It looks like he has been banned before, under the name "SPYfanman"

Since this is Feedback, and he's been Banned in the past, I'm curious as to how this Seller has 100% Positive Feedback...?
iTrader Score
Maybe he's just gunning for the hall of shame?
Anyway, I have posted this before, but this to me is an indication of someone I personally have no interest in dealing with.
Flipping is fun, a lot of knive coming in and going out, otherwise not much substance behind what you're doing.

Aside from the outright scams, this is probably the worst I've seen. Also, since the guy has some good feedback its really more disturbing.
I have to wonder, why in the world did SPY / Friendly decide to go this route? There is no way the guy thought this would fly.
EDIT: Just noticed, these guys have literally the EXACT same amount of feedback...WTF was the purpose of doing this. Its not like he was dealing with some noob with no feedback. Also, why agree to the trade?

Just got another email from him:
Hey Anthony,
Looks like your package is set to arrive Monday. As soon as it is received and inspected, I will go ahead and ship out and send photos along with tracking number for confirmation. Thanks again for understanding.
cheers,

That's not exactly a common name.........
I hope this doesn't end up going more sideways then it already has.
If I was in your shoes, I would just ask him to return your knife, and upon reciept (exact condition you sent it in) refund his $107.00.
If this is the same 'Ryan Posey' then I am sure he knows that even if this doesn't result in a ban, it's not going to help his knife flipping business much.
I would be concerned about what you're going to receive once he decides to ship his end of the deal.
Personally, I would just try to find the easiest and fastest way out of this mess....

^^^ This. Or you're likely to get another empty box.
Intercept the package. I wouldn't accept anything else from this guy. Who the hell does he think he is ... The reason he is so untrusting that you were sending him a quality knife is because he is a thief himself. The guys who don't trust anyone are the biggest thieves .
What kills me that he sends you another email thanking you for understanding. Still has big stones and I would take control away from him. Stop the package and hold his money for a little while and let him see what it like to be powerless . Please do it !!

^^^^This.
He's had ample time to respond to this thread and he's obviously aware of it. How is this lowlife not yet banned? Do we need to start posting personal information the guy? Perhaps contact an employer or local LE dept?

You 2 veteran member's, nailed it!
It's really nice, seeing so many member's weighing in here, offering their support...& you know, that when Spark get's involved in a GBU thread- it's pretty darn serious.
Best of luck, ssgwhite!
