So this has been by far the most frustrating DNM order attempt in my life. I ordered these items from cosmicbites on the 10th of January and yet I have nothing (that's now 19 days.) I was told that he shipped two days after I ordered but I never recieved anything. He doesn't have a reliable method of communication, his XMPP is a joke, so you have to message him on Hansa Market to get ahold of him with questions.

This I did. When about more than a week had passed and I was getting worried I left a message. It took around 4 days if I recall for him to respond, and I also had to contact a Hansa admin. He asked about the order, said he made a mistake, and that "CB always makes it right." Well, now another more than a week later, and maybe a dozen unanswered messages on Hansa, I still have zip, nada. My fault for ordering direct, I guess.

The prices seemed reasonable, the products looked good, and he seems to have a solid following. That is why I ordered. However, if what you are looking for is prompt, professional communication, or getting your package within a fortnight, or even getting it at all, perhaps look at other edible vendors.

It's not just the fact that he scammed me that makes me so upset, although that kind of breach of trust really does hurt, it's that he simply didn't have the time of day to respond or makes things right, and maybe that's because he's lazy, maybe it's because he doesn't care, or maybe it's because he never intended on delivering at all.

Thanks /u/CosmicBites for the valuable experience, and I would advise anyone who wants to have a priority mail box full of dank edibles, or anything at all, steer clear. Holy fucck am I mad, but who do I have to blame? Me.

Well I'm going out with a BANG not a whimper. If he thinks it's okay to scam a poor college student out of 200 dollars, how fucking shitty is that. I want to make it known that he is a scammer and cannot be trusted, however I can prove that. He has given no tracking number.

I had a similar experience but he did deliver even though it was 12 days late. I'd recommend just keep contacting him. What's the worst that could happen. Sorry to hear about it dude.

Yup, selective scammer list.. you didn't check it did you? It happens.


[1 Points] ChemoHaze:

I was thinking about ordering from him/her a few days back. Smoking is starting to hurt so edibles seems the way to go. Thanks for the review, I'll look elsewhere ;)

Ordered an eighth from him nearly a week ago, still hasn't been marked as shipped. Sent him a message on the order, no response. I sent him a regular message on Hansa earlier so we'll see what happens.
