Botach Tactical

i don't know if this would be legal or ethical or what not, but what about a general "blacklisted by bladeforums" or "BF's list of 'caveat emptor'" sticky thread that only mods can add to.

each post (or the top post) would have a list of websites (botach) and then links to threads with numerous mention of the business in question.

might it be a conflict of interests, what with 1SNS.com, but i'd consider it more of the forum looking after its own.
 
Sorry if i sounded ticked off, mikemck. I guess I'm just feeling a little defensive about not being a little more careful with this order. Fact is, I usually thoroughly investigate a company before I order. First I compare prices and then I try to find out as much info on the companies that are the cheapest. Then if I decide to order from somebody, I rarely actually order online- I call it in. I somehow feel safer talking to a human being and verifying that the products are in, AND that they seem like a legit company.

Anyway, I feel like I kind of blew it this time. We'll see. My order should be arriving any minute now. *fingers crosed* I'll post again to describe the outcome.

Thanks again everyone...
 
FYI, I got the package. no problems- everything was exactly what I ordered. It got here realy quick too. I guess I just got lucky. I was going to just take my stuff and never deal with them again... EXCEPT the boots I ordered don't fit. I mean, they sent the size I ordered but Altamas must run a little small, because these are too tight.

Which sucks because now I have to try to exchange them. Actually I'm so scared of getting screwed by Botach, I'm wondering if Altama might exchange them directly for me. From what I understand they have great customer service. Hmmmm....
 
Glad to hear that you got everything you ordered and that it came as quickly as it did. It seems that people have about a 50/50 chance of having a good business transaction with Botach. I sure am glad that yours was one of the positive 50%.
 
Thanks Keith. Everywhere I go in this forum I see your thoughtful and genuinely kind posts! You're always there to encourage new makers; give a "thumbs up" for people excited about their new pocket knife; and to help newbies (and oldbies alike) with all sorts of things.

On behalf of the BF community, thanks for being such a valuable and considerate member! Here, here!!

(sorry about getting off-topic; I just thought it was a good opportunity to voice something I've been thinking for a while.)
