I bought from hashuk, (roughly a £60 order). Simply, nothing ever arrived. I finalized early because it was my first ever purchase on SR, and was in contact with him. All my messages were replied to within the day of sending them, but as soon as I said that I never received the package, my messages are no longer being replied to. I respect that I can easily appear to be a scammer (first time purchase and then saying nothing ever arrived), but isn't that something hashuk could take advantage of if he wanted a free £60 from me? Am I a victim of "selective" scamming? I highly doubt Royal Mail lost the package. I've bought about 300 items from eBay, and only about 2 of those items have actually been LOST by royal mail. Seems very odd to me that my first buy on SR would vanish. :(
Thanks

Thanks for informing us, however it's too early to tell whether it is scam or not, He might not be working during weekend, and package has yet to be ship? Please wait for anyone who is still in contact with him and who'd let you know about him.
I myself have lost more than you here, and even more outside SR. As such, I have some experience to judge whether it is scam. There are certain qualities to look out for in serious seller, however, it is not totally reliable and best is look at what everyone else is saying. Have you search for his name in this forum and look for other reviews first?

Well, he's been the #1 seller on SR for a while now, sometimes going to 2nd and 3rd but yeah. I bought from him thinking that I'd be safe because he's got such good feedback. hashuk- if you are reading this, I am not blaming this on you- for all I know royal mail lost it, so I can't really blame anyone :P
-
thanks for the help :) hopefully will turn up next week, or else i might find myself down the nearest post office with a shotgun -.- ;D
-
My first ever SR order was from hashuk and it turned up very quickly. If selective scamming was happening to new customers, I would have been a prime candidate.
Just adding my little bit as from my experience (have ordered from hashuk since), this guy has been great.
-
i had the same experience a few weeks ago and still haven't received the item.
i have purchased from hashuk before and it arrived within a week, so as soon as the latest order said in transit i finalized/released to help the seller out, but the latest order failed to arrive so i pm'd the seller after a week or so to let him know and had no response at all, i pm'd again and still no response
i changed ratings and feedback to show the lack of service and product and will just not bother to order from again
i doubt hashuk is a scammer i just think his customer service can be a bit crap - maybe a bit disorganised or too busy with volume of orders or something

person12345, you really should update your post, let people know whether you received your package or not.
I have ordered from hashuk a couple of times, no problems. The product was well packaged and arrived within 8 days each time (UK to North America). I finalized early on the last order without any reservations.
How long did you wait before deciding it was late? I am amazed at the number of people who start posting about not receiving their package when it has been barely a week since the order finalized.
All I can say is, I hope you were patient. I have had priority mail orders that should take 6 days arrive 3 weeks later. Shit happens, stuff gets delayed.
-
Same here, a couple purshase with mrUK, always perfect. Last order is being late (10days), but as he told me post is slow this week. As he said he gets a lot of abuse/lots of PMs (as you might guess with his amount of transactions!).
Sure it's annoying to wait, but noone is responsible for post...
Make sure you use PGP as he recently updated his profile asking for encrypted comm if you want precise info!
And again, post is sometimes funky... i'v had a friend send me a priority express signed paper a few weeks ago. Supposed to take 1, max 2 days... came mfkin 1 week later !! Keep on waiting, I share your pain, but I know it'll come!

hi there, I'm in the same boat as you - I ordered some hash on the 22nd of September, but unfortunately it never arrived (I'm in the UK)- this is the first time something hasn't arrived in the post for me from SR - I did feel anxious and dissapointed that my item never arrived - I will message hashuk at some point as I did inform him late last week that i was still waiting for the item,
thanks.
-
Mail was indeed slow, I got my package! According to stamp, it stayed in the mail system for a LONG time. So again, don't worry everyone, mrUK rocks!
-
Hi,
just a follow up to my order that never arrived, HashUK was very understanding, friendly, accommodating and quick to respond to my messages, especially considering I'm a first time buyer from him, he quickly remedied the situation yesterday and today i finally received the item i was so longing for, I will definitely recommend HashUk for any future that's for sure!! Much better than having to have forced conversations and being ripped off by my local scuzzball dealer!!!!

Hey ohhbetty,
please contact me again, i cant believe ive ignored you twice? once i can believe :) , and we can resolve this fairly.
I am not a scammer, and ill admit my follow up service can be improved, or crap is a fair word, i have a shot brain and my memory is so bad, so i can process orders, thats methodical, but remembering to follow up order issues i forget if i dont sort them then and there.
My concern is the number of packages going missing lately, hoping its just coincidence and bad luck, and not something more worrying, my mail is discreet, but most packaged quite similar.
If this continues, i may have to shut temporarily, untill my paranoia levels normalise, and come up with a new shipping strategy :o
All customers that have an issue, please contact me if i have not resolved a problem.
Person12345, can you updated this thread did your item arrive safely??
Added 15:09;
Please also remember if your a previous customer and your not international i will give 100% refund or resend. (International 50-75% refund).
thx for the response hashuk. im pretty sure it was twice but could be wrong - i delete messages regularly (my own paranoia;) so cant check now
as posted before i can understand you get busy and if a bit disorganized it is easy for something to get forgotten or missed - not the best customer service but definitely not scammy - my first order with you went fine.
as it was only for a small amount i wasnt that bothered that it didnt come and chalked it up to experience :/ but you have restored my faith in your service by coming on here and being helpful - a good indicator that you are a legit and overall decent seller
i will send you a pm on SR when i am next on to talk about the item
thx again and nice one for sorting things out

Ignore this, I got everything(it was all pretty brilliant as well)! Was just overly worried due to the nature of buying this kind of thing over the net. hashuk is a brilliant seller- and obviously not a scammer. I was just being a moron.
Cheers guys 8),

Hashuk +1
Respect.........
I admired how you handled that ;)
-
hello hashuk, do you sell Edibles or even weed oil? as i would like to make some biscuits :)

Dear Hashuk,
How is shipping to Canada?
THansk
-
This answers probably a little late, but, better late than never.
I have order a few times from hashuk and all the orders have arrived in Canada within 8 days of ordering. My last order was placed on a Sunday and I the product arrived on the following Friday, 6 days.
Hashuk is one of the top vendors on SR in my opinion. Good packaging, good communication, quick delivery and great product.
