It's sad that I must make a post here, but I'm trying to be taken advantage of by a forum member - simonxm.
On 5/27/2015 I put a knife up for sale - see photo and links below.

simonxm - says he would take it - and sends me paypal.
He had me send the knife to a USA address ( He lives in China I think)
And when the knife was sent back, it came from a different USA address.
After receiving the knife, he says it is scratched. And what can be done about it. ( The scratches he was talking about was not this deep gouge.)
First I told him I would give him three hundred dollars back.
Second I said I would give him another Mammoth Ivory knife - value $800.00 for free, he could keep both knives.
He did not want this, so he sends the knife back to me.
When I get the knife back, it has a deep cut going across the shield and scales. Kind of hard to see on the scales but it is there.
This has ruined the knife were it can NOT be repaired, it is too deep.
There are other problems with the knife also that are there. Like a flat spot towards the tip of blade were someone looks like they rubbed it on something hard.
And the pivot pin is showing some.
When he received the knife, there was nothing said about damage to the package shipped. ( which could of been taken care of by shipping insurance)
And when he shipped the knife back there was no damage to the package. And I don't think he insured it.
He still wants me to give his money back.
All I need from him is an address were to send the knife back to him at.
I've sold knives on this forum going on ten years now.
And have had a few problems come up that I had to take care of, but nothing like this.
