Update: 9/25/09
Jeff aka Hellz_Angel had notified me that I would be getting the Triton back. The Triton has been returned to me.
Jeff and I are now squared up.
Thanks to all for your kind words and for the support I've received.
Our little knife world is actually a very big universe
If you do trade with this guy, get your goods in hand first or your money.
edit: on BF he is HELLZ_ANGEL and OTFCRAZY, On KF is GHOSTHELLZ maybe JED55, - on JD: GHOSTHELLZ, maybe DOCEDOC and JHAYES.
Hellz_Angel (Ghosthellz on JD) also using the name OTFCrazy here on BFC,and I entered into a trade agreeement via BF in late July, maybe the 25th or so. I sent mine in two packages. Knife in one , pouch and certs of authenticty in other. All sent per his suggestion as First class, low value. blah blah blah.... I have received no DDR S1; Jeff claims he did not receive the Triton. He never mentions the other package. He seems very unconcerned about being out a $1,700 knife.
Gets better. A guy named Docedoc on JD posted a Harkins Triton for trade for a Sandshark days after Jeff and I agreed to do this. I believe Docedocs email was the same as Jeff's,now different. I believe it was the same because I found Docedoc's post by googling Jeff's email address and was led to the post. I confronted Jeff, says Docedoc is his brother, different Harkins Triton F-trade. blah blah blah. By then, there was nothing more to be done.
Gets even better: Jeff had many DDR's to trade, he listed them off...; I was interested in another DDR S1 with Carbon Fiber scales and asked for a picture. He sent me a picture of a second DDR S1. However, he sends me a picture from a dealer's site. I recognized the DDR S1 with CF scales because I missed buying it by a day or two. It turns out every one of the DDR's he has are from the same dealer site. I contacted the dealer. The dealer confirmed to me that they had never heard of nor have sold to anyone named Jeff MacLean nor anyone in Nova Scotia. Further more; the dealer disclosed to me that all of the knives Jeff claims to own were all sold to seperate individuals across the USA.
Darrel told me most of the DDR knives Jeff says he owns are a one of a kind; so there is little room for confusion if he produces a real picture of one. I have asked for real pics.... He cannot produce a single original picture of this knife, nor any other DDR for trade. Broken camera, Logistics, time of day, wind in the wrong direction ...... blah blah blah..... he simply cannot produce a picture. Why. He does not have them.
He will likely say something similar of me, I am sure. I have to rest on my reputation. Many of you have done trade or buy/sell with me over the nearly 9 years I have been at this and I have never burned anyone, never been burned by anyone; have always made right on any deal. The only prop I spotted for Jeff is here on BF. The guy posting the prop is a newbie, recently registered to BF and has but a single post praising Jeff. BTW: His IP address is the exact same as "one of the many" that Jeff MacLean uses. On JD, Jeff is using an IP address identical to two additional people, Docedoc being one of them.
So here is the current state:
US and Canadian customs or someone in the post office now owns a Harkins Triton Someone else in Customs or the US or Canadfian postal system owns a DDR S1 with damascus blade. Jeff says he is not a thief; I say I am not; and so we are both "out a knife" and are "even".
If I am wrong about him I am wrong and will retract this and apologize, but to date he cannot produce a picture of the first or second DDR S1, nothing.....
Yes: I should have known better. I do not have any good or lame excuses for my laxness. I simply trust people. I know. I am a dumb shit. I screwed up. I hope I save you from experiencing a problem with this guy.
