Fake oe Real...

[Quatermass]

Hi jeeeensy,

I was refering to another dealer but it does beg the question, does anyone ever leave truthful feedback on ebay?
If i get good service, communication and or quick payment then I'm honest but if the service, item or buyers crap does anyone give them a neutral or, God forbid a negative?
Everyone (and a include myself) are to worried about keeping there 100% record to dare be anything other than positive, which makes a mockery of the whole system.

Did you leave the seller positve feedback?

I hope that its not a fake, but if it is then you'll not make the same mistake again. I've made bigger boobs than 50. Ho hum you live and learn. :S

Hi Jeeensy,
I have just got word in from a friend who is big on wartime knives/daggers.
Im afraid he tells me bad news with your trench knife.

He says the makers mark is incorrect plus you can still see milling marks on the part of the knife where the blade attaches.
In general the knife looks way to new for its age.
sorry buddy,it looks like a duffer im afraid.
Like Q says,i think we have all been bummed with ebay now and again.
you are better off getting back to basics and buying from the fairs nowadays.

Cheers Waff.

Thanks to all helping out on this one.

its only a 50.00 but it is the thought of being mugged. and yup i to got mugged from a certain dealer in France that tucked up a few fellow members.

anyway,
I have just mailed the dorris i am to buy it from explaining that i will buy if have to ,,,but bear in mind it was not as advertised.well go from there.

As the saying goes \"dont argue with idiots as they will beat you everytime with experience\".

I agree with Waffenamt, you can either get 1 negative feedback or spend 70 on something you dont want.
I know which one i'd rather have (its the 70 on the hip!)
Tell him thanks but no thanks, he's not likly to cross the Atlantic to hunt you down!:laugh:

Also,dont forget that you can re-reply to negatives and im sure the guy would not like you to put
\"Found out it was a fake,didnt want to buy it.\" or similar.......
