I only threw them for about 10 minutes last night - they feel even lighter than my Stephen Bunting darts lol

Can't wait for mine to get here.

They are somewhere out in "mail" land.


Believe me when I tell ya... those gold 15's are super rare!!!

The gold ones look unreal

Yes don't they.

They also weren't released to the public.

Very few were made.

Nice looking arrows!

Well have to post pics of mine too, they are very light though!

Put some of the new Target Vision flights on these and have been throwing them for the last hour or so - really nice darts, and the normal set have now been christened

Nice!!!! Look at all that room left.

Will Buy when they will be at a180

Probably never Troll - I believe they are Red Dragon only, and once they are gone that is it.

Better act quick. There were 15 sets total. Can't be many left now.

Just ordered myself a set of the golds

Smart move Fox.

For the dart collector this is a major score.

After talking to a few people I've now come to realize how rare these are in 15g.

The silver ones were offered to the public and mass produced. The gold ones weren't.

We should make this the Dennis P thread and all of us should post em up when we get em.

See who's looks best.

Thats my thinking JD, Im not even a collector but couldnt resist owning a set of these

LOL the way they are selling they might start making them again!

They look a fair bit different in your pics than they do on the RD website Mike! RD seems to make them look really front loaded......... or maybe those pics are from the heavier versions?

Just hit no 397 of the year with the gold ones - fairly similar grouping to the normal set lol

That's what I was thinking. I've owned the 15g silver ones before. I know they are fairly straight.

Red Dragon's pics do make them look like they have a big bump on the front though.

It most likely is a generic picture they use for all weights. DC use the same picture for the Kim Huybrechts darts - it's most likely the same for all retailers. I can't imagine they would want to take pictures of every weight there is - it would take them ages to match the pics to the right link onsite.

Yeah more than likely, iv got a set of 26's here and they are very bulbous at the front but yours look nice and slim

Looks like they've all gone.

have they! ah well you have to be quick! wonder how many were bought by Darts Nutterz!

Silver ones are still up there.

I emailed the person who listed those darts for a bit more info on the gold ones.

Just wondering how rare they are, mass produced?, etc...

Mine arrived today

Not sure if I want to have a throw or not with them being as rare as they are. Certainly feel nice though

Got mine today from Red Dragon.

Broke them in shortly after a few tosses. Last one in on the right is very fragile!

Order all you want. You can get them for £5.

I paid £24.

I am also having a few problems with Red dragon with the Priestley's.
I ordered one set of Golds last Monday which should be on their way, hopefully....?

Then I had a think about how good the deal was, so put in another order for 2x silver and 2x Gold Priestleys on Thursday before they all sold out.
On Monday I got an email explaining the golds had been sold out, and would I like any other darts in exchange. They didnt know how this could happen and so on.
So I thought both sets of golds had been sold. So I said I would go for some 24gram 24.50 Thorton darts and some grip wax. As 2 sets of gold Priestleys cost 29.80.
Got an email today saying I would have to pay extra for the Thortons. So I asked them to just send what is here that I ordered, and refund what is not available. I will have to see what turns up.

Hmmm. Thanks for sharing that.

Looks like I'll have to settle for a refund.

That pisses me off pretty good.
