I've only FE'd twice, both orders from davidd. First one came through (10g for $3xx) second one did not (20g for $5xx). Since I now have over 5 orders I don't feel obligated to FE, but I won't ever do it again. It was a shitty feeling not knowing if I practically handed money over to a stranger on the internet.

It doesn't matter if it's a trusted vendor or not, I learned the hard way.

I FE'ed to: Trojan and Globaldealer, both highly trusted vendors.

I got nothing! Not even a customs letter, weird thing that all other orders
that I didn't FE showed up as expected. Just not the two that I FE'ed.

Staff should close all seller's accounts that want you to FE.
Get rid of the scam, get rid of FE. It's that simple.

Back in't day (seems so long ago now) i FE'd on my first few orders.from Sweetleaflondon as its in there T+C, Greengiant (because he asked me too) and Trojan.

the only one i worried about was Trojan because of the distance, i am in EU he, canadian.

everything came. i lurked & asked questions & was patient, nor did i buy from big vendors.

anyone remember pfandleiher?

things can get too big.

I've never FE'd and probably never will. It's nothing against the vendors, it's just sound policy that keeps disappointments to a minimum on both sides.

Five orders in so far, two of them were FE. One of those FE's is still in transit, though it's with a very reputable seller on the board so I'm not worried.  The other FE came through without any problems.

I have F.Ed Once as a noob to attain legit status. After my 4 transcation I was in the clear. I have f.ed for some other vendors. But these are people that I have a good Standing relationship with. People I have dealt with on numberous occassion, and have been hooked up handsomely for it. Now if you are new, YES please stay Domestic. Until you build up a rep, or status. Also how long have you waited for your international order, I know its out the country because you sayed customs. They take longer alot longer.
