hi won auction on ebay a spyderco ppt at great price , taking a little longer than expected to receive item has anyone dealt with these guys?
 
I've read a lot of bad about them. I've dealt with them 3 times. 1st time took me over a month to get my ladybug. Next 2 times everything was okay.
 
I've won a few Spydercos from them with no problem, but I'd never buy anything there again. They have way too many negatives on eBay and I've seen the way they sell knives as limited when they are in fact not. Way too many straight shooters out there to take a chance with sellers like Spydieguys.
 
They've received "mixed" reviews, at best, on the forums. Most common complaints have been slow shipments, wrong knives shipped, extremely poor and sometimes rude communication/problem resolution, and misleading descriptions. As Jill said, there are too many better choices. My own experience with them is limited, but shipping was leisurely, at best.

I had a bad experience with these guys years ago. I ordered a nice Spyderco (persian) and it arrived with scratched bolsters. I contacted them repeatedly and got no response. Then I left a negative feedback on eBay and I heard back within an hour and it was abusive and rude. I am amazed that these guys have as high a rating as they do on eBay. That was my worst eBay experience ever--my worst with any internet purchase for that matter.
