Question on a ZT0308?

Because I bought it from a trusted seller on here, so I took him at his word that it was new in box straight from the dealer. If you’d like to call both of us liars then that is your prerogative. But as I said, I’m not going to refund the money to someone who has been on the forums for less than two weeks and has zero feedback, without you shipping the knife back first. Especially now that you’ve said you would try to polish the lock face to “fix” it yourself. I have everything to lose and nothing to gain in that situation, including my reputation on the forum. I recently sent back a Shirogorov to the seller because of an issue that I wasn’t comfortable with. I shipped it back before he refunded the $600 I paid for it, but that was because he was a member long in good standing.

You keep trying to cover yourself by suggesting all this stuff that really means nothing to me at this point since you broke the trust factor when you failed to mention this in the sale. The knife may have been new in box when you received it, I’m simply stating what you have already stated. You bought a new knife and then carried it for a couple months and according to you never used it to cut with... I’m not arguing that as the rest of the knife looks good... but those scuffs on the lock face are simply unacceptable to fail to mention, all because it didn’t affect the function of the knife (lockup, blade play) In your book. Everyone’s definition of new is different, but again you modified the blade and failed to mention it to me, wether it was you or not it’s still your responsibility to mention it in good faith, instead of insinuating that the knife is “new never cut with”
 
Either way I’m done here, this back and forth isn’t erasing the damage on the blade, and as I’ve said I’m reluctant to send this back and pray for a refund.
For the record I was keeping this between you and I and you were the one that jumped in here and stated you were the seller. I hadn’t mentioned you at any point yet.
 
Both Tommygun86 (the original seller) and arourasphere are pretty well known on bf and have been around for a number of years. Im sure the knife was nib and exactly as it came from zt when arourasphere bought it and highly doubt that he would have modified the lock face in any way. If the seller is offering to take the knife back then box it up and ship it to him. You'll get your refund but its a bit tough to throw around the whole "when I sell things" arguement and make demands (expecting a refund before shipping the item back) when youre a basic member with less than a month of time here on the forum.

Imo, I definitely don't think this belongs in a thread about peoples thoughts on the knife.
 
Edge was unused and I didn’t modify anything. I carried it twice in that 3 months and that was within the first 2 weeks. It was too big for my tastes so I went back to my other knives that were smaller.
You’ve made your decision though, so I am done with this conversation. I offered a refund. If you don’t want to ship the knife back for a refund then there is nothing more I can do here.

Buckmaster, you’re right, I apologize for my part in cluttering the thread.
 
Its stuff like this that reinforces why I don’t end up selling my knives. Theres always some petulant child trying to get moms money back and a free knife.

the 308 is awesome and I need one, hopefully one goes up for sale at a good price soon.
 
If you’re implying that I used my mother’s money to buy this knife well your right! Great catch there bud! At least I didn’t use my dads money right....

The ongoing discussion on that particular ZT 0308 seems to fit better the GBU subforum. Nonetheless here is what I think.

A second hand knife should never be described as coming from the manufacturer that way. Period.

The refund should be given only when the seller receives the knife, which should be in its original form when sold.

The lock face does look a bit odd to me. I would email that picture to ZT CS to see if it is possibly factory.
