He has a for sale thread but you have to have over a hundred posts in the forums before you can access that. Send a PM to evil-98 and I'm sure he'll be happy to provide you with the details of how you can buy these from him.

in the FS thread, it shows only the clamp bands... is it "you get what you see" or are there allen-head screws included? I'd hate to pay 6.50 each for a clamp without its fundamental piece.

I assume you haven't been able to get Petra's, or Performance-PC's to carry them for you? (Like they did with Ianh)

Very sexy.

Very sexy.

I offered a couple times to help him get them stocked at Petra's way back in the beginning but he didn't seem interested.

I understand wanting to make back as much as possible but it would have helped get them out to people 1000x faster.

edit: Plus those guys are super easy to work with.

I have proof that these do indeed exist and that evil can and will sell them:

Well speaking as a Yorkshireman( who are known to be very stingy wqith money-we make our scottish brethern look positivly generous!), at around four pounds in money per SINGLE clamp, you must be joking! Especially when all I want is a black clamp! I dont know how many you sell mate, but in this country especially in Yorkshire we dont simply throw our money away like that..............if You had them equivalent of at the most £1 per clamp they would still be expensive but people could be talked into it, but FOUR £ per clamp NO way laddo, that is just taking the mickey lad!

I understand you have to make a profit, but thats just plain silly. Unlike some people I know how much those things cost to manufacture and even REGULAR hose clamps are priced too high. Ill be surprised if anyone in the UK or Europe will be silly enough to buy them. YES they look good (apart from the gold with fake diamonds=thats just CHAV-like) I think I will have a word with my contacts and get them manufactured in the uk instead, for something like £10 for TWENTY of them. Im sorry but your really taking the p*ss with those prices.

I really like these things, but 4 pounds each is like $6.55 US each. I can't see the classifieds but is that really what they're listed for? nuts. :down:

yup the lads whos selling them is from the usa and selling at $6.50 EACH

So now anyone importing them from the usa will be subject to a hefty price PLUS delivery PLUS Customs import duty!

I have set the ball in motion anyway for those in the Uk and europe, one of my site sponsors ( i wont say whom) is already looking into this. I hope it goes well, i will certainly keep you all informed of this matter!

Again apologies to the guy selling these, but you have really brassed off a lot of people with those silly prices.

Me i think like the following

I would rather sell 10 thousand clamps and sell at possibly at £1 each and make only 50 pence profit then sell 50 clamps at £3 profit. You have a good idea lad (apart from the CHAV-clamps) however it is poorly implimented.

You guys need to back down a bit there. Evil is not making any great profit off these clamps as you are suggesting. The higher cost is due to the scale of how many he had made up, which was rather low. . .something like 250 of each color/type IIRC. Most of that info got purged a ways back in the topic. If he had many 1000's upon 1000's made up, yeah, they'd be much cheaper without a doubt, but it wasn't financially feasible for him at the time.

For those trying to get in contact with him, he hasn't logged in since 9-18 so be patient, he'll come around sooner or later. Considering it's been so long since his last login, life is probably too busy for him to remember to check his e-mail addy right now as well.

I always thought that these clamps looked fantastic, but I never knew how expensive they were. These need to move to mass production!

Personally, I think evil should have taken the same path iandh did and sold them to retailers instead of doing the heavy lifting of personal sales himself. I think he got totally put off by all the ppl that went gaga over the renders and said they would buy them if he made them, only to have many of those same ppl back out when they saw the actual price.:shakes:

I was just thinking about these the other day. back at the beginnning I really wanted some and pm'd evil but never got a response. I did not realize they would cost this much, what a bummer, still awesome clamps though.

I wish the best for Evil, hope he gets it all figured out

I have to admit that I would like to get a handfull, but in the end I would have to spend the money on something that would improve performance of my loop more than the looks of it. I still think they are fantastic looking though. ^_^

They are pretty, however they cost the same as compression fittings, so that what lost my interest.
However I may have the means to make a ton of these (similar) for cheaper..

Lamptron are releasing some clamps that are very close in design to the evil clamps (make of that what you will). They are still going to be stupid expensive.

yeah I saw their release
close... but, they are far too "bulky" looking imo...

I have two complaints against those ones... I know its hard but to do but I don't like that the screws aren't recessed...but it would be fine if it wasn't........ its just the ridges around the band I am not a fan of... I'd rather see a flat surface... hopefully they may release a different version as they have the means to produce/supply...
