-
I also had an investment, would be nice to hear what happend
-
Is the account gone? because i just got some 2cb ordered and put in transit yesterday.
-
It's still there in stealth mode, weather he was shutdown (which is unlikely) or if he just done a runner with everybody money is unknown, anyone got a Tormail for him?
-
Well i've learned my lesson not to finalize before. But its still a hassle if i have to go about getting my coin back.
Dont know about tormail but im sure he can still receive messages on SR.
-
Yeah, i've been in touch with SR admin and according to them he last logged in an hour ago
-
I sent him a bunch of messages 5 hours ago which he has not read.
This is posted on his stealthed page
"SR admin have asked us to remove our ridiculous listings, so we have and have now gone."
So did the admins really ask him to remove his listings? it's stupid to leave over something like that and it's really dodgy to not even try to contact the peoples whose money you'd loaned.
I was impressed with the MDMA packages sent to Asia and he looked like a legitimate vendpr, looking to grow his business on here.
FUCK FINALIZING EARLY!
I'm about 90% sure ATM he just did a runner and stole all our coins.
-
Fuck can my luck get any worse! Finalised early on a big loan...
'SR admin have asked us to remove our ridiculous listings, so we have and have now gone.' WTF does that even mean?
-
I bought a gram of MDMA 3 days ago, and he marked it as in transit about an hour after I purchased it. Didn't FE thankfully, but makes me wonder if it was actually shipped. :/
-
Seems quite odd Indeed. Because he was sending out orders. I received a few and they were very professionally packaged.
He also had lots of other listings that he seemed to be selling a lot of too.
I've messaged the admins and hopefully they will give me the truth, I'll post what they say here.
-
We actually invested in him also!
Seemed legit however it was always a gamble for us..
$500 we had "invested" 2 days ago, what amounts did everyone else send?
Maybe he received a massive amount from someone and then ran away with the coins?

Out of curiosity, what was this whole 'investment' scheme all about?
obviously it was presented in a non scam way as so many people seem to have done it
-
high risk , 7 day investment. 35% increase (would have been pretty pointless ... until the exchange rate of BTC just started to fall to 12USD today!). But that doesn't matter now as this dude has clearly fucked off. haha.
I am guessing the idea is to use the invested coin to purchase more product to increase revenue by potentially dropping their price per unit as a competitive advantage.
Seemed legit to me, lots of decent feedback. Maybe he had good intentions but when he was sitting on a pretty penny he decided to split... no doubt to rock up under a new vendor account shortly to swindle again! Ahhh SR.... you total fucking cunt.
-
I have also put in a $250 investment !!!
Maybe he is sorting his listings ? Hopefully give it a day or two and he will be back trading as normal. I hope so anyway, i dont really need to be loosing any money :(
lets not be negative or we'll all end up crying !
-
I actually think it is hilarious either way ($500 bucks here). I am a cynical asshole and would never do this kind shit but have been loitering with intent with BTC in my account idle.
200mg of modafinil , 5mg of dextroamphetamine and a can of diet coke later and it seemed like the best idea ever (irrespective of the fact that the BTC was steadily increasing in value daily... offer was also from a relatively stable vendor though)!
Moral of the story: Don't invest, buy illicit drugs (Because gonzo pharms are the true evil! making me trust a fellow human!? for shame...)
edit: i'm retarded.

haha... Yeh, maybe he got away with approx $2500. Not a bad little scam...

$500 here as well. I had just got that money back off Thaistick for his Loan scheme, which actually worked out all right even though he was a week late in repaying me.
Well fuck. That money was gonna pre-order my halo 4 xbox.
Although I'll still come out on-top thanks to the MDMA that he sent me and the price you can sell quality Mol for in AU.
Admin said:
They were told to remove extraneous listings as according to a new rule that was messaged recently to all vendors. They clearly took that as a sign that it was time to cut and run.
Keep in mind that anything promising a fast and high return rate comes out to ridiculous promises at the year mark.

