Instead of arguing with me, try posting his PP information here (maybe also in the thread title), the YouTube name might not mean much to us but maybe someone here will recognize the PP account from a previous deal.
And that would expose the douchebag.
 
Since you used paypal you have recourse if it does not show,
the paypal message is from when he printed out your shipping label,
not neccesarily when it was shipped.

I have seen priority mail take 8 days inside my own state....
I would give it a couple more days.
 
chadridv = Which one of his knives did you buy? I just sent him a message asking if he has any knives left for sale. Might be a good indicator if he does/does not still have "your" knife for sale.

Thanks for the help. It was a new g10 spyderco delica.

And thanks to everyone else with helpful info and advice. I've been away from the comp. But will contact those who have reached out in efforts to help as soon as I can.

Chadridv - Went back to make sure I was clear on which knife you actually purchased. Was it the Tom Krein Delica?

Hey. Sale video! I'm having a little financial trouble, so I am trying to sell EVERYTHING. I want to say thanks for all the people who was worried for my health in the previous sale video. Everything is going fine, but selling all of this would help a lot!

  • Remington FAST Fixed Blade - $10
  • UltraFire WF501B - $10
  • CRKT Drifter SS - $15 SOLD
  • Byrd Finch - $5 SOLD
  • 4Sevens Preon 1 - $45 SOLD
  • Spyderco Delica ZDP-189 with Tom Krein Regrind - $80 SOLD
  • Spyderco Endura Blue - $50 SOLD
 
Thanks so much for the help. As far as I know it was not a Krein regrind. I was under the impression it was the standard foliage green g10 delica.

Thanks again.

you might want to take a look at the video again. The only Delica mentioned in this video (http://www.youtube.com/user/URBNSpice#p/u/3/K3wUGZXImXM) is the 2nd hand Delica with the Krein regrind. How much $$ did you send??

i gave him $60, but i forgot to mention the knife i inquired about i saw in a different video than the one you just post. It was this video...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgYBD0GBerg

in this he's just talking about his collection, but he mentions around 2:20 that he would sell his g10 Delica because he doesn't use it.

Thanks bro.

He is from Huntington Beach, CA. Have you contacted the authorities there?

thanks for the research. just sent him this message on FB. and opened up the dispute officially through PP.

Just realized this kid is in high school. Wow. Not that it makes it any better, but I was an asshole when i was 16 too.

"Subject: Are you ripping me off or what?"

"I can promise you, not only will i get the money back through paypal, but i will not stop telling any and every person in the knife community to never ever deal with you.

All i'm asking for is a response, an explanation or a tracking number. If you haven't shipped the knife, return my money. If you have, tell me the tracking info. If there is no tracking info, send me some sort of message.

This is a pain in the ass for me, but trust me i can make it more a pain in the ass for you.

How was the party at Andrew Tran's? Again don't tell me you've been too busy to write me a 1 minute note when you have time to "Party @ Andrew's".

'might wanna go private on facebook, especially when you take the time to block me on youtube."

an argument consists of two of more conflicting sides, making major points in a process of reasoning. I'm still not clear on the point you were ever trying to make, even when i asked you

"when was that your point? which sentence or group of sentences did you write that even closely reflects this being your point? was it this part...?"

Anyway, it's tough to let this go for some reason... but the truth is i don't want to argue with you. In fact your last comment, left me with some good advice. However, it was my initial intention to not provide this kids personal email address, i also figured that if someone were to buy something from this kid in the future, his name (which i did provide) would pop up in the Paypal info.

At this point though, he has written me back on facebook, and i will share screen shots of the conversation with all of you. They are quite amusing and he obviously does not give a shit that he ripped me off. so for everyone out there...

do not send money to:
name: Shawn Tran
PP Account: mrsparkles714@yahoo.com
 
This is where we're at so far...

What a piece of crap.The way he talks makes him sound like an immature high school punk.With that I don't care attitude.
Why is he making you file a complaint.He could just send you a payment for the amount you sent him and case closed.
 
This little douchbag just asked me in another FB message, out of no where!

"ps. are automatics allowed where you live?"

I am absolutely dumbfounded and dying to see where he's going with that question!

I wrote back...
"as for you post script, I'm not exactly sure what you're speaking of, and I am absolutely dumbfounded as to it's relevance. Automatic weapons? Is that seriously what you're asking me about?"

He's probably gonna try to send you some crappy plastic automatic to make you stop pointing out how much he sucks. He probably sold your knife to someone else.
