Existance: Dont trust Him/Her

STR makes a really good point as well.

Esav, Sorry if I made a mistake not adhering to the rules of engagement here. I didn't mean to come off as as ass or anything.

Ethan, If you want to send my knife to me COD that's fine.

Who am I?
I am an opinionated person posting my opinion in sincere hopes I am dead wrong.

I am clear, and it should be clear that I am cynical, very very cynical. Furthermore, I am clear and it should be clear that I don't believe this guy and would not believe him if his tongue came notarized and again I hope I am wrong (and I have no problem admitting it when I am since it does happen:D)

I suppose the OP could have just left negative feedback and that be the end or just post his side and then we could all just read it without comment or chime in and post a "thank you" and nothing else saving our opinion or comments until we are the one personally aggrieved by this guy or another sca.........guy

Or I can feel horrible, and like a heel when the young man explains to me how he was still in a position to wheel and deal August 24th but was out of State (having difficulty shipping 2 other knives probably in one of those States that have no USPS and further prohibit FedEx or UPS)

http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=668886

told the OP the knife shipped already, have no contact privately and then post how terrible the past "few weeks" have been but was about to ship until that bigmouth asswhole Ira posted and now Chris can go pound sand (insert emoticon of choice here).

So allow me to apologize in advance;

I am sorry, so sorry for ranting often about being only as good as your word. I also am sorry, so sorry, so ver very sorry for using some of my life's difficulties as the barometer for fufilling one's side of a deal. I have no right to compare my life or to use the trials, tribulations and tragedies as a gauge to measure when to slam someone for being late or not delivering because from 2000 to 2009 both my parents died, my father-in law died, my 54 year old best man at my wedding dropped dead, my two most favorite dogs have died, a very dear close friend's son was killed in 9/11 and to add insult another close friend, schoolmate and Victory Engine #4 (1973-75) was killed at a Fire/building collapse in Astoria Queens on father's day, 2001 while as member of Rescue 4 NYFD. Oh, and my health issues (and resulting demon baby troll issue) as a result of a minor injury and the countless surgeries from 2001-2009 that include my favorite years of 2006 and 2007 when I was hospitalized for about a week every six weeks............ and through it all I never screwed up one deal, left one person hanging on a trade, failed to send money or the item on a sale, did not actually ship the knife or payment when I said I did, failed or forget to return a knife or money if the other party was not happy and never once forgot how to dial a phone, ask someone to dial a phone, never forgot how to E-mail or ask someone to E-mail, facebook, spacebook, myspace, twitter, skype, pony express, smoke signal (Damn, here comes the rant again!!! :eek::rolleyes: :D ) so that the lines of communication stayed open enough to prevent a thread from being started on GB&U.

And I am not alone!!!!! There are probably 10,000 others here or no longer with us (insert salute here for the Departed) who also battled personal demons, suffered illness injury or both, maybe even had a penis injury (Covering vulgarity of course ), the loss of family or friends, divorce (includes the standard financial ruin) that have managed to keep the lines of communication open, kept the other party happy, delivered payment or product and if they saqid something shipped it infact did ship!!! (Oh, I forgot) And never once needed their wife, husband, Mother, father, Aunt, Uncle or Brother (a biggie here on BFC) to post a bullshiit excuse why nothing has arrived in the mail.

In Conclusion
So to Existance; if you plan on not shipping because I said some terribly unfair, untrue, rotten or uncalled for comments please reconsider. I would be more than happy to pay the cost of shipping and although my cat just died I can and will paypal the shipping costs ASAP and a user knife as a symbol of peace.

Of course if my initial opinion was correct the only "peace" you'll get from me comes from a pine tree.

Now you all know why my friends (all 1 of them) call me.....................WAIT:eek::eek: a minute, they DON'T call me:confused::(:jerkit:

And Wolf makes one hell of a good point. Again



OK maybe I'm being a little harsh on Ethan. But really what made me open this thread was his lack of communication. I just need him to keep me updated on what hes actually doing. And of course send my knife. I can't believe that he still has email access but can't spare 5 dollars to mail a knife.
 
Still no communication from Ethan. I have been calm and patient throughout. I am starting to think that Ethan has no intention on following through on his trade with me.
 
I have no intention on not shipping these knives to you guys. It is hard to get anywhere. If I was a scammer I would not have given yall my real name and address. Or my phone number, which I spoke to you on.
 
Ethan,
So now you can't get to the post office? Doesn't USPS offer a pick up service? Can you tell me when you might be able to ship? Tomorrow? Next week? Next Month?
I know that tone is difficult to hear in written word. So I suppose it's a good idea to explain to you that I'm doing my best not to sound irate because I'm not irate, I'm just curious as to your motives.
Ethan, you lied to me. I understand that you were scared, and didn't know what to do. But lying wasn't a solution. What were you thinking when you told me that the knife shipped? What did you think that it would accomplish? Just curious.
-Chris
 
Because I thought it was. My fiance said she was on the way to the post office. Then we lost contact, when she was at her moms like I said. I am looking online and cant find a free pick up and delivery.
 
When the letter carrier delivers your mail, he can pick up any outgoing First Class or Priority Mail also.
 
I am willing to solve this problem since I'm having trouble getting my problem
with Raptor660, Jspyder Ninja, or whatever name Cody Wilson is going by now.
Existance, it appears you owe two people here knives & don't have the
money to buy postage. If you have a way to get to the PO, I will send you
$20 cash to get these shipped. I ship a lot of knives & it costs $7.30 to
ship a normal wt. knife Priority mail w/sign. del conf. If the ones you need
to ship weigh a little more, then ship them first class. So get your address
to me, I will send the money, & you can ship the knives, if that is your
intention. If you want to pay me back someday fine, if not I'll just chaulk
it up to lesson learned like it look's like I'm doing with the above mentioned
party. send your address to my e-mail address; twittles99atcomcastdotnet

Click to expand...

Let me be the first to say, "That's mighty decent of you."
 
That is a very generous offer. However, I don't have much time before I will be going away. When my fiance comes home tonight, I will ask her if she can do this for me.
 
Well, incase I ain't embarressed enough. I am going to county jail for a few weeks for an unpaid traffic ticket. I had to do this before for another ticket, but I will be back.
 
Lots and lots of excuses... lots. I hope this ends well, I really do, but I have a really bad feeling about this. One excuse after another...

Man up Ethan.
 
Existance, If this gal is your fiance, I would think you would know her well
enough that you would all ready know whether she will do this for you or not.
I assume, if she won't, she won't be your fiance tomorrow. Hopefully, you
are getting the knives boxed up with addresses on them so it will be very
simple for her once my $20 arrives. The envelope I send will have to be signed for. If this is going to be a problem, let me know so I can just use
a regular confirmation w/o signature.
 
If she is going to help out, let her contact us here for instructions on packing and shipping, or the problems will just be compounded when an unsecured, improperly wrapped knife tears its way out of a poorly sealed box.

I am sorry about your legal troubles. Don't let them distract you forever. Learn to do one thing right before moving on to the next. Life is a process of making all the mistakes that everyone warned us not to. At least learn from them.
 
We are very close. No worries there, I just know that she will have alot on her plate when I leave. When she gets home, I will have her take a look at this, and we will go from there. Thanks for the help guys, I never expected it. Wether it be this week or next month, yall will get your knives. Im sorry guys.
 
Hey Ethan
I'd really appreciate if you'd send the knife before you go to jail. Or have your girlfriend send it as soon as possible.
