    Ed, I said I 'gave him a red point' it wasn't a loaner! It was a replacement for the POS that he'd purchased! I hope he continues to enjoys it as much as I did!

    Sorry, I must have misunderstood, it was the bit about loving to have it back that caused the confusion.

    Looks like the owner of the website is more in the business of domain names than the actual product.

    Thanks for sharing these articles, Badgister. I hope they might deter someone thinking about purchasing from this guy's businesses.

    They have more than 60,000 likes and an almost 5 star rating based on more than 1000 reviews. It has to be legit right?

    I did. I returned the items they sent me because they were not what I paid for. I payed for a 6/8" Grenadile, and overpaid at that, but they sent me a 5/8" and said they don't have the 6/8". I ended up with my money back after 2 months.
    I have a question for you. Have you ever heard of an H.Boker & Co. Red Injun A-101 Made in the U.S.A.? There is no tree stamped on the tang. I bought it for about $25.00 including shipping and resold it for about $100 but it is being returned because the buyer said they never heard of a Boker without the tree stamp and I never heard of a Boker made in the USA. What's that about. I wish I could find a resource to help me solve this riddle wrapped in an enigma.

    One of the 'faults' of internet sites that sell items is that there really isn't any kind of protection for the buyer! You can falsify as many 'likes' as you please but if someone doesn't 'like' your product and complains, there's no 'law' that says that you have to post it!!!

    I believe that the phrase goes something like this:

    "Buyer Beware!

    I can't recall the details, and I'm sure some of the guys who have been paying attention to these things for longer than I might be able to fill them in, but my understanding is that the owner of these sites has a long history of setting up a number of companies/websites, selling garbage (along with some quality gear at high markup), then setting up another site to do it all again.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
