I apologize for beaing away, (travel for a family members birthday - I had intended to give this knife as a gift) I feel I have explained myself clearly, I had / have strong doubts about the sellers integretey, especially when I explained my circumstances, my dissatisfaction with the knife and I felt I was being accused of attempting to defraud him in some way. As I said the seller claimed to have inspected the knife before listing it for sale. When it arrived the lock up was dangerously loose (in my opinion) FWIW I worked at a knife shop here in Arizona in the late 80s that sold spyderco almost exclusively, since that time I've handled thousands of spyderco and other knives, I feel confident in my appraisal of it being faulty. When the selle "agreed" to refund my money upon inspection (a secondary inspection, when he noticed nothing in the first place) I felt less than confident and ask for a refund (also because I had invested the money I had allocated to purchase a gift for said relative, this was explained to the seller)
Yes I can buy new knives when I'm looking for "perfection" but there are plenty of great people here that stand behind what they have to offer and describe their items accurately. Also, this particular knife has been discontinued, it's only available on the secondary market and hard to find for a reasonable price.
Listen, while words are great at conveying intentions, it's our actions that define us.
If after anyone here reads my "bitch fit" and this keeps you from selling knives to me because you think I will find fault in them then I will have to live with that. It was not my intention to destroy only to warn and hopefully teach a lesson - but perhaps I'm the only one getting schooled here since it appears I have unrealistic expectations.
My final thought, I would not ask anyone to do something I would not do myself.

You behaved really poorly here, and I would never do business with you. Also, it's clear to me now that you most likely have buyer's remorse. I can't think of any other reason that you'd lose your mind over $50, and then demand the money because "you need it to purchase a gift for a relative". Was $50 that big a deal to you? Apparently so, and you should remember this transaction fondly, since it will be one of your last. Most people do a search on their transaction partner here when they buy or sell, and when they do, this thread is going to come up and you most likely will not enjoy being snubbed. You are more drama than you're worth, and that's immediately apparent.
Good work, man. Hope you enjoyed ruining yourself over a measly $50. LOL Nose to spite the face, really.
On the Ignore list you go.
