Good question.

It's an interesting question, but I fear the answer will be that you have to be an official SF dealer with a substantial throughput to get your hands on one of these displays. They probably make the dealers pay for them, too. Maybe SizeXVs will be along soon to tell us more...

Dang i want one of those....
One of these days...when i find someone crazy enough in the US that will
sell me one and pack it up safely for its trip to Norway.
Like thats gonna happen...
Well i wont give up!!
Solscud..
Everywhere i have checked they say that they are for dealers only and
not everyone qualifies.
Id love to be able to take a sneak peak at the things available to dealers.
But for now,i guess beeing at the right palce at the right time will have to do.

That's pretty much what I was told by a SF rep when inquiring about becoming a dealer. Without getting into specifics, annual sales must exceed a certain amount before even becoming eligible to purchase a display case; lets just say it is a lot. :huh:

I'm still unsure of any part numbers. As far as obtaining one, I imagine the likelihood will increase due to the number of retailers unfortunately having to liquidate assets.
Being at the right place at the right time will be the key. Also, go to shops that have what you are looking for and make an offer-you might be surprised.

I vaguely remember that $30K spent as a dealer with Surefire gets you one of those for free. That could have changed though.
They are very well constructed and weigh a ton. I was lucky to find one within a 300 mile radius from me. Shipping is a costly proposition should you find one for sale.

Well thanks to Carpenter, I got a bent plastic one.
I made a contact in NY who says he might be able to help out. We will see if things come out.
Im only looking for the small plastic stands. but eventually the display case.

Does that mean you are looking for something like the Ebay item below? Are you looking for the complete unit or just the little clear plastic stands?

I recently coordinated the sale of one of these 6' tall display cases from a local retailer. A CPFr drove a LONG way to get it. I believe the tall 6 foot display would be uneconomical to ship by common folk using a UPS or something like that.
As noted above I doubt Surefire is real excited about consumers getting a hold of these but I have read a surefire retail agreement and it doesn't specifically tell the retailer what they can and can't do with the display cabinets.
I would suggest hitting all the local retailers and putting a bug in their ear that you're interested in buying it so if they decide to remodel you could hit pay dirt. In the one I worked with the retailer was remodeling and the surefires just weren't selling so the case was taking up valuable retail space. Everybody won and I can't for the life of me understand why Surefire would care. It was either sell it or put it in a landfill. This way Surefire's name is still prominently displayed in a Flashoholics collection.
Just my 2 cents.

Since I already have one of the larger display cabinets, I´m now trying to get hold of one of the smaller floorstanding cabinets.

Me too! If you find more than one, send it to me. It's not that far right?
