The deal was much better the last time, or one of the last times. $27 more with the pouch since then.

Hey everyone, reposting this note about Spyderco's MAP from the PM2 drop:
Spyderco began enforcing "MAP" (Minimum Advertised Price) on January 1st, 2016. You can read more about that on their blog. You won't often find a manufacturer talking about this kind of thing openly, so I think it's pretty cool of them to do that. https://www.spyderco.com/forumII/viewtopic.php?t=69166
As a few folks have noted, "complimentary" does, in fact, mean given free of charge. That is precisely what happens when you join this drop at the Minimum Advertised Price (which is universally 40% off MSRP, for any Spyderco). Massdrop pays for the cases, but we have not passed that cost onto members by increasing the price of the drop. However, should you prefer to see your total reduced at checkout by $15 instead of receiving this gift - go for it!
Both the community and ourselves love to see Spyderco on the site, and this is the best way we can make that happen while still providing some benefit to everyone.

JonasHeinemanI didn't know they had adopted a MAP pricing policy. I also didn't see that you can decline the bag for $15 off. Not sure how that makes it free though, besides the fact that it's a loop hole to get around their new MAP policy.
Also, many premium knifemakers use MAP pricing and all are pretty open about it, from Benchmade to ZT to Hinderer and CRK and dozens of others. Not sure why you think they won't talk about it openly, as I definitely recall Benchmade and ZT releasing similar articles when they adopted MAP pricing.
In light of the $15 off, I may be considering this drop though. Still $15 more than I bought my girlfriend's for last year, but hers is a great knife and I'd like one for myself.

If the case is complementary, this drop should be the same price as precious Positron drops, not $20 more.

I think there's a typo in the title - it should be complementary not complimentary. Complimentary = given or supplied free of charge, not $15...

This one might give my ZT 0770CF a run for it's money. I HATE these pocket clips though, on numerous occasions I've had a bit of fabric bind up in the gap, and been unable to draw the knife from my pocket. It's relegated knives with these type clips to living in a drawer if I can't find a replacement clip. So I'll have to ask around. Does anyone accurately know the spacing of the screws?

Not really a deal. I can get it everywhere for the same price and the shipping will be immediate, none of this wait a month till MD gets it and ships it the slowest method possible - ie DHL. Who the hell uses DHL?!?! MD in general has lost its loving feeling and no longer has deals!

MAP would not apply as its not an advertised price and is members only.

KetelOneMany vendors we work with feel this way, but not all. Spyderco's MAP policy is new and, for the time being, is applied to all authorized dealers. The model of giving a gift with purchase of the case, which you can decline at checkout for a credit of $15, is the the only means of being able to make this available on Massdrop and offer any kind of added value to the community.
