Advice requested...long post****UPDATED

It is not standard practice to deny the return of a trade. I'm with everyone else. Let him explain to us how he thinks what he is doing is in the spirit of the forum.
 
The person in question might not post here for some time, if at all, if he is up to no good. I think it would be best for you to give his name asap since there might be people that have pending deals with this fellow.
 
Based upon your description of the trade, you are being taken advantage of and the only way the other member can rectify is to reverse the trade or give you money for the difference in value since you stated he used one of them. I call bull on several things, first off, how is FedEx to blame when he stated the box that came back returned (?) was damaged on the outside but the box containing the knives was intact. Then you receive the box in perfect condition and there is only one knife? Seriously?
Also, who trades knives and jumps into using one even though you haven't received notice that the trade was complete so there would be no issues. Sounds like total bull and I think that the persons name should be posted both to help the mods who are here to assist in these matters and to help other members who may need protection from this kind of person. Too bad, it puts a bad taste in your mouth. Sorry for your trouble. Good luck.
 
Please stop BS'ing around and tell us already.
This dude is NOT legit and you are putting people at risk.
 
O come on!!!!! No deal is done until both parties are happy. How dare you even cut a piece of paper until you ask "how do you like the knife?" Do not even pocket the knife until you utter those magic words; "great deal, you are happy with the knife we traded for?" Only after this short inspection/communication period takes place should a knife be "used". I find it hard to believe that was the only knife in your collection........

So get that camera cookin and start taking photos so a consensus be made on how much money is owed. GEEZE, theses knives are not made of plastic and are made for hard use. Photo the hard use tat is so traumatic that a return now is impossible.

And I am a hearing a quackin here, and a quacking there, anyone else hearing it????:confused::disturbed:

Something sounds fishy here - FedEx screws up? Only one blade? Box intact? Outer box damaged and still no concerns raised? No, this is not how someone dealing with high end blades behaves unless there is an hidden agenda.

The only possible resolution, if you don't get the knives back, is the "maxed out" cost refunded for this missing blade, so you can buy one outright.
 
His knife never arrived, therefore he did NOT hold up his end of the trade agreement. This has little to do with "being satisfied;" the terms of the deal were simply never met by the other party. You are absolutely entitled to a trade back. You could trade back if his items were not described accurately, so not being there at all,is OF COURSE grounds for a transaction reversal. This guy should have shipped the first package insured, and if that's where the knife was originally lost, then he'd have to work it out with the shipping agency--not you. If he doesn't rectify this discrepancy, I whole-heartedly agree that a ban is in order, lest he try this nonsense with some one else.
 
He has agreed to send both items back and once received I'll send the item he sent back. More details as I get them.
 
Glad that is is working out.. did not see your above post


Kind regards

Paul
