I saw this user's listings, and something doesn't smell right.
http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/index.php/silkroad/user/121731
has been a member for 18hours, and his FIRST feedback (within an hour is)
"5 of 5 Quick communication and the sample was great! Didnt take much to get me feeling good. item 17 hours"
then, all these poor guys are finalizing early. what do you guys think?
-
That's some mighty fast delivery.....an hour from ordering to trying. Shit on a holiday too. I think he has solved the Slow holiday shipping problem. ;-)
Mighty suspicious indeed. Good Catch BigBlack
-
Yeah I noticed that too but it does say its for a "Sample feedback", did he send out samples to the community?
I feel like just a few days ago he had a thread on here on rumor mill, or someone with a super similar name to his did and they were talking about domestic mdma...idk what happened to that thread though. I had posted in it but its not showing up now
I was about to drop an order with him, I messaged him some questions and he said I dont even have to release early from escrow... soooo :-\???
-
I think his requirements for early finalization are a bit high. I've been around 8 months and have only 7 transactions, so by his standards I would still have to finalize early. That seems a bit much too me. I personally don't want to blow my mailbox up with multiple orders a month, but that is pretty much what this guy expects from users.

I agree it is a pretty high number,
but I could pull up a few other vendors with pretty high requirements...or flat out not allowing people to stay in escrow regardless of what their previous orders are like. As soon as you break like $100+ with most vendors it seems like you lose qualification with escrow...
but 10 with an unestablished vendor is high.
-
I've taken a leap of faith with this person, and the communication so far has been excellent. According to SD my package shipped this morning. I'll update as events unfold.
-
I find it humorous that some new vendors demand early finalization from buyers with less than, say 10 transactions, when they only have a handful of transactions themselves... some of which are buyers finalizing early.
Lets just say I personally won't be buying from the OP anytime soon. :)
-
I recognize him by his email. I placed a small order with him after seeing him on a different forum before I got on SR. I paid but never received anything.
However, I was moving to a different state around that time. Maybe he shipped, but there was confusion about my forwarding address or something. I was too spooked to investigate it, and it was out of escrow anyway.
Please be careful.
-
I put a small order in with him, we shall see how it goes...
As for the poster above me, if hes using the same email and stuff across different forums maybe thats a good sign? A smart scammer would use different emails I think... or else people would be able to link them together. Just my two cents, hopefully that gram I put an order in arrives.
-
High quality MDMA, sent cheap and domestic within the US definitely falls into the "too good to be true" category for me. Hopefully people will keep us updated, and prove otherwise.
-
I have an order in the works as well. He was quick to accommodate my special requests and communication has been excellent. He originally asked me to send him the BTC directly because the amount is so small, but had no problem doing a custom listing for me once I asked. Won't be the end of the world if it doesn't show, but it'd make for a solid NYE if everything is as advertised.
-
It seems to me like a relatively new seller has come around at the perfect time to scam. New Years Eve IS the biggest party time of the year.
New sellers joins, demands instant money, gives you promises for the future. Specifically mentions USA seller ships fast get it by New Years etc etc. It seems to me like he is trying to get as much money as possible before he beats and takes off. The nature of the business that's really possible and I bet if this is the case he will be really successful.
I have nothing against him personally and I'm not saying anything more than be cautious. If it looks too good to be true it probably is. 40/g bulk moonrock. Ships fast from USA, tested product, "best on silkroad".
This is an actual quote from his listing
"Best of all: There’s no loss in quality! I have tried the MDMA offered by all major vendors here on silk road and can safely say this stuff is on par."
General all around lie, it seems so unlikely.
-
^^^ Yea, there is just too much marketing on his profile page for me to buy before anyone confirms that they got there delivery.
-
There was a fella who provided this service through the summer and fall, you know "I take the risk you get the good stuff". He was legit and trusted, and then he did a preorder and disappeared. Took a lot of coin from a lot of folks. When I read the profile for Sdsticky it reminded me a lot of the guy who did the rip and runs in the fall. You probably know I'm talking about Calistoner, oddly enough he was logged into the forums around Dec 20, I sent him a message and by the 23rd he had deactivated his SR Forums account (he went by Californeeya or something). My gut says this could be him and he'll come through until he gets in a pinch and then he'll fuck a bunch of folks, that just the way SR is set up.
-
After seeing this thread I messaged him today with a request for a DCN of the package he claims he sent out yesterday, and a link here so he could respond to everyone's questions. He read the message but did not reply.
Out of curiosity I googled his username and found an ad he posted on 4chan...
