    Well, I lost my login for my account since it's been a while, but I'm not a troll or newbie. Just wanted to know if Patriot Leather was out of business because I ordered a sheath 7 months ago, in May 2016 and haven't received it. It was paid for, here is the email:

    Maybe you can try to contact him through ebay. Just a thought.

    What's strange, is that I made a complaint to PayPal, and that afternoon (a few days ago) I received a 'tracking number', but the tracking number is no good. Hmmmmm...somethings fishy!

    I don't think Paypal will help you much after 7 mo's. But I guess it's good to make a complaint anyway.

    I dont know how long ago you got the tracking number but sometimes you get a tracking number when the label is printed and it wilk show up bad until the postal service inducts it into the system and it get scanned. Its happened to me a few times where it took 2 or 3 days for the shipper to actually mail it and for it to get scanned. Hopefully, he isnt scamming you....

    I have replied to you on several occasions so you might want to check your spam or junk settings. Your order shipped together, you have already stated by email that you received the package so unless the package was opened, both sheaths were received.

    I am sure there was a point in waiting seven months to inquire about a missing order. Our lead time when your order was placed, 5-11, was 6 weeks.

    Something is not adding up here. Two completely different stories.

    One story, two different points of view.
    First, I haven't waited 7 months for a complaint. I have written numerous e-mails and made phone calls over the last few months. NO response. The phone number listed just says that the 'voice mailbox has not been set up'. I only waited a while before inquiring because after I received the first (and only) sheath, I figured that the second sheath was an additional 6 weeks because they were ordered on the same night, so I waited. I only received one sheath in one USPS envelope.

    Patriot Leather must have a different e-mail address from my own, because i always check my spam and promotions boxes.
    This thread was a last ditch effort at communication.
    Apparently the issue is with USPS, because they never delivered the second sheath:mad:.
    Oh well, I'll just have to absorb the $141. My loss.

    Read this sentence what he wrote above.


    Your order shipped together, you have already stated by email that you received the package so unless the package was opened, both sheaths were received.

    This assumes one side has a monopoly on the truth, and you have picked which side that is.

    Alternative PoV: ]Read this OP and post 12

    The order did not ship together. The OP didn't state he received both sheaths; he said he received a package with one sheath so one sheath was received.

    I guess I'm inclined to believe the service provider with stellar feedback than a joined yesterday member with 3 posts.
