Fun with fakers

Here is the childish part of me. There is a fake Spyderco on ebay with a buy it now or best offer. Lets all do best offer of $1. or even one cent. Not only to be childish but may discourage the seller from continuing this particular fraud http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... SS:US:1123

Why are you buying Spyderco's off Ebay anyway? A reputable dealer solves this problem. And I'm pretty sure you'd have much better luck on the Exchange on another forum if you're looking for used ones.

Not all disco'd models pop up on the exchange forums if you're looking for something particular. I def peruse ebay from time to time to see what's out there. I'm sure the OP was doing the same. I'm the first to say support our small business dealers when looking for current models.
