I Purchased the Roxi 3 from W -reed2 on January 25th 2022 and Have still not received the knife, it was "shipped" the following day and the tracking has not updated from it saying the item is in pre-shipment. Reed was communicating with me back and forth saying that the package got lost and the postal service was shipping it back to him and then he would ship it out to me ASAP, at that point it had been a month and I asked for a refund. He agreed to the refund and repeatedly told me he would make it right and was not trying to screw me over, a week later I asked again and reinforced that the knife was insured according to tracking and was told he would need a few days to come up with the money. That was February 26th and I haven't heard back since and his profile has been set to private after asking for the refund. Reed was very good at communicating up until I asked for a refund. I did use PayPal Friends and Family which is on me(I know the rules say I'm on my own), however I am posting this as I wanted to warn anyone else doing business with this user should they read this thread.

The W W -reed2 account was banned, that’s why no login.
It was a duplicate/ alt account for a well known scammer.

I bought a Soyderco drunken and a microtech Dirac yesterday off of JKnigjt1. He didn't take post down and sold it to someone else. I haven't heard a peep back from him. Paid 300 for drunken and 200 for dirac

Would it be possible to shadow ban scammer accounts instead? Like, if we have an identified scammer, he can continue posting from the same account as often as he likes, but surprise! his posts are invisible to everyone but him. I think that'd cut down on the alt account spamming because it'll take them a while to discover that they've been neutered as opposed to discovering they've been banned by being unable to log in and then just immediately creating a new account.The W W -reed2 account was banned, that’s why no login.

Wow, this guy is a real scumbag. Hope the law or karma catches up with him soon.
Well that explains it...... Atleast I don't have to wait for a refund. Yep the Shelley Hardester email that is in the other posts is what he gave me for PayPal.The W W -reed2 account was banned, that’s why no login.
