Fandorin/Alex Cherpel - Very Bad

jbravo and I did a deal on a Mad Dog a couple months ago. I had put a couple Kydex scratches on the blade between the time we originally talked about a deal and when he decided he wanted it. I offered him two prices - a lower one if he was going to "Collect/trade stock" the knife, a higher if he was going to use the knife. It made sense to me as the value based on the intended usage would be different. Seth laughed at me and picked the higher price. Seth goes the extra distance to make sure a deal is honorable. If our company ships goods and they get damaged,we pay for shipment back to us, and we take it up with the shipping company. The shipper should bear the responsibility.

So much for my 2 bits.

Jack, this thread is not about you. We have heard all this before. You do not always need to come and defend yourself.

Hopefully this will work out, as from what I read Seth has given today as the limit of time he is going to give Alex to do what he considers, the honorable thing. Seth, let us know what happened, either way it worked out.
 
Jack,I have no beef with you,but really what does he say, she say have to do with this thread?Even if Seth made the comment to Alex about you,this thread has no correlation to that statement/opinion whether it is true or false.I'm sure Alex has had good dealings here in the past,I mean anytime a trade,sale,or purchase is made with no problem everybody is a great guy.Where the really "Good" guy shines is what his/her response is in a situation where there is a problem.In this particular case his past great dealings mean squatt,because he is failing to respond with integrity to this situation.He has put blame on the buyer,to offering the 8.00 to fix,to sending it to California for an"inspection" Out of these choices the only honorable one was to pay for the fixing.However,the buyer is not interested in keeping a repaired knife.The only other fair offer is for a refund with no strings attached.Send it anywhere he wants but for a refund not an inspection.I find it hard to believe if Alex was in the same prediciment he would not feel the same as Seth.In fact if the roles were reversed,I'm sure he would have been posting the problem in this forum as well.He's not on the receiving end of a bad deal in this case,so apparantly he doesn't give a hoot about the buyers situation.This is the kinda of crap that makes me think twice about deals here,especially out of the country.It is sad too,because there are very honest foreign formites that deal here,but all it takes is a few bad apples.
 
SEE WHAT I MEAN ALEX!! You make all Canadians look like jerks with your underhanded methods of operation. Hope I meet you one day so I can show you what I think of guys like you! :mad:
 
Jbravo is having the knife repaired and will sell it at a reduced price. He has shown once again he is a man of honor.
Alex on the other hand has shown his true colors, he has sold his rep and honor for the paltry sum of $375. Not much for a mans name. Hope a link to this thread doesn't show up anytime he tries to sell anything. That would be a shame.
 
This whole thing seems so senseless. This should have been able to be worked out. I am very disappointed in how this has all finished up.
 
Seth.....is my friend. And he's entirely honorable. So here we go;

alex is a good guy and i have done many deals with alex because hes not a punk and i never do deals with punks because nobody is better than me ans i have all of the best knives that i sell at a loss because then people say good things about me in the gbu forum at bf and that makes people buy more of my knives from me which i sell at a tremendous loss all because i am a good and not a punk and i dont deal with punks and never will because im jaxurscam so just ask anyone who has ever done a deal with me who is the best knife dealer i mean not a knife dealer and they will tell you that jaxurman is not a punk because i make them say so before i do a good deal with them and everyone knows that id do good deals even though i type like a 5 year old and know nothing about punctuation it doesnt mattr because im jaxurman and alex is my buddy and we never screw anyone because were not punks because if alex was a punk nd i was a punk wed tell you that we are punks to your face because we are honest and have the best deals around even if we call knives mint and they have broken tips that happened in the mail which isnt our fault at all because all of our knives are mint and cheap because were not punks but you are because you dont say good things about me not being a dealer and you can really trust a guy who writes a novel but stuffs it all into one entirely incoherrent sentence like i do every single time that i type anything so there you go you know who the good guys are and who the bad guys are so buy knives from me because i am not a delaer just ask everyone eho deals with me that i am not a dealer and never have been because dealers are punks and im no punk you punk.
jaxurscam

Seriously,......you...guys...suck. Spark, I have never had any problem with you whatsoever, but feel free to ban me for telling it like it is about Jack and this idiot Alex. These two are friggin' pathetic.
 
ROTFLMFAO! HAHAHAHA, OMFG!

Oh Eric, I'm humbled! :D

You do a much better 'TOASTERMAN' than I do....Oh Jesus, that was rich!

Bwahahahaha, oh man, I needed that laugh!

Ban you? Nah, more like give you an award!

