[Complaint/Warning] Etizolam from turcs on Evolution - Are you kidding me? Late, underweight, and unresponsive...

I first tried placing an order from vendor turcs for 100mg Etizolam near the beginning of January, during the BTC price crash.

It sat at "Processing" for about a week(?). He finally cancelled the order after I messaged him asking why it hadn't shipped.

From the order details:

sorry but due to the crash in btc price i can't fulfill this order

Okay, not that big of a deal--I can understand; bad timing to enter the market as a vendor. And with other vendors pulling out, I'm sure he was swamped at the time. I got my BTC back as well, so no harm done?


Fast-forward to mid-January--I place my order on a Friday night, which was marked "Shipped" the next day at six in the morning--USPS First Class.

A week later I send a very cordial message--merely asking if the order had shipped the day it was marked "Shipped" or not--just so I could know when to expect it. I politely apologized for the bother, and made it clear that I wasn't expecting something unreasonable.

just be patient it will be there soon

About 4-5 days after that exchange, I received the order. With appropriate laboratory procedure and equipment, I weigh out what I can (given that a good amount is stuck to the inappropriately-large plastic baggie).

The advertised about was 100mg. I was able to weigh out ~50-60mg. At most, and this is being VERY lenient on the vendor's behalf, there could not have been any more than 70-80mg in the sealed plastic--not to mention there were small traces of powder outside the ziplock. Very unprofessional, IMHO.

I notified turcs, again with a cordial private message, that I received an underweight package, and that I would extend to him the courtesy of withholding feedback until the matter could be sorted out.

After about two days without a response, I filed a dispute, politely explaining the situation.

Still have not yet received a single word from the vendor.

didn't some people here suggest this was RCsupplier? i had an order with him a couple of months ago, before he imploded and his evo account was disabled, and he sent me a very similarly-worded message. my etiz order was late, and he kept saying "sit tight it will be there soon." seems like most of the research chem vendors are total flakes.

I ordered MXE from him and its been like 15+ days.

He didn't respond to my messages, and I had to put in a dispute so it wouldn't auto finalize.

Maybe it's time to clean house for a bit in case this guy got compromised.

But everything he sells is non-controlled so maybe I'm being paranoid.

I only ordered from him to test out my new Gas Spectrometer anyway.

I had a very similar thing happen with the same vendor. Ordered the 100mg etizolam, he declined the order. because he said he decided not to do samples. He also raised the price of the listing, saying he "hated measuring it out".

I ordered again because the new price was still great. This time it just sat there until it was automatically declined. I PM'd him and no response.

This sucks. I thought TURC's was the man. He shipped 7g's of MXE promptly a month ago and even included a 100mg sample of etizolam... as I had mentioned I had never tried it but was interested in it. Yet another MXE vendor down the drain? I sure hope not...

TURC's please say it isn't so?

Damn man idk what that drug is but that is completely unacceptable. Vendors need to be more customer friendly imo. I mean some are cool af others are straight up dick heads, and expect to get business.


[1 Points] jackiechunnie:

What do you expect from a redditor turned amateur vendor. I doubt he even has a scale with an accuracy of less than 0.005 g, or even 0.01 g.


[1 Points] None:

FWIW, I have pulled as much as 40 mg off the inside of a bag before, so it's not a given that the bag was underweight. Try this: weigh the bag on a milligram scale. Then get some of whatever you were going to dissolve it in (Everclear?) and soak/rinse the bag until all the powder is gone. Then dry the bag in an oven or toaster oven on keep-warm, or under a heat lamp. When it's completely dry, weigh it again to see how much you took off it. Finally, weigh your solvent and determine the concentration of etizolam for future dosing.


[1 Points] None:

this doesn't make it right at all

but i am not surprised in the slightest that someone vending such a small amount like 100mg just doesn't give a shit.

How much of a shit would you give going to all the bother to ship 100mg?

a lot of problems seem connected with very small orders like this, I think a lot of vendors push them right to the back of the "customer service and experience" pile as soon as larger orders come in

some vendors are just dicks and con artists, exactly like you find in real life

sorry you got bumped

I've heard really good things about this guy. Try contacting him again, give him sometime to respond. If that doesn't work, do what you have to do.


[1 Points] None:

I've got an order of mxe supposedly shipped priority on the 21st. After multiple messages, he responded with "that's weird" and said he will reship. I doubt he even sent it the first time. It seems like his operation is going down hill.

My orders (oldest to newest):

2 grams (3-MeO-2-Oxo-PCE) (Methoxetamine) MXE Dispatched on January 11, 2015 03:43 This order was finalized on January 19, 2015 20:45. This was great MXE, fast ship to canada

500 milligrams of pure etiozlam powder Dispatched on January 15, 2015 20:13 Currently disputed as nothings been recieved, Turcs has claimed he has reshipped but i see an exit scam in the future as this just lays the foundation for FEing and keeping buyers at bay while he gets coins together.

2 grams (3-MeO-2-Oxo-PCE) (Methoxetamine) MXE Dispatched on January 17, 2015 04:06 This order was finalized on January 28, 2015 22:16. Long shipping but great MXE

2 grams (3-MeO-2-Oxo-PCE) (Methoxetamine) MXE Dispatched on January 21, 2015 06:20 This has been disputed and I am in the midst of getting a reship

I then have 2 pending orders for 2g and 3.5g that havent been shipped yet

Turcs sucks! 2 weeks with nothing but its on its way, its coming, work with me. Finally I bitched enough that he released my coin! Only after he ignored my messages for a week. Would've been nice to have my mxe right now, since I asked him to refund my coin after the first week of him stalling. Pretty sad that he couldn't find the time to ship anything in the first two weeks. Avoid him at all costs....
