:thumbdn: Well i am sad to say I had my first bad experiance with a seller in bladeforms. I purchased a kershaw spec bump from "harrymole", He received my paypal payment, said he shipped the knife and I never got it. The tracking number he gave me shows that the usps never got the package. After numerous emails of him "checking what happened" he said he would refund the money. He then asked if I could wait until the end of May as he was short on money, I said sure, giving him the benefit of the doubt, now he hasnt responded to 5 emails I have sent to 2 different email address. I checked with paypal and found out I only had 45 days to file a complaint, (which he obviously knew when he asked if I could wait until the end of the month). Now I guess I am just out of luck. Hopefully by posting this I can save other people some money.

All For Sale threads must have a pic showing the knife being sold with written date listed, your username & Bladeforums or BFC to prevent photo harvesting from elsewhere - scammers hate this one trick! The rules for The Exchange can be found here. Please read and follow them. Stop using Paypal Friends & Family and follow our best practices to prevent getting ripped off or having a bad deal.

A search of his alias shows that he has had some positive transactions here. I wonder what happened this time around. It would help if we heard from him.

harrymole was last on this forum 06/06/06 and is a Gold member.
He had quite a few knives for sale over the last couple of months. I wonder if anyone else has had a problem.

I have a few connections in Chattanooga that will be able to point him in the right direction (legally)
and they should be able to help out here. I grew up there, parents and cousins still live there. I also know a few officers of the company he works for, if it is the company I think it is. 
(Once the Blade Show is over, I''ll see what we can come up with, we should be able to start out quietly and keep escalating if he does not come around).
Hang in there.
Drop me an email with any info you have on him. Street addresss etc.
Chattaboogie PD will not ignore this if he does not resolve it quickly.

He was the first guy I traded with on Bladeforums and it was a good deal. Sorry to hear that this has happened. Hopefully some resolution can be had.
when I frist sent him money (P/P) he said it would go out next day, or day after.
week later he said he got called out of town for family emergency . week later he said computer would not boot and he was fixing it. not seen or heard from him since.....look at the dates in the post i linked to.. i had hoped he would take care of this (or has a good reason for the delay) and sends out the computer.. i have had to buy one to replace the one i bought from him..
if he refunds or ships it out i will let this go.....
