To those of you that don't read the Good, Bad, Ugly threads, there is a scammer out there that is looking at the For Sale and Trade threads.

His gig is to get you to mail him your knife or whatever before or at the same time he mails his trade. Thing is, he never mails his.

He goes by Collectorking99 and gives an address in Saudi Arabia. The address is one that has been used previously under another handle and has been banned a couple of times using different names.

No, I didn't get scammed. Knew better than to mail him mine first, or at the same time. But others in the GBU threads have said they have sent him their trades.

Posting this here because many of you don't go to the GBU threads, and he is offering to trade Buck knives that I don't think are in his possession. If he has the knife and box, then he would know the model number, which he says he doesn't know.

Seems like there was an 'Aesop's Fable' about a bad Bedouin trader like that... there (Saudi Arabia) current law for a thief still involves loss of a hand.

Scams are in the music biz too..Theres a kid in south america that must have every new cd that artists foolish enough to send one hoping for radio play mail down to him...
 
I have had registered members send me email, inquiring about knives I have for sale. Saying they will take them, and send payment...of course they dont.

They usually dont have any posts on the boards. Of course I would never ship without receiving payment first, its just annoying.

Strangely enough, they always send an email instead of a PM....fishing for email addresses maybe?

I have been checking user id's before I reply back to any, if they dont have any posts, I dont bother replying...something else to look out for I guess :(
 
It is a kind a sad thing!
These kind of persons they dont ever own a knife from BUCK,or just did not got the meaning of owning a buck.When I got my first buck in my hand, it changed my entire thinkink about knives.That knife is talk to you,about history,passion,skill,perfection,and emotion.After that ,I made a registration on this forum,and find a people who has a same respect toward Buck.Cheating on these people,Who welcomed me and I'm shure every other newmember as well!.....
