You don’t suppose it was stolen do you? That might explain why the seller didn’t recognize what he had. Anyone that paid over 300 dollars for a knife doesn’t knowingly sell it for 60 bucks. But drug addicts who just want money won’t take the time to research and find out what these knives go for.Jporter1974 wrote:Saturday morning post office run produced these four, probably one of my best Saturday scores in a while. I'm a big fan of Schrade cut co with the jigged bone handles and I've been wanting an old robeson, the split back was a bonus. The catt has been lost in the mail since the 21st, I went as far as having my postmaster do a lost merchandise /mail inquiry. The case was posted as a " back-pocket " with a starting bid of 40 or best offer, I contacted the seller and asked what they wanted for it a I was told 60 and I couldn't type fast enough.I knew what it was immediately, but I didn't feel like it was my responsibility to tell someone how to price their merchandise..
I asked someone close to me their thoughts on the purchase and we discussed the whole Ebay monster.. You have to move quickly and you must be able to not to be lured by the counterfeits and frankensteins,worn-out rollovers or new listings by shady dealers, and while doing all of that you are looking for that great deal.. That is the object on Ebay..isn't it? What are your thoughts???~JP
I know, a drug addict in our family stole a knife from me. He didn’t want it he wanted the money to buy more drugs. I guarantee you that he didn’t look it up to see what it was worth before he sold it or traded if for his drug of choice.
In this day and age this would be a pretty common problem.
