Thanks

i was just seeing if anyone else had caught this. might get it for my gf to replace her fenix e05, or just keep it in the packageInteresting email from Surefire just now. Special edition in Pink. I think a good gift for anybody that wants something a bit more feminine.
I just got the marketing email from Surefire on Friday morning (10/16) for pre-orders.

Wait ... what ?!? :duck:

Right on!
Hey I'm not gonna lie. I'm a guy and I like that crazy pink. I like the Spydercos in that color with the shiny steel clips too. Let the taunting begin. Lol.
The donations are a nice perk but I think the color is fun.
Yes check out the website. The light and pen are offered for Breast Cancer month and some part of the proceeds are donated.
I tried so hard... You know what? I'm sure there is some bookkeeping involved, a different shelf in the warehouse, possibly different literature or packaging, (We'll know soon.) and other things that cost TIME as well as a couple dollars associated with doing a small run to benefit any cause. Glad they are making them, glad a portion of my purchase price is going to a good cause.
But would you pay the asking price of $70.00 for an orange one if the same percentage went to cancer research without specifying a type? Trust me, nothing misconstrued. I will happily post the packaging, etc. when it arrives. October is breast cancer awareness month, btw, and whether we like it or not, the time and effort put into marketing that fact makes it one of the most recognized causes out there. No desire to get into a wee-ing match over someone's business practices or use this thread as a place to debate the cause. Carry on... :sigh:
10% of the cost is donated. So $7 from each light. I just don't understand why they had to raise the price of the light? It's not a numbered edition, it's only "limited" in the loosest sense of the word, and they are probably making more profit to make a donation (ie, it can't really cost any more for the pink color over the black). Why not keep the cost at $59.99 and make the donation from that?
Dont misconstrue my words; I love my SF lights and support their effort and would purchase one if the color were orange. I say support all forms of cancer - not just the one that affects "boobies."
