EBay is a Wild and Crazy venue for any type of knife
I have been selling my personal property there for over 6 years and have sold over 25,000 knives on different accounts By Myself
Many might not think that’s a lot , but do it all yourself and then tell me that
You have Top End to Low End knife collectors and I have sold to All of them
You have to be aware of who is Bidding, Buying at all times
I have dealt with All Types of People
I came here to get away from the craziness for awhile
And to my surprise this site has been very , very good to me
I would recommend this site to Any Collector/Seller
Unfortunately I have to return to the Crazy for awhile to Sell a Few Dozen, Very Sweet, Fixed Blades that I’m willing to let go and some other odds and ends that someone will purchase
Don’t let EBay bother you
It is what it is
It’s the small percentage of people you have to watch out for
and I do
Well said. As one who buys more than selling,really do appreciate the many sellers here who go out of there way for there customers. EBay has its place,but as my collecting has gotten more selective over the years,it’s places like this Forum, and Sellers and collectors here ,that I prefer to deal with . I personally rather not buy or sell on EBay, and shows are getting fewer and fewer up here , so am limited.
Hang in there all you Sellers ,can’t buy good stuff without you .

List up your FBs here if you want. Lots of them sold here. Just bought 1 earlier this week and have bought others before that. I seldom buy a folding knife, here or on fleabay. I carry them and used them but only buy replacements as needed.

I might be able to list a few here
Depends what I decide to pull out !! Pricing is always a issue with some of them !! And I do have many other cheaper USA knives to sell along with all kinds of knives/knife related items ( Sheaths, Etc ) to get rid of !! And EBay is where you do that !! And EBay buys Junk Knives to

I agree with Gene. I recommend that you call them and explain the situation (after you have calmed down a bit). I have called ebay a few times when something wacky happened with one of my auctions and each time I got a reasonable human being who apologized and actually fixed the problem. For example, I recently got negative feedback from a buyer because I refunded the excess shipping they paid. The Ebay person immediately zapped the negative feedback and actually laughed when I told them about it. However, your situation even more bizarre!
Well you have had better luck than me. I bid on an item - the only bidder - and he canceled the sale. Reason: I had the wrong address listed. Baloney! I’ve had the same address for years! And how would he know something is a wrong address unless he sent it out and it returned undeliverable? He just didn’t want to sell it for the starting bid. I did actually talk to a person who was no help at all! How can someone just decide they don’t want to sell something because the bidding didn’t go as high as they wanted?
Good luck with EBay.
