Seriously, don't let what this guy did to us all turn us against eachother, lets all rally against a common enemy and stop saying things we're surely to regret.
In the immortal words of Rodney King"Can't we all just get along"
I'm also glad to see people are starting to get their knives back, That is a rare thing indeed once being scammed.

Wow. I've seen some strange things go down in my years here at BFC, but this one is truly otherworldly.
Maybe Mr. 49ers got screwed (no pun intended) by his evil cousin, maybe not, but I don't think he'll be trading here anymore.
I'm not one to say that it's best to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I guess it's plausible. But it's equally plausible that he is a scammer who got scared and wanted to keep himself out of the hot water. Who knows. I'll wait until the jury comes back on this one.
But he certainly doesn't deserve any accolades for "manning up" or trying to make it right.
I don't have a horse in this race either, but I sincerely hope the rest of you guys get your knives back.
Good luck.

From the Pirates...
If you think this guy is just some poor slob with a dipsh*t cousin....
one of the pirates did a little reasearch...
Chris Haworth... aka Screwthe49ers.
#1 on his life list: "Get off drugs."
http://www.43things.com/person/screwthe49ers
Here he is growing his own poppies so he can make some opium:
http://opiateforum.com/index.php?topic=144.25;wap2
And here's the start of that thread:
http://opiateforum.com/index.php/topic,144.0/wap2.html
Srewthe49ers is a junkie, and is probably sharing the same needle with his pos dope fiend cousin...
Hey Chris...a note from Ren
1. its really hard to get Heroin in Jail. Usually you have to do "favors" to the double lifers to get the stuff.
2. After you return the knives do us a favor and toss yourself out of a window at your local skyscraper.
3. your a junkie...and like all junkies you would sell your mother to Hells Angels for a gang bang if you could score a 8 ball of dope...so man up at least and admit that you either intended yourself to steal these knives or colluded with your shitheel cousin to steal them so you could score more Heroin.
4 thank your lucky stars you did not screw me....cause if you did....scoring your next hit would be the least of your worries.

Yeah. I'm beginning to think I should take back everything I said, except "wow" and "good luck."

It's not, but it's a personal issue that shouldn't have been brought here. We can't police someone's vices and we shouldn't try.
His story is far fetched, but we aren't in a position to call BS as we really don't know. I see a lot of people readying the gallows without a shred of evidence either way, all the while st49ers is communicating and people are receiving shipment notifications. If he's an addict, so be it, it has zero bearing on the issues at hand. What Ren leaves out of that damning post is that there are almost 4000 hits on st49ers when you type it in Google, including a flawless Ebay rating. Posting up 3 of those hits as damning evidence is careless.
Everyone needs to chill out and let all the packages arrive before throwing the guy to the wolves.

So now that's 3 people who got their knives safely back. Hopefully you all sanitize them. 
:jerkit:
Those of you that spend a lot of time in GB&U and have paid any attention to my posts in the forum know that I have absolutely no problem joining the piling on of a recalcitrant scammer. That being said, imo some of you are acting like total friggen clowns in this case. Knives continue to be returned, a process that started before the piling on, and yet the shit talking continues. :thumbdn:
St49ers might well be a pos thief, or he might be guilty- in this particular case- of nothing but bad judgement. Either way, as long as he continues to try and make good on the wrongs done in his name, whether by he himself or another, this latest round of BS reminds me of the behavior of shit stirring trolls and is far beneath the members in question. :barf:

259 positive feedback, 21 of which are in the last month...so I think many are jumping the bullet here, the knives are coming back in, his personal issues are just that and we don't need to know them. I dont have a horse in this race, but I have followed it with the expectation of people not getting their knives back so I was wrong.
It aint over yet but its early days and right before xmas (knives i have ordered are taking longer to get here in the last week).

I guess I was guilty of putting stock in to those links, instead of looking at the positive.
Its true that the personal habits are not the issue . The issue is making sure everyone gets their knives back....
Although my comment about sanitizing the returned knives was posted with good intentions, perhaps it didn't come across that way, and I am deleting it...

How could posting information like this help out the people who are trying to get their knives back?.
If anything I would think it would be rather counter productive.
I wouldn't be surprised if nobody gets another knife out of him.
I REALLY hope thats not the case.
But I wouldn't be surprised...

Dont turn this on me! I shared information that is all. I am also entitled to my opinion. I could care less about my "internet persona" What you see on the internet is what you see in person. End of story.
I am glad people are getting their knives thats good. Mr. 49ers is a junkie thats bad...
...my heart bleeds for you...:barf:
