I’ve been eyeing the Bogota pick set from Serepick for a little while now and find myself in the unusual situation of having a few extra paypal bucks lying about. For a while, the site I first discovered them on (itstactical) had the titanium version but was out of the SS (currently out of both). I thought this was just fine as I was leaning toward the titans in the first place but continued to see what other options were available. I then discovered the main serepick website where not only was the stock situation reversed, but ordering is not handled autonomously (which I prefer). My search continued and I discovered another site (preparednessdeals) cheaper that itstactical but once again out of the full sized titan. At this junction, I first laid my eyes upon the mini titans and became conflicted: do I want the full sized set that may not be available in my preferred material or the minis that may not fit my giant hands? Whilst pondering this new conundrum, I came across yet another site offering the picks: hardcasesurvival.com. From my reading and searching, I have noticed that suppliers of these tools are not exactly widespread (my previous thinking that the tools went from God to Raimundo to Serepick to itstactical/preparednessdeals) and have no clue if this new site is legit as it doesn’t seem to be mentioned in the lockpicking101 forums. If it is indeed on the up and up, they would appear to be the only sellers that currently have the regular titans in stock.

tl;dr

3 Questions:
1. Is the Hardcasesurvival site legit?
2. What version of the Bogota Entry Toolset should I get? (SS or titan, Standard or mini)
3. Where should I get them from?
