And I paid a lot less than that price...So :lol: this person is hoping to cash it all in and go to the Bahamas for a vacation with this price...

That guy is dreaming! Look at the shipping charge as well! I had one of these. Sold it for about $194.00. Guy could have at least wiped his finger prints off the bolsters :lol:

I notice a lot of sellers are charging outrageous shipping charges these days. Remember how we made posts of the Dusty Ducks High shipping charges. Well, I've seen a few of his knives at $3.25. :shock: I've seen a lot of guys charging $10-$12 for a pocket knife, insurance extra. ::td:: ::td:: Well they can go stand in the Fire and Brimstone before I'll pay that. ::huff::

Shipping

Post by Forensic Jim »

Hukk I've noticed the same thing about excessive shipping rates. Where do they come up with this crap. What amazes me is I will list a NIB Spyderco with 2-3 day priority mail for $4.60 mailing, and another dealer will sell the exact same knife getting consistently higher bids and then charging an some ridiculous fee for mailing third class.

All I can say is "I just don't get it." ::shrug:: I check shipping charges and if they are excesive, I just won't buy it. Only one exception, Bulldog Brand knives, if I see one that I only see come up every couple years or some that I know to be very rare.

Other than that, they can go...........................................