Total lameness, had high hopes for your mandy purestore!
-
terrible if this happened and im sorry whoever lost money! see this is why finalizing early is SHIT. if you do finalize early and get ripped off, you can lose a LOT. if things go wrong and you cannot prove you were wronged? You get FUCKED.
hate to say it but anyone who cannot see through this type of scam, well, you've got to be VERY high. it screams "scam". i mean c'mon, investment? if whoever did this, actually did it, they probably made thousands.
another thing, dcn? pointless. absolutely pointless. and i wish someone could explain how it is not. and being better than nothing is also bogus. ive read too many stories of people being ripped off, and im sure they are not all accurate, but then again they cannot all be wrong, either. im pretty sure i just got ripped off by a "long time vendor with a perfect score". fucking cunts.
there's got to be a better way of doing this. vendors should have to pay more than they do. its far too easy to rob someone.
-
I invested $50 to begin with which he paid back to me in 5 days with the 35% interest as promised, i then 'invested' another $150 yesterday morning and i'm guessing i've lost that. Oh well, you win some you lose some and for purestore to make a lot of money off this simple scam, he deserves a round of applause.

Thanks mate that made me feel a whole lot better about losing $1000. ??? I've had no problems with Thaistick before. I wasn't high

don't worry man, spoke like an ignorant idiot anyway. Some of the biggest gains I have made in my life have been through very high risk investments. Something Paule will probably never understand.
As much of a misanthrope that I am, a calculated risk is usually worth taking. Lost a bit of money. who fucking cares . *counts his fingers and toes* no problems here either...
-
yup this fucker was building a scam
I expect him to re appear under a different vendor review and do the same again
there is a huge opportunity to do this, fuck me don't matter how honest u r once loads of folk have anonymously sent you money and have no way of tracing you then is a test of someone's trustworthiness
believe in karma

It would surprise me either if within 3 weeks he came back. I'm now on the look out for vendors selling similar products to what he sold.
-
f this, i hope he comes back. and gives me back my 100$
-
doubt he will.
what was he selling other than MDMA and 2CB?
lets profile the fucker... good call.
-
lol, I have Skyy's vendor page saved for just this reason 8).
-
Hmmmmm. placed a small MDMA order with this guy a few days before the shit hit the fan.
Oh well, if it doesn't show at least I know customs doesn't have it and the guy just tried to scam.

So did I, on the 15th .
He seemed legit. You know what fucks me off the most about this kind of shit. Obviously this website was set up to give people the opportunity to buy and sell drugs in a matter that was not direct and in a sense showed people who are against legalization of drugs that it could be possible to monitor drug taking instead of blanketing it and making everybody looking for a good time a criminal.
But even in this market it still manages to bread people who are just out there to rip people off . Its a fucking piss take .
Yes I realize this isn't amazon or eBay but damn you would think everyone would contribute to this site in nothing but a positive way as I'm sure 99 percent of people who use this website are here for the same reason.....To just buy good drugs without the hassle.
I live in the southern hemisphere and I still haven't received the 1 gram off mdma i brought off this guy.
-
ordered 1 gram, didn't arrive, but also didn't FE - put it through to resolution asking for 100% return, he offered me 50 and i told em to get fucked on behalf of everyone thats been ripped ;p

Good work! I'm also in the same boat but he ran with my investment so if I get anything less than a 100% return I'll be pissed! It's the only way to get him back...
-

what was the date you ordered your goods? Is he replying to messages? I have mailed him and have no reply

ordered early august, I didn't even bother to mail him. The story seems pretty clear and i received no product = resolution. Just gonna wait for SR people to give me the refund I think we all deserve. Thank god for no FE! I can only advise you try the same.
UPDATE: SR FOLKS gave me a full refund... hopefully they do the same for everyone else. You win some you lose some. NEVER FE!
-
I ordered some MDMA and 2-CB on the 16th of August. Nothing has arrived. I am sure it was never sent, given what has transpired with Purestore.
Both transactions have been marked for a %100 refund resolution.
