What a scam!! There were at least 5 minutes left and he closed the early reserve . Done with this! He pumped this thing up for a month and got everyone all jacked up about speculation on how he was going to do this and now he closes it early saying his clock said it was 5 and said my clock could be wrong. Haha. I had to to explain to him that it was closed and he couldn't follow me. Haha. My cell is off atomic time. Oh well.

This is the sort of thing that makes me want to buy even more knives from you, Mike.

I agree with JTB_5. I'm sorry you're getting so much negativity, Mike.

You call me at 6:02PM central and gave me a cussing because I had just closed it too early.... It closed at 5:00PM central.

It is just ridiculous. Yesterday I entered at exactly 5 CST. And no luck. No biggies. Fair enough. Today I figured OK I will do it 5 min before 5./Maybe better luck. If I don't get it then fine, no biggie. But make it fair. I have kept quiet through all this but enough is enough. And too all those that said it is only a knife. Exactly. So It is not worth the hastle anymore. And there are other dealers that have been awesome too that stay out of the Forums.
Agreed.

I entered for Nat Micarta, easy peasy. Went to check GEC site for production pictures......only 2 1 bone 1 blade. Wanted to see what the covers looked like. Oh well. Thanks for doing this!

Glad it got resolved; but I would ask you take it a little easier on me going forward.
We all make mistakes.

I think I should be the one saying that since I made the mistake, not you. I think you believed I was right when you said you closed it on your time clock and realized it was 55 min past due. My mistake not yours. You know I have been loyal to you as a dealer and I still will be. I have always gone to you first.

I'm only glancing at that on my phone but that looks like 500 or so entries. Slim odds...Hope half are disqualified cheaters! Haha only kidding.

Mike, like others have said, you're doing a fantastic job of trying to work with a really sticky situation. If I get picked that's great, if not...next time maybe. This is truly #firstworldknifeproblems.

5 to 6 CST. I tried at 6:55 eat so that would be 5:55 CST, right?

One hour difference. Your 6:55 was my 5:55. Cali is two hours earlier than me, so it would be 2-3PM there.
If you read the blog entry about it, I tried to find a time that would work from Cali to Australia.
