I've had the honor of dealing with some great people here on Bladeforums the past several years. All of my purchaces, sales and trades have gone very well.
This is a special case. This seller, Brian_T, went above and beyond what he needed to do. Here's what happened. Last week Brian posted a for sale thread featuring several Bark Rivers. About 15-20 minutes after he posted, I see the thread and jump on the Gameskeeper -- I posted "I'll take it." Well, it turned out someone else had already made arrangements with Brian to purchase that knife (without posting in the thread), so I was out of luck (Brian's ad never said "I'll take it" gets first dibs).
Anyway, I was disappointed as I had been looking for a good deal on a Gameskeeper for a while. I initially went to buy another of his Barkies, but mentioned to Brian in a PM that I had really wanted to get the Gameskeeper.
Here's where he went above and beyond. He immediately offered to sell me a different Gameskeeper that he hadn't planned on selling. I just think that's awesome. He sent it to me with a lefty sheath with a paracord baldric and a firesteel thrown in. He's even arranging to get me a new righty sheath for it. He was not obligated to do any of this as far as I'm concerned.
Brian gets my highest recommendation. :thumbup:
