Title: Where is Pot2Peer?
Post by: MixM8 on September 19, 2012, 12:00 am
To my surprise, Pot2Peer (top 2% seller) is not a vendor account anymore. Does anyone know if he got disciplined or otherwise? I don't want to spread any rumors at the time being but I'm curious as he's great for a cheap oz.

When you click on someones name and it just gives you the option to email them, then they are no longer a vendor.

...they are back to "user/buyer" status.

Just stating a fact.

So the next logical question is do I have to wait till my order goes into resolution or can I get my money back faster?

That I can not answer. I have never been on one side or the other of a deal when something like that has happened. :\

he has his own onion site you can order from, a little cheaper than his SR prices too

This is a Bummer! he had alot of complaints in the forums for lack of communication but his packages always arrived promptly and stealthly I don't think he would disciplined for that right? I mean there is nothing to talk about if the product arrives as described and on time LOL! I wanted to order from him he had some awesome strains at fair prices but I  wouldn't off his site no escrow and SR admins aren't there to back you up.....COME BACK POT2PEER!!!!

One thought that crossed my mind was that P2P got banned for having a full inbox? He wasn't easy to get a-hold of but he always delivered with good stuff.

Lol he wouldn't be banned for that. He was most likely (in fact, certainly) banned for the prior reason given.

I don't quite understand, he was banned for doing some business on his own site? If a vendor chooses to vend here does that mean they're not allowed to run their own side business? I know advertising here is looked down upon/against the rules but I don't recall P2P really advertising that much here.

It may be he was asking other vendors to join his site as well.  ::)

Vendor rules state that you are not allowed to "direct" buyers to pay via any other method other then SR escrow.

I do not know all the details, but would venture to guess he was "pushing" folk from SR over to his personal site in an attempt to "save them SR fees" and for him to operate out of escrow.


....that is all hypothetical on my end.

Interesting, thanks for clearing that up. I've had 5 or 6 orders from him throughout the length of our business relationship and he never mentioned to me about the other site.

My next question now is whether P2P's account is still active as just a buyer account and only had its vendor status removed or does P2P no longer have access to that account at all?

I ordered 1/4oz weed from him last week and havent received yet - am I shit out of luck on the money? Or do I wait and not finalize and then hit resolve? It would really suck to be out the money cause he got, possibly, banned - if that is indeed the case?

One week is no reason to panic, even less so if you happen to be on the opposite coast. I've had lots of successful orders with P2P  both on Silk Road and through his own site. I also have an extremely recent order placed through his own site, which is currently down, but based on his history of delivering I'm hoping it's nothing big and he'll come through. I'm not really one to put someones business up, I've said enough already, if he has something to say he knows how to put it out so I'm not going to bother updating on my order or any other specifics. I just wanted to chime in and remind people of how early it is before they label him in a negative manner. I've been through this before with people who ultimately deliver(and are still around) and those who don't(hybridmike is a name that comes to mind). Just allow time to reveal more facts, if you're in escrow you have no worries.  If not, then you should have accepted you might lose your money before you ordered.

We have indeed been banned for posting a link to our own site in our profile (that was the reason given). 

We have very much enjoyed our time on SR, and have done our very best to deliver the best product at the most competitive prices possible.

We are very grateful to both the admins of SR and its users for the opportunity.

All placed orders (both on SR and our own site) will be fulfilled.

Peace.

That's a bummer man but rules are rules and we all have to follow them here. They are in place for a reason. Are you working to get you seller account back? Will they let you?

I got worried when I saw your listings were down this morning. Still waiting on an order form a week ago. Standing by patiently.

Appreciate what you do! Keep it up!

Good riddance! You were just another disappointment I ordered from. Advertising indoor high quality on the listing and sending out, outdoor garbage.

Why? Because I payed for indoor quality bud not outdoor, that's why. It's called false advertising. No, I didn't smoke it. I gave the shit to my neighbor it was so bad. I'm not a desperate weed junkie I just enjoy sampling other peoples mj. When I order something I expect to get what was advertised.

There are a bunch of people complaining about being scammed from pot2peer. Iv ordered from him before and he was legit and so was his weed but I just ordered 2 ounces of afghani and got scammed. I just have a weird story because I got the weed but it was 1.5 ounces short :o . I made a thread about it because when I went to open a case in resolution and I submitted my resolution it brought me to the feedback page. It is as if it finalized when I clicked Submit resolution here is a copy of what I wrote in the optional message:

"I dont understand. I ordered from pot2peer before now all of a sudden he scams me? He has a very good rating so this must be a mistake or something on his part. I ordered 2 ounces of afghani. I only received a little more than half an ounce. I really didn't want to open a case because I am afraid my buyer statistics will be messed up now. I just want a full refund because this is ridiculous. It would be one thing if it didnt come. Than it could have been lost in the mail or something, but this came and was an ounce an a half short. I would also say, maybe he is splitting up the shipment into 4 pieces or something, but when I ordered from him before he didn't split up shipment and Iv never heard of him splitting up shipment on the forums. The last thing I could think of was that someone might have opened it and stolen from it, but that is impossible because it came vacuum sealed shut. My experience on SR has been very good. I just want my money back or even if the item could be sent to me that would be great. I really hope this doesnt ruin my statistics. "

When I made the thread I got a few PM's from a few other people who got supposedly scammed. When I use the word scam I dont mean it to be an attack on him it is just that there must have been some error on his part. it happened to people who made order just before his store shut down.

Is this normal with the resolution center? Or did SR just mess me up. I message the SR staff asking but have no response. Someone help me out.

Finally received my order. Weight was spot on (7g). Thank you Pot2peer for keeping up your end of the bargain. Hopefully it works out for you on SR. Good Luck - MYB

P2P, if you're still reading these posts, you can pay the $150 again to reinstate your status as a vendor. I discussed it with SR Admin after my last vendor account was revoked for doing MoneyPak transactions and he reassured me that if I paid the $150 to reinstate my vendor status, he wouldn't revoke it again for the same offense. $150 is a small price to pay for the presumably tens of thousands that you're making on SR alone.

I ordered from P2P on the 18th and it marked shipped on the 19th. I have had successful transactions with him in the past and would usually receive the product 3-4 days. Its been a week now and it still hasnt came in!! im truly freaking out. the package is getting shipped to the lower part of east coast if that helps. please, anyone, let me know!
Title: Re: Where is Pot2Peer?
Post by: MrMcFeelyMD on September 27, 2012, 01:17 am
I've had about 15 ounce-sized orders with P2P in the last 3-4 months. His shipping times definitely got much slower towards the end of his run. I actually stopped ordering from him about a month ago because of it. My last order with him was 9 days in transit. I wouldn't worry about it until at least 10 days after it was marked in transit.

Post by: bgreen3 on September 27, 2012, 02:24 am
alright yeah that makes me feel a little better worst cast scenario it doesnt come you think would get 100% money back? since I doubt he would respond to the SRs actions.
Title: Re: Where is Pot2Peer?
Post by: MrMcFeelyMD on September 28, 2012, 07:43 pm
Yeah, definitely. If he doesn't respond during the resolution process, you'll get 100%. If he *does* respond to your proposed resolution, you'll likely get the package shortly after.
