never had the pleasure of doing biz w/you, nifrand. just wondering if buyers have felt it necesssary to add insurance to the shipping, not specifically from you, as knives do have a way of flying right out of the box and thru the tape etc. once they leave the seller. no offence meant toword anyone, just wondering bout the level of paranoia. i made a purchase from jacksalturner (here), and all went well, but after seeing a few *isolated* horror stories.....well....ya know!
btw-- my e-mail works fine far as i know. i'll check my profile, maybe outdated...saw the top5 list today
(top5.com) plus a notice that there ws activity on this thread.