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:zqw4NWNa8jkJ:4chan.chan4chan.com/b/res/370309536+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us
I wish I'd seen this thread before I placed my order, but as is nothing I can do now but wait it out. He supposedly sent out a bunch of stuff early this week so we'll know pretty quickly if he's legit or out for a quick buck.
-
Phew was just about to close browser before I saw this thread. Looked at his listings earlier and seemed too good to be true. Like it has been mentioned before "High Q MDMA" "Domestic" "Cheap". Will wait on more reviews & more research before indulging.
Also the posting on 4chan should tip people off that he is trying to gain attention to cash out quick. Not making any accusations just want people to be safe!
-
I don't know if posting on 4Chan is a sufficient or necessary indicator of being a spammer. If you think about it, what places on the Internet can you advertise the illict sale of MDMA over international borders? My understanding is that you can do pretty much anything you want on 4chan so long as you're not posting CP.
-
That's hilarious. Some spastic dipshit on 4chan saying that max MDMA purity is 84% and if it's at least 84% it would be white. lol
No end to the tardedness of the /b tards....
-
His location to mine is a two day ship via priority mail, which is what I paid for, but no package today. He's gone from nearly instant responses to messages to nothing in two days. He's still getting tons of positive feedback, up to 19 5 out of 5's, but I'm not holding my breath for tomorrow's mail. Anyone actually received anything yet?
-
Same experience here valueadd. He responded quickly to numerous messages and hasn't responded since a purchase was made. Hope we're wrong,
but I wouldn't count on it. Please do not finalize early for new sellers everyone.
-
If you look at the original post....it was pointed out that he had only been a vendor for 18 hours and at 1 hour later he had feedback saying great quality stuff. That was a HUGE REDFLAG. I wouldn't hold my breath for this guy. Hope I'm wrong but probably not. Go with who you know....or in this case who the forums know. Always use legit vendors and never finalize early.
-
In his profile he says "My stock is pretty much dry, I have about 5 grams left and once thats gone thatll be it for a few days after new years." yet if you add any of his 3 listings to your cart there are 95+ available for sale in each category. Definitely a scammer
-
New on his profile today:
"I signed on today with an insane number of new messages, I tried my best to reply to as many as I could but if you didnt get a reply from me PLEASE message me back!! Im a new vendor and was not expecting this kind of flood. Sorry for any delays in communication!"
I'm off to check my box now, still trying to be optimistic.
Edit: Nothing. If he shipped on Monday like he said, I should see something by now.

That sucks man. I'm not expecting anything either.
Yeah I saw that on his profile, looks like he's just trying to push it for a few more days. If I were scamming I'd at least answer the messages, tell people that something came up and packages went out later than expected but they are on the way, or ship to the first few people so he'd have credibility, but as is I think it's pretty clear what's going on. Not the first time I've been scammed in the drug game, doubt it'll be the last.
Guess I'll just have to troll the festival on NYE and look for some goodies there.
-
Funny how he posts that today. For the past 2 days, I asked if my order was sent and if he could provide tracking. No response even though he was online. During the ordering process, he responded immediately to my messages for over 2 hrs. Not calling him a scammer, but it doesn't look good. And all the people finalizing early and giving him kudos in the feedback (without receiving the item) does not help matters.
-
Looking more like a scam. 2 days ago he stated he would upgrade shipping and assured me that it would be here Friday. Guess what? No package.
-
I'd expect this person would have been here to defend his/herself by now if this were a legit seller. I knew it sounded too good to be true from the start, but since I live in an area where such things are not normally available (nowhere, USA), and I'm also (sometimes too much) a trusting person, I decided to give it a go, One of these days you would think I would learn...
-
No packages ever showed up.
Scam.
-
Scammed as well it seems. Goddamnit.
-
Damn what a bummer to see. Hope you guys didn't go out of Escrow. Too good to be true :/
-
Dam that really sucks that hes a scammer. The US needs a good domestic MDMA vendor. I agree with Jack, it should of been a red flag when he got his first feedback so soon.
-
You can have all the safeguards you want on a site like SR but nothing will protect buyers against their own stupidity...cmon now people...
-
I sent him a message asking if he could sell me 1/2 gram instead of the listed 1gram because i did not need that much. He said you i'll give it to you for 30 bucks....Psssssh, thats almost half of the price of any other mdma vender on SR. I'm glad i held back to wait for feedback on this guy. Sorry for all the people that lost money.
-
Expensive lesson learned: Don't buy stuff on Silk Road while on K.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck!
-
Sigh, yup definitely a scammer. Lesson learned, don't wait till the last minute to gather your drugs. But geez, the US really needs a solid mdma vendor, cause I'm also tired of my packages getting seized by customs.
