Good luck I am still looking for my three Busses that never made it to my house. I am interested to see how this turns out for you. I hope you get it back. I would do the buy it now option and tie it up like previously stated and contact Ebay and the local police. Have your cops send the report to their cops.
 
Google "stolen property on eBay" says contact your local PD ( make sure you tell them it's being sold for $1200 - they'll be more interested) they contact eBay.

suppertramp,

I'm going to shift this to the GB&U. Folks sitewide may need to see this, and some who don't come here (to the Busse forum) might have better advice, too. I'll leave a permanent redirect here so you and others who frequent this forum can find it easier both here and in the other forum.

Funny that I didn't notice what forum it was in...I tripped over it earlier in the New Posts list and thought it was in the GB&U already.
I sincerely hope that you do get ahold of that BM-e LE...3 years late would be much better than never...
 
Moved from the Busse discussion forum to the FEEDBACK: The Good, The Bad...(and in this case)...The Ugly forum.

Unfortunately there is nothing that you can do unless you have proof that the guy selling it on eBay is the guy who shafted you on the trade. You will need records of the shipping address and a GBU thread or something showing that he did not follow through on his end of the trade.. Good luck man, I feel for you.

If it was stolen, this is simply incorrect. A thief never has title and so cannot pass title even to a good-faith purchaser. You sent it and it was, reportedly, stolen in transit. It's yours.

But you have to be able to prove that it is your knife. Paperwork showing you bought it originally? Affidavit from Busse or other seller.
 
I just found this thread. I remember this fiasco and it still makes me nervous every time I ship a high dollar knife that something will happen en route. Just because you insure and track the package doesn't mean it will necessarily make it there. This was a 4 month headache and I hope I never have to go through something like this again.

The knife was shipped to Oregon but was never signed for at the destination address.
I followed the tracking log as it traveled. It made it to the PO in Oregon and then "Out for Delivery" in the destination city. After that, there was never any update on the status of the package.
I was told that the knife was received and went on my way. About a week or so later I get another email saying that it was never delivered.

Since there was no proof of delivery I filed an insurance claim on the BMe. Months later, after jumping through more hoops than a pack of trained dogs, I received the claim and reimbursed suppertramp.

Thank you. It was so long ago I am rusty on most of what went on I was particularly reimbursed fully on your end but it just proved the knife was received by Ron and he kept the other knife sent to him that was part of the trade and just denied every thing I'm done on this now I was upset about it when I saw it last night but now I'm good just more proof Ron is a crook I spoke with the seller and I wish him luck on the sale

That's Rob. Rob Bransfield of Oregon. Banned member, gprippers. He uses this handle almost everywhere on discussion forums. And someone should be contacting the USPS Postal Inspectors regardless. I'm sure that they'd like a crack at someone who caused an insurance claim to be paid unnecessarily due to theft of a package...

Even though you are done with this, everyone needs to keep this in mind if they think about doing a deal with this person.