Jeez, now I've got to go change my 'sig line' again... ;)

Thanks for the laugh!

Seth:Bad trade:barf:
Alex:get real.The man is not satisfied.Give him his money back.:confused:
 
Too late for that. The knife is on it's way to MD, this one's over.
He missed his chance to step up to the plate and do the right thing.

Mad Dog knife.........$375
Shipping to MD........$16
Return shipping........$8
Your integrity and honor.......priceless
 
obviously you cant read . where did i say anything bad about j bravo ??? if you knew how to read , all i said was that i did deals with both parties many more with seth long ago several with alex . i stated that both men in my dealings were honorable there was no attack on your friend and fellow "usual suspect " j bravo . i stated that there was a "falling out " with seth over a disagreement and misunderstanding . nowhere did i attack him.the only reason i even posted was because my name was mentioned in a less than honorable context . so yes i will defend my honor and integrity when someone tries to sully it . as for your calling me jaxurscam thats funny , my reputation as a man of honor and good guy on this forum is very well known indeed . eric, jealousy is an ugly thing ;) people like kwm want to jump on me for defending my good name and honor why??? eric , i think j bravo can fight his own battles no need for you to attack and make fun of me . just remember this NO ONE had more cool custom tricked out prototypes from emerson than me back in the days not now j bravo knows this he got many sentry removal tools rhinos prototype and onme of a kinds from me in fact , ask him who got him his emerson neck knife back for him gratis , when renny raines did not pay him for it .??? that person was me . no , i am not a "usual suspect" but i probably have owned more custom emersons and one of a kind prototypes than you or most of the other suspects . go ahead and ask ernie or mary yourself used to go to the house and hang out and pick up my knives many many many times so for you to imply that i am anything less than the honorable person i am - you are wrong !!!kinda funny , i was the original and one of the first of the "usual suspects " and if you dont believe me ask les robertson , or allen elishewitz i was there buying knives from ernie &mary before most of you knew what an emerson was . perhaps you should be looking up to me instead of looking down on me :eek: JAXURMAN :p
 
yeah that folllow up was kinda funny...actualy I nearly fell!
That post went from ....."stop making attacks on me" to "I owned more emersons then anyone here" lol
Thats about what I got of it :rolleyes:
 
If this turns into yet another "All About Jaxurman" thread, I'm going to lock it down.

Otherwise, for better or worse, the "deal" is done, let's let the thread die a natural death?
(hoping against hope.)
 
but what i said is true ;) not trying to be funny or ruffle any feathers. if people dont want me involved, they really should keep my good name out of it ;) both j bravo and eric blair had no right to make the comments about me especially when they were not only false , they were malicious as well :eek: JAXURMAN
 
I get five minutes, but I JUST had to read this entire thread. So what can I add?
1. JBravo is a man of enormous integrity and credibility. PERIOD

2. A Deal is NOT a deal until both parties are happy.

3. If Seth says the knife arrived with a broken tip, IT DID

4. Canada, Africa, Australia, The knife gets returned, Seth gets a
FULL REFUND. That is the ONLY way. There are no other "options"

The only one who's feathers are ruffled is JACK. Jack, PLEASE read the hundreds of GOOD things said about you. If you intend on getting through the rest of your life with 100% "approval ratings", then you have a tough road ahead. You are an honorable Man and have always tried your best to make every deal right, and stick with every deal UNTIL both parties are happy. Then you "ask" for positive feed-back. It is not about your knife dealings, they are wonderful, honorable, and you certainly have a great eye for great knives. It is about your EGO, attitude, and "hang-up" you have with ANYONE saying anything that is not positive about you. SO WHAT Jack, you are here to provide us with knives, and we all know you do so with Honorable intentions. Stop sweating the small stuff, and get going and start posting some sweet tacticals!!!!
BTW, of course you have "Sold" many, MANY Emersons. The secondary market and the profit margain is very high for them. Supply and demand jack, and you KNOW what knives move and what do not. You can make good MONEY selling a custom Emerson, and they do not sit on the "knife exchange" long.

Seth, I would NEVER sell you anything, EVER. I would give it to you as a gift to acknowledge the wondeful things you have done, continue to do, and will do for the knife world. You are an exceptional human being. I wish you the best, and I am saddened by this entire thread.

And about those two spydercos
:eek: :eek:
 
Eric Blair,

That last impression you did of jax, the one with all of the Emerson crap, that was even better than the first one!:D But you gotta tell us how you hacked in and used his I.D.. That is a cool trick.
