Appreciate it, brother! I thought about it after I posted and thought, "dang! I just alerted the most prominent collectors!!" Oh well, hopefully I can get it. Gotta start my collection somewhere, might as well start with the best!
Sig worthy. :thumbup:
I can't help but think your talking to people who have mostly bought one already. I gonna buy 9 or 10 extra to sell to those folks that weren't around. Prices will be astronomical, money will be made.geez, 3 signups this week? come ON people, i want to see... MORE. heck, there might be a special prize involved. like a BK-10! yeah, buy a BK-10, there's your motivation.
BUY BUY BUY! OMG, you have 6 business days left. less if they go home early![]()
Isn't USPS Priority (or maybe Express) International around $30 US? That may not cover tracking and or insurance though.
I just had a guy contact me about doing an international sale. Yeah, he says, it's usually only about $20 to ship it to South Africa.
So I look it up. Not so, I says. For a knife this expensive, I need to track and insure, and shipping alone (with a track/ship option) starts at $27. Insurance and tracking are going to be extra.
Also, I pointed out that I would have to list the customs value the same as the insurance value to cover my own behind as a seller. Cricket noises ensued...
Then out of the blue a while later, he asks if I can ship to a friend in the U.S., who will relay it on.
Sure, I says. If the friend wants to pay for it. If there are any issues, I'll need to show PayPal that I sold and shipped it to the ACTUAL buyer--not to some address out of thin air. Crickets again...
If it were a $100 or less knife, I might do it. But we're talking about a $350 Busse. Sorry. Not taking chances with my money.
even older. like the designer![]()
I got in on the BH BK-10 special.. Anybody know when they ship out?
