I’m brand new here, thanks for having me.

I’m trying to see if anyone has done business with eBay seller beststoreonline4u. They have an incredible array of rare knives, basically zero bad reviews, and are based in Ukraine.

I see a ton of red flags and was looking for either, people that have purchased there, or opinions on the store. Looking forward to exploring blade forum. Seems like a great group.
Thanks, Z
 
The red flags are enough to avoid the seller. eBay is flooded with counterfeit items of all types and eBay does nothing to combat the plague.

Agreed. The thing is in the past my “Spydie” senses have proven to be wrong and I’ve ended up with legit, sought after stuff. It’s a jungle out there!
 
There are some legit dealers on eBay and they have received repeat business from me, however they are outnumbered by the flood of garbage on that platform. I just got burned there on a used knife just recently.

Sorry to hear that. I really do try to avoid the used market and resellers as much as possible. I’ve been lucky so far.

It’s when you see something you’re really looking for that it makes it tougher not to pull the trigger. But of course, that’s what they’re banking on.

Just having something shipped from Ukraine would be enough for me to pass.

You might think, but I’ve had Hapstone stuff shipped from Ukraine a number of times (surprisingly quickl). I believe “Polish Custom Knives is out of Ukraine too.
 
I never buy knives on eBay anymore unless 100% sure it's legit. I got scammed a couple times when I was first starting and I don't want to take the risk any more.
I would much rather buy it here on bladeHQ or a known reputable source.
