I bought a couple of knives from this fellow. Seems like a nice enough guy and everything, but I contacted him about 5-6 days ago (on the 25th i think) regarding whether or not he had sent the knives, and no reply. I noticed that he had posted something on the 24th, but nothing since on here. He has not replied to me, nor has he responded to the paypal dispute that I put through. Has anyone ever dealt with him?

:thumbup: :thumbup: If Brad has not responded to you there is a good reason! Brad is a straight up guy who loves Al Mars and is a Gentleman to do business with. I was away on business and contacted Brad on a custom scrimshawed buy it now with immediate payment on EFRAY, Unfortunately when i travel I will not use someone elses computer to send money. Brad waited a week for his paypal and was very accommidating about the whole deal, and in numerous transactions before this, My only question is why you would file a complaint so soon, LOOK at the mans feedback first, look at his history, I am just now sending a email to a custom dealer on Blade forum for a Bird and trout knife that i paid for a week to 10 days ago and haven't seen, everybody has delays, we all do this with alot of trust in the people we are dealing with. I am sure there is a reason I haven't received my Bird and Trout knife. But I need to have a little faith, and Do! Thanks John At infobound1. 
Why am I filing a complaint so soon? You appear to be judging me without the full information. I sent payment over a month ago (end of March), and Brad has explained the situation to me and everything is cool now. I emailed him 5 or so days ago to find out if he had actually shipped it since nothing came. I looked up his username and found no feedback on here on the search.
I do have faith, and I dont think I acted at all out of line. This is not even a complaint... this is simply a call for help from my fellow BF forumites to see if they know Brad or have dealt with him so I could maybe could find out what the problem was. I waited 3-4 days after i emailed him then I filed the paypal dispute since I was running out of time to file it. To boot, Brad graciously admitted his mistake in the matter and things are fine now.

corwinn99: I am misinformed, and my apologies, I unfortunately come from the al mar side of ebay, where you can't file a claim until until your knives are old enough to decompose naturally, I had thought that it was only a week, But again i have known brad through ebay for about a year and I was only trying to say that he is a honest guy, With running my business, I often forget or get involved with other things that detract from my timely satisfaction of deals, that could be finished faster, Best Of luck John
No Problem. Just wanted you to know that the item was paid for over a month ago and not just 5 days ago and that I had looked for feedback. I've been trading and buying and selling on this forum for a long time, just wanted someone to speak something good more than anything so I could ease my mind. Thanks for that!

Corwin99: I do not know what level member brad is here but he is primarilly a ebay person with nice feedback, I beleive he goes under semper 707, semper 777, I wasn't trying to snipe only make you fee better about his lack of response, as i have dealt with him quite a few times, Have a good evening john at infobound.
Corwin or one of you guys who know Brad, if you talk to him any time soon, please tell him to contact xrayzebra through regular email or PM thru holics? I have lost contact with him, too, and have an "unfinished conversation" that is no big deal. Again, I am not saying anything bad about the guy. I have PMd him and sent him email with no replies, and can't seem to PM in forums where he has been active lately. I am sure there is a good explanation. He is known as a good guy every place where his name comes up. He is cool with me, I just can't seem to catch up with him. Thanks.
