I bought 2 from this seller and they arrived today.

Disclaimer, I dont know the seller at all, was just looking for more donor parts and the price was right.

For me $50 is a great buy price for champs. I sell the plus scales out for $10 and that leaves me with a big pile of tools for $40. Well with shipping factored in, it ended up being $55 each since I bought 2, but still good deal in my opinion. That also keeps it just under the $100 value price to avoid import duty to Canada, so I was very happy overall.

Both champs were brand new and the new style with glass mag glasses, and newest Phillips variation. Says more than 10 available, so I am ordering more.

I just wanted to pass along what I had found.

Cheers

I might have to get me one as I am interested in the new glass mag glass. What is the new philips variation? Is it better/worse the previous models? Do you by chance have a pic of the philips heads, current production and whats on these swisschamps?

Thx.

I got 2 more of these in today. Both had the new glass mag glass. So I'm 4 for 4 so far.

I keep ordering 2 at a time do to the annoying import limit. I would owe duty on any order over $100, so it doenst make it as good of a deal if I were to order more than 2 at a time. Silly system, but that's the way it is. No limit on how many packages, just the per package value...

Also what ever happened to free trade? I remember if I was to buy something made in the US there was no duty, but now that doenst seem to apply. The steel I bought was made in the US, but I had to pay duty.

I dont know how that system works at all.

I'll bump this again as I still buy alot of champs from this seller. The original listing ended, then another popped up.

Only 1 left there right now, but he seems to keep getting more stock. I've bought 12 so far between all he has listed. All were new style with new mag glass.. so a pretty darn good deal.
