a rat was smelled from day 1 here, too much self promotion on the forum is a huge flag, too many vendors on the forum "big up" with thier sheep blindly folliwing to the slaughter  >:(

whats the golden rule, never FE, ever if your 100% many month top 10% vendor insists this, go elsewhere plenty sellers who operate within SR guideline and do NOT explot the FE route.

Never finalse early however a great relationship you have with the guy and had previous sucessful transactions, common sence, shop elsewhere!!

Even FE for international buyers is bullshit, dont FE and take to the resolution centre and abied by seller terms, you may still only be offered 0% but better than earlt FE, it sont show repwect to seller it show you are nieve, this isnt directed at OP, its for all.

And frankly any seller, mod or whatever, should also set the expamle and for escrow, allowing some to operate this way only allows other to explit it, seen again, again and a fucking again.

Sorry to hear that if it's true. Unfortunately lot of people, when facing some difficulties that forcing them to stop trade choose to scam some people before leaving for good. Maybe that's happened in that case.
Thats a shame..being in this business=24/7!If you ain't got the goods,then don't sell here..pure and simple!SR is not like RL!There are people from all over the world with different time zones placing orders 24/7!Thats a Fact!Vendors should be able to handle that kind of volume. I know its not an easy task.Personally,i 've ordered from SKYY couple of times and everything was smooth..just kind of surprised that a top vendor with almost impeccable stats would go missing.Sigh...now..isn't that common around around here... :(

There have been several vendors that did the 6 month pump and dump, and some of them are back under new names. I'm waiting on DPR in rc on a ~$1k order that was never shipped and there are several others I bet.

It sucks but I'm glad I didn't FE like some did, but SKYY hasn't even logged into the site in over a week so my bet is he walked away with whatever BTC he could keep and will be back under a new name. Read his vendor page and copy it so you can compare it to the next dutch vendor that comes out of nowhere with cheap mdma and be wary. Stay in escrow and if they won't let you, take your business elsewhere like AAkoven and Ivory. Both have been here 2x as long as SKYY and always take care of their customers.

What if they got busted and they come back as a compromised account?
I bet people will start ordering again.

If they come back under the same name, I am sure there are some customers that will come back and order from them again. There are quite a few customers I'm sure they've done right by and didn't get caught up in whatever the issue was that caused them to fall short in their obligations as a vendor.

I highly doubt there was any kind of bust, there is simply a genuine shortage of MDMA in the NL and thats probably what the bottom line is.

All any of us can do is be active in the forums, stay in escrow unless you choose not to and be vigilant.

It gets me how vendors give all kinds of stipulations  to FE on customers and this isn't  even the SR system , Maybe they should shop their goods some where else instead of SR if they don't want to stay in escrow.

Its probably cos of the high bitcoins values at this moment,as of now it stands at 1btc=$US=12.40..SO naturally vendors wanna take advantage b4 the value goes down..which is totally understandable from a vendors point of view!That is of course,if vendor is a reputable ONE!And even that is?
But once in a while,we will get "undesirables"!So do your homework well,fellow roadsters..spend some time going thru the forums and SR..AND please keep this thread alive,by inputting your concerns or questions!
Stay Safe

  I love MDMA and have had some great luck with MrFireUK, is AAkoven and Ivorys better?  I want the best, mostly like the downer type not the speedy type. How can you tell the difference?

I hadn't seen any SKYY listings for ages.

My small order with SKYY never showed. I received a small refund but was told not to speak of it. Maybe this was the scam?

Did anyone else have this experience?

Don't FE.  Period.  Then you have nothing to worry about.
