We tried this a couple of months ago, I just received notice that I can purchase black tangs. I only have a few hours though to purchase them and then some other lucky retailer will gobble them up. They retail for $999.99, no joke! I will sell them for $499.99 ea. Keep in mind that another on-line store may advertise these for less however chances are they will not have them in stock. I am also offering FREE shipping!!! Please let me know as soon as you can, would make a real nice Christmas gift. Thanks,
