I didnt want to post in this thread, but now I feel I have to say something...When tradign or buying a knife on the forum communication and information is key to a succesfull transaction...If your buying a knife especially an expensive one like this don;t you ask for pictures before you pay for it? Or agree on a trade...? You need to ask questions both parties NEED to have an understanding of whats going on at all times...If you have doubts at all about a knife you need to get pictures...I cna understand not everyone has a camera, thats fine, but ask specific questions..."is there are damage to the knife" Scracthes, wear, dings, chips, smudges...ect. once you have already asked these questions and agreed on shipping terms AND agreed on any return policies if needed then there is NO problems that will arize, and if one does everyone clearly knows whos at fault, and a thread like this will never happen...Its all about knowing whats going on and having good commuication with your buyer or seller...And of course disclosing any and all information on a given item proves valuable ina sale thread...I undersatand you don't want to lose money, but it only takes one time like this where you are disshonest where it hurts you big time...Instead of losing a few bucks on selling a used knife instead of a new one you lost your credit on the forum, which is much more valuable in my opinion...If you thought you were going to get away with such a thign you should have doen it on ebay, where alot of people get stiffed, lol, not on this here honest forum...

I try not to take sides, but I think everyone agress with what I said...You just have to know whats going on, I am guilty of beign a bit nonchelaunt with trades and stuff cause I know the people...but its still alwasy good to know what to do and expect the unexpectable..that way there is not a problem like this again...
