"Hi Paul, dagger arrived OK. The pictures that you took did not do it justice, it is a really nice dagger! it's nice to see that there is still some nice stuff out there."

"Received payment so quickly... I have never before done business on the internet except when my daughter bought something on Ebay. Thanks for the detailed instructions. You are very trustworthy."

"I recently had the privilege of dealing with Paul concerning a world war II item I wanted to sell. He was honest and efficient during every facet of the transaction. He always replied quickly to my emails and gave very complete instructions as to how to ship the item for his final approval. The price he quoted me for the item was very fair, and the money was transferred to my account the next day after he received the item. I could not have asked for a smoother transaction."

"Your honest pricing and description of the dagger, as well as the photo's showing the small blemishes of time were right on. I got what I wanted.........a nice dagger in good condition. Not a perfect museum piece............but not corroded junk either. I got my money's worth! I would gladly refer anyone interested in these type of collectibles to Lakesidetrader. You folks are fair and honest."

"I just thought I'd let you know that I received my Heller SA Dagger earlier today, and I am 100% satisfied with it! It's exactly what I wanted. The owner-ground blade, along with remains of the inscription really speaks of its history, just as I like best. Thanks a bunch! I'd also like to tell you that I truly appreciate the quality of the pictures you provide for the items on your website, as well as the highly detailed and honest descriptions. Both are truly second to none when it comes to online dealers. Your high resolution close-ups always let me know exactly what I'm getting, before I ever get it. I'm sure this isn't the first time you've received such a compliment, but I'm also sure you don't mind reading it again. Thanks again, and I'm sure I'll buy more from you in the future. I'll also continue to recommend you to any collectors I meet."

"... closing the estate so you can understand I was under pressure to obtain fair value for these. Sending them across the pond concerned me but after speaking with you I went with my instincts. I was surprised at how easy it all was... Thank you for your fast wire payment and for all your help and advice."

"Hey Paul - Thank you for your reply... I've always had reservations about dealing with people on the internet, but you have been an exception.... Thank you!"

"I received your appraisal and your offer... You are welcome for the trust I have shown in you but you have earned the trust as evidenced by the excellent comments about you on several websites and your dealers certification. I am sure you know that I, (and probably no one) didn't easily put a $1000 .00 plus worth of items in the mail without some concern. As I recently told my best friend, who had said this was totally unlike me, sometimes you have to go with your gut instinct and TRUST SOMEONE. You earned the trust and as I said before, I like the way you operate. As I said before, if you ever neeed a reference, I will be more than happy to vouch for you."

"I received the piece today in the post. Amazingly fast delivery and excellent service throughout. The tracking system was also a very useful tool as I knew when I would receive the item and that all was good. In terms of condition, just like last time I bought from you, my expectations were exceeded by the actual condition of the piece. I am gladly going to do business with you again."

"Just wanted to let you know the check landed today,(Mon.). A man who says and does exactly what he says he's going to do. I would like to know how I can add my voice to your site... While I am still cautious, (a native New Yorker) this transaction has changed me, and to some extent freed me, and for this I thank you. I hope you do well with it. I will recommend you in my travels to anyone who has something like this to trade or sell. This was, and I researched a lot, a class 1 experience."
