What is the proper ordering protocol?

Am I suppose to email UB at HI first and then tell everybody on here that I sent an email on Khukuri X or say it here first and THEN send an email to HI with all of my info.?

Just curious as it seems that some of the items are sold BEFORE UB even posts them.

I guess we have some very clairvoyant knive lovers here, on the forum. ;)

I hope those guys play the stock market.

Email Uncle first. Be specific about which knife you want. Be specific about your contact and payment info. Then come back and brag when you get confirmation.
 
Best way to do it is to call = 775-825-2279 (unless Uncle Bill has specificed "no calls please")

Send an email as quick as you can and have your payment ready!


Don't post until you've been told it's yours. Avoids confusion.

And yes, some of us are.

Or just plain lucky. I once emailed Uncle Bill to request a 25" Kobra at the moment he was about to post some specials that included a 25" kobra. So his initial post had it listed as "already sold." :cool:
 
Lot of people don't post when they've bought something.

Doesn't matter.

pre·cog·ni·tion n.
Knowledge of something in advance of its occurrence, especially by extrasensory perception; clairvoyance.



Cabbit:
I stand corrected, my mistake
but If your going to correct me at least spell the word right.
Correct spelling is precognitive.

All Others:
Thanks guys for the heads up. I'll keep that in mind.

I *knew* you were going to argue about the spelling...
 
I was trying to make a joke about knowing it ahead of time. I guess it works best if Bruise does it...

Naisty, don't feel to bad, I knew it was a joke. :)

I take my lessons in feeding frenzys from The Duck. That guy is crafty. :D :p

That's because everyone thinks I'm an idiot.




Here's how I order...

Short greeting... (Hello Uncle or O' vendor of Khukuries or something similar)

Description of Item... (Is that (6 foot 35 pound AK) from August 18th) still available?

Payment Method... If so, I'll pay wit da paypal

Shipping goodies... If you're out of the US ask for the cost of shipping here

Special instructions... (please coat the blade in syrup before shipping)

Address... Please ship it to...

me
my house
my state
zoop code

Complimentary close... flattery helps here....


That's how I send em' anyways.
I think this covers everything. If Uncle Bill has already sold it to some other sticky fingered individual, you haven't sent any money. Also, If you're sending a cheque, he has the address to ship to whilst waiting for the cheque.

Of course I think I'm not the only one who has sent something like this at one time or another...

m43.. gimme
 
Bruise - Does it help to mention that you have a full compliment of medals?
 
Of course. I don't think Uncle Bill can say no to a bonafide Internet hero such as myself.

One time he said to me, "I'll just tell Nasty that that knife has already been sold. After all you've gone through on the internet you deserve it." :rolleyes: ;) :)
