
Plus it came with advertisements from the Ukraine! :mail:

Yup, I just buy them off the seller from Ukraine and wait 2-3 weeks. They always come in mint condition and have neato stamps on the package to boot.

The seller also has (had?) 84mm Sapphire scales that I haven't seen elsewhere so I bought three sets for my Golfer + future use/backups.

I know Central Valley Wholesale used to sell scales but I haven't seen them sell any Victorinox in over a year so they may have been kicked off the vendor list as I don't think they were supposed to be selling scales by themselves.

Thanks guys.  I'm still kinda hesitating  :facepalm: can't seem to decide on the scales I want or bring myself to part with the cash.  Seems sence Central Vally stopped selling them State Side they've gone up a bit too.  :rant:  So instead of dropping $$ on scales I gave it to the MTo opperation fund.  https://forum.multitool.org/index.php?action=treasury Just felt better about keeping the lights on around here right now. Eventualy I'll get off the fence and make a purchase.  :ahhh :ahhh

Yes that's right I just made another shameless plug for donations to the forum.  :pok: :pok: https://forum.multitool.org/index.php?action=treasury
 :oops:  just did it again...   :twak: :twak:

I've ordered several sets from the same person. No problems at all, factory scales, decent prices. I even got replacement electronic Traveller/Voyager scales which I've NEVER seen available. Bought them off eBay so I figured if it was a scam I could get my money back. No scam - everything as advertised.
