He was very much "NO FE EVER" now every listing he has is FE ONLY. Hes still pushing the same xanax bars XK had. He was a reseller for XK. He has a shit ton of new listings, all below price. OC 80s for 40 dollars...
Looking fishy..
Elaborate was Reselling for xanaxking. possible exit scam or LE?

Wasn't XK busted a week or so before the DEA made it's announcement, ie around 5/21-22? Then look at the announcement on ELABORATE's vendor page: "5/24/2014: There's been a 72hr delay on ALL packages that were suppose to be shipped out on 5/21. All packages have now been shipped and should arrive with in 3-5 days. Apologies for this inconvenience. This was due to getting a late shipment in." All the feedback that is listed is for people who FE'd. Then add on these new, super cheap listings? Fuck that noise. This is suspicious as hell.

A lot of people are saying XK is cooperating with LE, but that's all speculation for now, as far as I know. It IS possible if he was supplying Elaborate, LE has obtained his name and address, as it appears XK failed to clean house.
Trust your instincts, do not order. If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.

Yes. For a personal buyer getting rolled up in a vendor bust is, currently, your biggest threat. I'm just upset at the attitude of so many that they are untouchable. Oh LE doesn't care, order away, and don't forget your opsec rituals to make you feel safe. If the Feds feel the DNM are too much of a problem they will use other tactics. One of those tactics could be grabbing vendors and getting them to flip on customers and suppliers. Or they could just target more demand in general.

If it was LE, he would not be requiring you to fe.
LE doesn't want your bitcoins. They most likely don't want to sell you drugs, because then they just have an address. They would have to get the drugs, package, and send it to you. They then have to control delivery, because without the product and the confirmation of the package being yours, they have no proof it was you ordering.
The only real scenario would be an exit scam, which is highly likely, since he was selling xk's bars. He is probably flipping about, wondering is my door going to get kicked down by the DEA in the next few minutes.
TLDR: arrows point to exit scam. Vendor is freaking(probably)
(Haven't slept in a few days, but I am 90% sure this isn't sleep deprived ramblings, gimme a chance.)

Elaborate has deleted his review thread in the Agora forums. We all know what's up now. Man's making an EXIT!

No. LE would never target small fry buyers. /s

Well apparently LE is able to track every orderthat was ever sent by XK. So if elaborate is reselling thousands of pills then he might be on the radar. Who knows, hopefully his drop was different from where he sold or lived. I doubt he's being controlled by LE though. If anything, he's probably just doing an exit scam. Sucks, but better then going to prison.

"Attorney Melinda Haag said six of the defendants were arrested in various East Bay locations on Wednesday"
indictment sealed on 22nd.
looks more like exit than LE.
Anybody know for sure it's XK bars?
[1 Points] ILOVELSD:
Elaborate also has an account on Evolution and hasn't logged in since june 2nd according to his profile. Nothing has changed on that site.
[1 Points] _Curious_George_:
Well, glad I bought from XK when I did.
[1 Points] rappercake:
I figured this would happen and that he was just flipping XK's shit, but I can confirm that he was legit up until now.
[1 Points] theoldkrow:
His account on agora is in vacation mode.
Who did it? Mods or himself?
[1 Points] gwern:
So, what did it turn out to be? Was it an exit scam?
[-1 Points] anangrygayvirgin:
Cuz he is
I've been around since the first few weeks of SR1 and never, EVER, has any legitimate vendor done anything like this.
In fact, the known association with an arrested vendor, the sudden new products, the low prices, the insistence on FE, it's all absolutely textbook.
Avoid this fucker like the plauge.
