may i inquire as to how long this vendor has been a vendor? and im sure youre probably reasonably new, yes? should have did more research first. majority of people will agree that finalizing early is never good. sorry you were robbed. it happens to a lot. and, also, i am willing to be a majority of the ones who get ripped off are new. we have no protection here at all.

they had pages of 5 /5 reviews of people who FE and have been vending since 2011 SO NOT NEW, my question is why are they still trading? many others have been duped too, they should be banned now.

feedback should not effect how you purchase, unless its negative. sounds unfair i know. but how many vendors are going to leave themselves bad feedback/scores?
always read up on vendors. and if they require finalizing early, move on to someone else. there are many vendors here, and not all require it. to me making a demand, as opposed to asking, is just rude and shows the individual has no idea about how to handle customers, so they do not deserve you.
those "many others" i wont pay much attention to. its hearsay really. and please do not think for a moment that the amount of time someone has been a vendor has any effect on how honest they are. they're human and thus susceptible to being a douchebag just like the rest of us.
the bottom line with silk road is this - this shits illegal (most of it). so you take your chances regardless. it could be a piece of shit ripping you off, or it could be a seized package. . basically, the odds are stacked heavily against us. just be careful about what you say. you did after all hand over your location. unless youre one of these people who has packages sent to a neighbor, or relatives. which is absolutely shitty to do. not to say you are, just saying.

As far as im aware he was legit.. He may of been overwhelmed with orders and you may not be a situation to him. As long as you did not lose a lot of money that's fine, but i still see where you are coming from. The thing is that customers scam sellers and there's no way of proving anything really. Maybe he thinks your someone who is lying trying to get free drugs. From my perspective.. That might be what he is thinking. Can i ask what country you are in?

Skyy was a very reputable MDMA vendor on SR, had been around for decent amount of time and had lots of positive feedback, so falling for an FE is understandable, just look back to the whole Tony76 (was it 76?) debacle a couple of months back.
I have FE'd a couple of times and luckily i have never been burned, and now all the vendors i FE'd for don't require FE. I don't think i would FE anymore if asked.

i fail to see how any customer is more important than the next. that may sound naive, but to me its good business practice. and if anyone becomes overwhelmed at any time, they can either suspend orders coming in or edit their listings stating there may be a delay. we all know that wouldnt happen, to someone on the vendor end thats like saying "i dont like money". and the amount of money is irrelevant in any case. principles are important.

Silly me i finalized early ....
May I ask why you chose to finalize early? Did you not know the risk? I occasionally finalize early. Once I lost 150 USD. It pissed me off but I knew the risk when I made the decision.
-
risk is a two way street, they take the money so I expose them on the forum, now people can make informed decisions, check there ratings now, it appears many have been ripped off since about May when I ordered, BUT THEY ARE STILL TRADING???? :'(

I certainly hope this was an isolated incident because I've used SKYY twice in the past with perfect results.
Honestly I have intended on using SKYY again when the time comes because of how happy I've been with everything.
I'll keep my fingers crossed and I'll hope for the best

Guys, please read the forum. Skyy is gone and has been having problems for awhile. I used him several times successfully and once didn't receive anything but did get a refund. Feedback on listings is only one part of the equation. Reading the forums you can see an even more up to date version of what's going on.
