Re: is this Case legit?
Yes legit. I don't recall the what the name of those handles were but I have seen them before. Obviously something to do with a cow.

Re: is this Case legit?
I think I would be more worried about the brand new seller with zero feedback.

63090 pattern.
The seller says Holstein in the description (which is a breed of bovine).

I could understand your concern with zero feedback, but every seller had zero feedback at one time and he doesn't seem out of line with his prices and descriptions. He could ad more pictures though. You gotta start somewhere..

Re: is this Case legit?
True enough - just not with my money. A reasonable person buys some items to get good feedback before starting to sell. Coming right out of the gate with a pile of knives makes me think they created this new account just to sell these items. If it all goes sideways, they disappear into the ether and create a new account.kenb wrote:I could understand your concern with zero feedback, but every seller had zero feedback at one time and he doesn't seem out of line with his prices and descriptions.

Re: is this Case legit?
Well, that's a good point - I never said I was smart, however I *have* said I was cheap...
I suppose it is at least partly a matter of expectations. I understand the risk of buying off AliExpress & DHGate. I use the same criteria there - I look at seller feedback and the length of time the seller has been operating on those sites. I try to eliminate the seller scam risk - although that still leaves the huge risk of having the item get lost in shipping due to Customs or the broken-down donkey carts they seem to use for shipping companies. The problems I have had with the overseas sellers have always come after the package goes missing while in transit. As far as I can tell, the seller *did* ship it.
