There was a lot of internal debate if I was going to inform others of this dishonorable seller (Roikyou2 - ). I beleive it will serve the greater good and hopefully keep others from experiencing the same issues I had.
I purchased a TS PROF sharpener for full asking price from roikyou2 ($550). We spoke a bit about the sharpener and using it, etc. Later on the seller told me that he could get more money if he returned it and was thinking of doing that, but was worried I'd make a big deal of it on the forum. This was after I had already bought/paid for the item.
I told him the ball is in his court, I don't have many options. He has both my money and my sharpener, essentially having me by the b@lls. He decided to take the dishonorable route and un-sell a sold item, going back on his word - making him untrustworthy and dishonorable at minimum.
He sold his honor for $400 - the price difference between keeping his word and returning it to the store.
After I told him that and my money had been returned, he later said he felt bad and wanted to make it right so this transaction didn't get out onto the forum, ruining his reputation. He offered to send the sharpener to me and I'd pay him when it arrived. I agreed and told him by his terms we can continue.
He then messaged me back later and said he instead sent it back for a return and deleted himself from the conversation.
I am dissapointed, but I was blessed to at least get my money back. If you see this man selling knives or tools, I suggest you weigh carefully if you're going to purchase from him. You may not be in the same boat I'm in after a run in with Roikyou2
