Tis might belong in W&C but will see if it flies here.

I recently took an order from 2 seperate people (who I wish not to name they MAY redeem themselves!) for a couple of the DDR/DeltaZ Osprey and went ahead and made an order. Then I go ask one when will I get paid so I can pay my supplier. He says, lost job, but am selling knives and you will get the money. Right, last I heard of him. Second guy has been jacking me around, "I want to use my credit card" So I give him my paypal account, nada. Send him email, what;s up? Nada. Needless to say I am not pleased.

I have dealt with BFC people with no problems. I am confused, what is going on here?

I really hate to name names and point fingers, but I am a business and cannot afford to back out on my deals with my supplier (nor can I afford to cover these guys orders). These two people make me look bad and it just confuses me as to why the games?

Have any of the other dealers here encountered the same? I am curious if it's just a case or screw the newbie or what?

It is unfortunate but it happens to all of us. If you ask for payment in advance, they say you don't trust us. If you don't ask for advance payment, you get what happened to you. Why don't you try to sell the knives to someone else?
 
Well, I do have the Osprey open for Pre-Order have for a while. Thing is I stand by my word/deal and expect others to do the same. I feel it's not cool to leave someone hanging, especially when I explained to them both that I needed the money so I could put the order in. It may be partly my fault, but when someone actually ORDERS a knife from me, I expect it to be followed through.

Just post their names so we can all know whom not to deal with. It is always fun to see someone make excuses in public.
 
The fact they don't answer your mails plain SUCKS. It costs nothing to be at least polite. Apropos PayPal, if the guys are outside US they won't be able to use it very easy. I have been kicking my a$$ for a few months and my account doesn't work yet! You have to confirm some small transfers they make you, but your bank will hide the info about the transfers so you are left in the middle. Anyway, this is no excuse for them, just point it out to eventual non-US buyers.
 
Well one got back to me and said either next week or in 3 weeks. So hopefully one is resolved.

Will try ONE more time with the other. Things happen sometimes. Maybe his isp is down, or his PC.
