Sooooo the fiance found the invoice of the price point of my new mystery ranch. She was not happy. Immediately offered to go to Crate & Barrel with her to buy new kitchen furniture. Fight avoided!

Did you explain that had you bought it 3 months ago it would have been $600?
I tried to explain to her what 41% meant. She had a hard time understanding that apparently. haha
Metcalf vs Marshall
From what I could tell, the Marshall is just the Metcalf with more accessible outside pockets. I picked up a Marshall so I could have the capacity to fill it up if needed. As it stands, it isn't awkwardly large. I would hate to spend that kind of cash and wish I had more space, when I could get the larger pack for the same price. The larger outer pockets are nice to store gear and have it more accessible. Haven't used it in the field yet, so this is all conjecture. Seems like most people chose the Metcalf over the Marshall.

I couldn't decide and got neither the first time. Got the Marshall on the second go, I figure worst case scenario I'll break even.

You can also let her know that it will save on Physical Therapy bills. I had one year of PT for a back injury related to packing elk out. My wife didn't bat an eye when I bought my MR.
Solid concession on a shopping trip though.
For sure. I bet you will make money in fact. Someone would get a good deal paying $450 for a new pack that sells for $500-600.

You have to sign up for their daily email blast. Let's you know at midnight what is on the next day's schedule. Also if there is a particular item you are looking for you can email camofire and they will give a heads up on whether or not they are going to have it listed anytime soon. I knew about the packs going on there about a month ago.

I think they sold out of metcalfs so I wouldn't count on them coming back up
