Well. After getting burned by Tony this week (as it seems everyone else has), I placed an order with OPI the other day, says its shipped. But if you've seen his page today,
"I am going to be taking a little vacation from SR.
I will be back END of MAY.
I have too much on my plate, so the easiest solution for me is to take a break from SR. As the rest of my commitments will be completed at the end of May, and I will have all my times to focus onto SR and continuing to bring you guys the BEST H available."
I had to FE, and did so stupidly. I mean i got faith this will work out but... just with everything going on as of late. Tony and OPI both sold similar pebbles from what i was reading. It really would be a good way to get all the strung out junkies WDing to order from the other "reliable" vendor due to tony and Noriega's recent actions. The timing of all of this is so greasy.. and when i see a comment like this..... "Cancelled order because i couldn't finalize early. "
I dunno. I don't wanna point fingers, but i deff don't wanna be out another couple hundred :( If anyone has ordered in the last few days and gotten their order, ide like to hear :) I am all for someone completely shooting a hole in this possible theory :)

I do suspect that opi may be tony, but i dont think he would scam so quickly
it would make more sense for him to build up to be a bigger seller again
cause what opi account is capable of scamming is about 1/50th of what tony got away with
so maybe they arent the same person
but then again, tony could be covering his tracks, if he is opi then he knows we are on to him (or not) and so is pretending to be studying or whatever and taking a month off to avoid the heat

Look, I'm not trying to bust your balls, or make you feel even worse, so please don't take it that way... But it doesn't really matter if Tony is OPI or any one of a hundred other vendors here- if you don't finalize early, you will not be taken by another scammer. That's all there is to it. It couldn't be any simpler.
It seems like the less crafty scammers will try to get you to FE right away. However, the more crafty scammers will layer the scam, drag it out, and gain your trust. The more brilliant the scammer, the more layers and players they will craft into the scam.
But the bottom line is this: they cannot scam you if you don't finalize early. If you've finalized early four times for the same vendor, then you have completely let you guard down for the big scam you will never see coming.
The greatest scammers gain will try to gain our confidence before ever stealing a dime, setting up the stage to steal much, much more. Hence the term "con man", or "confidence man".
Don't finalize early. For anyone. If a vendor requires it of you, tell him no thanks, and to cancel your order, or wait to cancel it yourself, and find a vendor who won't require it.

Opi is not Tony, I just don't believe it. The communication styles are way different, just reading their posts. Also this isn't the first time Opi said SR was gonna have to accommodate his school work. That's one of the main reasons I bought from him rather than Tony.
OP, you will get your shit from Opi, I'd FE on it :D

well then the question is what are tonys other vendor accounts (i think it very unlikely that he would just leave altogether. he is a fucking cold hearted calculative scammer, that type always come back to earn more money. he cant survive on $100,000+ forever. even if we assume he has $500,000+ in the bank he will still be back, cuz that wont last forever and he probably has a taste for the high life. but he is a fucking empty sack of shit. abusing peoples trust, stealing hundreds of peoples hard earned money- obviously no empathy. noone who had ever felt any sort of guilt/remorse in their life could do something like this without feeling like shit, so he does not have a sense of humanity or any sort of brotherhood of man - people like that will always be back...
likely he either already has vendor accounts up and running, or is going to wait a few months until everyone forgets and then start selling again on multiple accounts

This all makes perfect sense. But if everyone refuses to FE, then no one gets scammed.
Two - three weeks ago, I was all about FE for my "trusted" vendors- I thought they deserved it. Never again.

i am in same position
i thought "why would they scam when they can make much more money running a business" - i didnt consider that they could just leave and then return on different accounts at a alater time
