Click. Whirrr....
Temper temper.
where is the relevance in what i do in my personal life?
oes me posting pictures of my knife BEFORE i sell it with MY flashlight have anything to do with you, or our transaction? NO. It does not.
assholes feel like adding to the shitstorm for their own enjoyment, and nothing comes of it. So what if i posted the same picture on a blog - what the fuck does that have to do with anything.
do you see a "tokenindiankid" on bladeforums - NO. Because i told morons like "Purple Haze" six pages ago that i wasnt planning on changing my handle at all. Chances are that he's too big of a dipshit to real all 12 pages of this monstrosity, and thats why he finds it relevant to post that
good job bro, you found a picture on the internet, now go run with a pair of scissors. (in ref to purple haze)
Relevant past behavior is a very good indicator of future behavior.
Lie to me once, shame on you. Me allowing someone to lie to me twice, shame on me.
...I can GUARANTEE you that even if you you bought a knife from him, he shipped it first, and you received it all in good order, it will only be a matter of time before he starts claiming that he never got your $, or it wasn't the right amount, it didn't get there fast enough, etc. ad infinitum.
A good reason to use credit cards and Paypal (and paying the fee, not using personal) whenever possible, as it makes for a relatively indisputable electronic transaction record. Scanning money orders and saving a picture is something I hadn't really seen the need for in the past, but now with my newly found education, courtesy of Anand the lier, I'm thinking a photocopy or a scanned electronic copy, all filled out to the seller, is the way to go.
I have plans, that don't involve hope, to get my $260 back, one way or another, even if I have to figure out Anand Moses' real name (which it might be, given his ucr.edu email) and figure out if that's his house, or his parent's house, in Riverside. Or if I have to go through UCR to gain his identity (that may not be so easy as the residence).
PachaasPaisaa = 50 cent in Hindi. Great. Yo. Word to your mother. Speaking of which... I might even have to your Mommy and Daddy, Anand, to tell them what a bad little boy Andy-the-kid has been in lying and not making a buyer whole... among other things.
I have a new buying rule... I won't buy and probably won't sell to anyone who types (texts) the word "Um" in an email or text.
And I wont' sell to anyone who is a starving college student, if I figure that out up front. I had one guy (a Kid I found out later) buy an Umnumzaan from me, and he texted me several times a day to see what the status was. Sheesh. He would type "Um, did you ship it yet?" (and I ship very quickly, but couldn't find the Chris Reeve box for a couple days). He panicked when I required a signature... texting me that he was only 18 yrs and wasn't sure if he'd be considered an adult to be able to sign for the package. Sheesh.
