I am sure everyone who sells here is a fine reputable person to deal with.

Just curious, any comments on who is your favorite seller on Aapk for good quality stuff and vey fair reasonable prices?

I've only dealt with three.
All three were willing to deal with me on the price, prompt to answer my questions, mailed out the item quickly, and had it well packed to protect it.
No complaints here.
Take care and God bless,

I've dealt with at least seven or eight members here, both through AAPK stores and forum sales/trading. Not one complaint so far.

I have zero complaints about any of the vendors I've purchased from, I really can't recall a negative buying experience. I'm gonna give my props to Sanders Knives though. Been around for ever, always willing to accept a reasonable offer, and great presentation-- description and photo-wise-- of his products. Bravo, Sanders Knives!

I've purchased from Sanders, Ozzie Marie & Sweetpieces - got what I paid for each time and prompt shipping - so I'm satisfied
Couple of differences between Ebay and AAPK - First I don't have to wait for auction and get outbid or pay to much at last second - On ebay the buy it now prices generally set to high ( I understand cause I sell on ebay as well) Here the prices seem to be a little more appropriate -- I buy from both but If I'm looking for something I want to keep I start with AAPK sellers - If looking for bargins still give ebay some business - that's my two cents -- ::shrug::

PS I probably have bought from others here as well just can't remember - anyway I have never had any surprises
