I posted a want to buy a Benchmade 4x and he PMd me saying he had one mint w/ box sheath and papers for $300 and told me to e-mail him. It made me suspicious that he did not have any years flipping and had no posts. I e-mailed him and his English was extremely sloppy. When I asked him for his address he said that PayPal "safes" time and that he didn't want a "cheque" which I'm pretty sure is how foreign people spell it. So I asked him where he was and he said Ohio. It was weird that he had a very American name and was in Ohio but spelled like that. I'm not 100% sure that he was scamming or in a foreign country but just to be safe. Be careful with him.

Sam (the scammer) wrote:325$ negotiateable yes it comes with box,sheath and papers.

You do all that, and we'll talk money, unless you're willing to send the product first.
