That's because people are hoping others will "stay on topic" as just this one issue is obviously confusing enough. Whether or not you think that these 2 issues should be blended or that TT just might have sold the same knife twice (your question and wording, not mine), it is again quite obvious that currently everybody but you realize that staying on topic is, especially at this juncture, the most prudent way to proceed.
To bring up an issue mentioned 13 or 14 pages ago makes perfect sense if trying to accuse TT of selling the same knife twice........as your post would seem to say. That possibility may or may not have been lost on others, but your posts more firmly plants that seed. The fact that that same member has an issue with TT's business practices as well, in the context of this specific situation, will only muddy the waters................considerably.
With the exception of your post, all others see fit, and understandably so, to essentially set aside that matter in hopes of realizing and expediting a positive result in this matter. I know what you're suggesting in your post as I'm sure many do...........if this happened, then just maybe that happened as well............right? We get it, but I don't feel that it's fair to anyone to approach this situation with your inquiry fresh on their minds....preconceived notions and all. How could the average Joe Blow not be so swayed.....? One must remember that TT has also had some wonderfully smooth transactions, per many of the posts made in this thread. They should neccessarily cancel out "onlooker96's" post and only then can we take this situation between Roman and TT at face value.............as best that can be done given the "at odds" that they both exhibit.
I'm not taking sides nor attempting to find guilt with either of these 2 members as may be the desire or intention of some here, however, the fact that any member, new or old, does not keep vital transactional paperwork in order to verify his part in each and every deal, is really dumbfounding, at best. So much so, that I would not choose to do business with someone, if I knew that they kept their books in such a mess. The problem with that is obvious and then it will be too late......I get it.
So leave "onlookker96's" post alone...........and let those that have perservered through this mess finish off what they've got a better handle on than the rest of us......either because we've had no direct input or because some of our input and suggestions have been less than well thought out.
I fully expect that "onlooker 96's" issue will be dealt with shortly and I might add that I hope that he is reimbursed fully, if that is the result of his PP filing. No one desires to be involved in such circumstances, especially on the receiving end (receivng the shaft as opposed to the purchased item).
I hope that this TT/Roman issue can be resolved shortly and in a way that allows both to remain contributing members.
