I also don’t understand the concerns with a new buyer. I mean you get the PayPal in your account and you ship. Only real concern is something after delivery but I wouldn’t skip over a buyer just cause he or she is new. Jus t my opinion
I'd be more concerned with a first-time seller than a first-time buyer. But I'll give either a chance, because I was once one myself. Just think if every seller did this, we'd never get any new blood in the hobby.

Every single blade I have sold was described perfectly and the new blades handled with gloves. I have been a member since 2016.
I can’t believe I’m getting any of this when I put in the disclaimer from the beginning in every single thread I post. I don’t sell blades often and I cannot afford to take any losses. I do what I do to protect myself and I have had fantastic experiences every single time.
If the buyer even had 1 or 2 good feedbacks and an account older than a few months or some posts, I form my opinion on the entire package. Unfortunately in this case there was no feedback, his reference messaged me afterwards, the account was young and post history non existent. Not that I should have to explain myself, but I feel bad for his experience. You’re a staple here lone and I’m not sure what you are trying to accomplish by adding fuel to the fire.
Thank you... Great White suggested and agreed to giving me some feedback as well.
Mainly chargeback fraud or misrepresentation of the knives condition.
Also the occasional new buyer that may not be used to investing in such an expensive knife, and their expectations may be unreasonable because the prices are so high. Resulting in a PayPal claim I have no time for.
Every seller, including you, has the right to sell or not sell to who they choose. It's just a catch 22, you need rep to get someone to deal with you, you need someone to deal with you to get rep.
