BaliBowler has had my Benchmade 32 Morpho since 06/09/2007, and stopped communicating on 07/07/2007. My Morpho was passed on to him as a part of pass around, and it was supposed to be shipped off after a couple weeks of possession. I have tried email, the pass-around thread is still open for him to see, and I've tried reaching him by his youtube account, but have had no luck.

Apparently this has happened on one other occassion with the FileFly passaround.

If anyone has any contact information available on BaliBowler (primary email addy, place of work, phone number, etc.), it would be much appreciated.

im not trying to sound like a jerk, because i think he is a great guy...

but he was supposed to ship my bm42 a week ago, has not confirmed to me if he shipped it or not....and I dont have the knife at my door yet...and he has not replied to my email or pm either....

The last time we talked, he said his computer broke....but I see no reason why he cannot even communicate some message to relieve me.

He has not gone on his youtube account for a week, has not posted on the forums for at least a week, hope everything is going alright with his life.

his aim is balibowler.

no disrespect,

mike

Just curious here, was this statement made over the telephone or via e-mail? If it was by e-mail how could the message be sent from a broken computer? I think you have to be a Mod threatening banishment to get a prompt reply from him.;) Anyway I hope you don't get burned on the deal. Maybe you will get your knife in about six months:barf:

The last time we talked...was on the 26th...he said the reason that he hasnt gone on AIM was because his computer broke, and he is at a friend's house...he also said that on tuesday(the 28th), he will come on and send me the tracking #s for the knife...

he has not come on since, has not been on youtube since, im not sure what has happened....lol
 
I just contacted Matt's dad! I found him thru my paypal payment email. Apparently he hasnt sent my knife.

I told his dad to ship your knife back, cheers.

his dad's email is rodefran@syr.edu he is a real nice guy
 
Hope you get your Morpho back soon. I was worried that someone might try to abscond with a $200 balisong going around for a free passaround.
 
I talked with matt's dad about the Morpho, he shipped it out today!

here is his email.

Michael,
I transfered $160 to my paypal account this morning at 8:30am. Paypal says it takes 3 to 4 business days for funds to be avalible. As soon as they are avalible to transfere to your account I will do so. I will also email you when this happens so you don't have to wonder when it will take place. It looks like it would be no later than Wednesday. Hopefully that will be ok.
I also spoke with Matt about the other knife he was suppose to pass on to someone else. He still had it, of course. I made him package it up and we took it to Fedex and shipped it at 5:30pm. If you would, please email the correct people and let them know it is on the way.
Anything else I can do for you please do not hesitate to email me.
Sorry again for the problems my lazy son put you through.

Thanks for your effort, you are definately cool in my book:thumbup:
 
Was there any explanation as to why his son was behaving in this manner? It's great that he's stepping up and taking care of things, but it's a true shame that this all happened to begin with...
 
I am not 100% sure.

BaliBowler explained to his dad that he got lazy...lazy enough to not make a shipping?

I think not, I believe he IS scamming. Moreover, he did not have ANY intention of sending the knives.

For all we know, he might even have made another BF account and is reading all this crap now. =\
 
My father isn't around any more to make me fulfill my obligations. Does that mean I can get a passaround knife and just keep it? BaliBowler is walking the plank.
