Just to be clear today is the NEXT day after I received her package it arrived moday (yesterday) I didn`t get it until I got home and I made plans to have it sent today and my friend got sick what more should I have done. I could have used different words but the meaning is the same. Why all the foolish posts over a poor choice of words. I didn`t know I would have to post my work schedule for everyone , I sent her an email when I received the package about my returning her item explaining my busy week.

You had enough time to start this thread, so everyone assumed you have enough time to finish it.

Thebrain, you just proved exactly why I would not do business with you.
You hold others to high standards when you yourself do not.
If I had gotten the knife that same day I would have gone on my lunch break (am I right to assume you have that?) and ship it back asap. Not within a week, or whenever you can. 7:30-5:30, that's 1 hour before most post offices close (6:30 PM iirc).
You do it asap, even if you have to put off other things. That's what should be done.
You are a prime example of customers we do not want.
You pay $5, and expect to receive $20 back with ass kissing and yessirs and yesmams. If anything is wrong you raise hell over nothing, even after your issue is being corrected.

Maybe he should change his "sig." to 'what-brain?' -- ya reckon.? LOL
Anyway I know I will never do business with him either on trade, buy, or sell -- as he only has one friend to send back the knife = hmmm*! I can think of a half
dozen that I could have sent the knife back the same day I got mine back. The way I see it he wants to see her sweat but forgot that all of us are here
waiting to see what happens.!! Glad I am not a Mod. (no comment)
You all have a nice day and do unto others as you would have them do unto you.!*

True. And here's the key to all the rules: What are the rules of BladeForums.com? -- First & foremost, remember the golden rule: Do unto others as you would have done unto yourself, in other words, BE NICE. When you are polite to people, they will tend to be polite back to you.

How in the world did this thread get to be seven pages long!!??
5 pages of thebrain beating up on bladechick even after she admitted her mistake and made good, then 2 pages of him saying he'll keep his end when he gets around to it.
I know who I'll avoid, and it's not bladechick.
I CANNOT leave my jobsite between the hours I posted as my work hours (assume as you like LuisG.) also most of the post offices in my local area are not open before 8 am and close at 5 pm ,there are two about 20 min. away from my home that are open at 7 am but that would not allow me to get to work on time . I have many friends who could have sent the item for me but the one I picked got sick that day I asked them ,how should I have planned to avoid this Gadiator357 ? I had another friend (one in good health) send the knife out today . I said I will send it "WITHIN THE WEEK" not "in a week" it seems that has been misunderstood. Thank you for posting your opinions and feeling I have read them all.

All I know is you got your knife back, so stop with the excuses and get hers back! After all you whined enough over a cheap clam-shell packed Chinese knife to make people think you'd be slighted so badly it was horrible.
that is why I only use USPS. Jill please read my post above .

Any normal person would have just kept the damn thing and wrote it off. It wasn't like it was really hurt, considering what it is in the first place. My god it's not a collector piece.

Well, I Want To Thank Everyone For Their Support, And I Want To Thank The Brain For Sending It Back.
But, Since This Is My Last Post On Blade Forums, I'm Going To Speak My Mind, And I'm Saying What I Wish.
I Am PISSED. You Don't Even Know, This Whole Thread Has Ruined Everything For Me. I'm A GOOD Trader And I KNOW I Am.
thebrain Knows I Am, Even Though He Said The Knife Had Wear.
IT'S A KNIFE IN A CLAMSHELL.
Go Find A USA Made Knife In A Clamshell, I BET It Has At Least A Couple Of Small Flaws.
Also, I Know That Pocket Clip Didn't Look Like That When I Sent The Knife, Though I'm Not Accusing Anyone Of Anything.
But Since This Thread I've Had Nothing But Issues With People.
Yes There Are The Few Taking Up For Me, But Then There Are The Few Treating Me Like I'm A Dumbass.
I Am Not A Dumbass.
I'm Done With THe Bullshit, And I'm Getting Straight To The Point, Since This Thread, I've Had 2 Good Trades, And Then Made Another And Now I'm Getting Shit For The Tiniest Things I Didn't Even Notice, As I Received It In A Trade As NIB, And Never Noticed Anything Wrong.
So Thank You All For A Great Experience On The Forums.
But I'm Leaving. Now I Just Need To Figure Out How To Delete My Account.
Thank You.

Sorry, you can't delete your account, all you can do is not log back in.
But, I'll tell you when I came here I was 19 too. I didn't know nearly as much about knives as I do now. I took a lot of crap too and I didn't leave. I stayed and learned, calmed down and now I'm 24 and well respected here and I have a lot of cool knives. So, do what you want, but if I were you, I wouldn't allow the actions of a few rule me.

Nobody can delete your account, it will be here waiting for you if you ever decide to come back!
Sorry to hear that, I think you should definitely stay however and take a seat back and relax. Thebrain has been found to be lacking that which is in his username. A few people may act like you're a dumbass but also look at their situation, they have no idea what happened except what Thebrain shows. Don't let one rotten apple get to you.
People will assume whatever they wish to assume, that's going to happen anywhere.
