I should've done my homework on the guy first, but I didn't.
Paid for knive on Nov 17, 2014. Excuses for 10 months which led to him blocking me on instagram.
Read through the thread. There seems to be a pattern to the way he screws people over. Hope you find some way to get your money back at least. I think he's closer to con man than bad business man.
If you're on Facebook I would suggest posting on this feedback page, if you haven't already. (link)
There are people who actually defend this guy but I think eventually he'll screw over the wrong guy or something.
I'm not on facebook. I wasn't on instragram either prior to dealing with him. I was surprised to see any sort of active thread on him, so I figured I could at least add to it.
