Hello,
With some of the biggest MDMA vendors getting out of the game/no longer safe sources due to busts, profiling or exit scams, options are becoming more limited.
Festigear has been arrested or exit scammed, domesticmolly, one of the largest USA vendors, also just exit scammed. Internationally the biggest player in the game, stealthbomber, has developed a very shaky track record the last 6 months with packs being delayed as much as 2 months, and numerous bulk orders no-showing. There was also an article recently about further busts out of Germany, so more international vendors may be soon to fall that we don't yet know about. I don't know if it may be hurting the supply chain for some of the other USA vendors as well, because it seems like many of the remaining reputable vendors are now out of stock often/have low supply (Ultraviolet, MDMAmphetamineUSA (out), Reximusmaximus: <-- only offering 14g as largest size now) There was a drug survey released that also showed MDMA as having the largest increase in users, so LE may even be targeting MDMA vendors in particular.
I wish I had better news, but I am here to tell you it seems likely that Raveking will also be biting the dust soon. Even if he does return, I would advise EXTREME CAUTION before placing an order from him. Take a look at his Agora page's last 3 updates:
"UPDATES:
4.23- PLEASE send us a message using the messages instead of in your orders please! Every order shows updates when you give a rating/feedback/message/release coins etc. etc. It doesn't tell us what,just that something has happened within this order and that could be over 50+ updates on our order list at a time. If there is a problem with an order it is best to message us on our page,we will see it WAY quicker and fix the problem asap.
6.19- Sorry,we have not been online for a few days. We have a ton of messages and we're sorry for anyone who hasnt gotten a response yet. We will be going through all of these. As an update to our situation,we will be taking an undetermined amount of time off...we know this is a big blow since fest season is just starting,but I could not let my team and I work during these hard times that we are going through at the moment as it could lead to mistakes and we do not want mistakes especially in this business,please give us time. I will personally try to be on once a day to answr any questions and messages and to give periodical updates.
6.15- HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT: We are reimbursing current pending orders! We can not go into details for OPSEC reasons although we will say keep us in your prayers and this is a very personal matter :( We simply can not do business right now,we are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you but this is out of our control. We hope you all understand! Hopefully everything goes well and we can be back soon. We will keep you all updated."
You can tell from these updates he is not playing around, I don't think it's likely he is exit scamming, but it sounds to me as if there was a security breach within his team or a SERIOUS LE scare/ongoing concern (hence the cancelling of pending orders). Looking at his feedback you can see that there was a 10g order no-show about 2 weeks ago, and then only a day or two after that he posts this "HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT". This in combination with the most recent update admitting that people are sending a large volume of messages about the status of their orders leads me to believe many of those orders may be in dispute, thus no feedback yet. There have been some mentions of him ignoring messages in the thread posted about him a day or two ago, and I personally sent him several messages as well, and have received no reply.
So what happened exactly? I have ordered from him 3 times now and I've noticed that the last 2 packs he didn't even bother to use a different return address...EXACTLY the same address was used. The stealth has also gone downhill so bad my last order arrived with NO MYLAR. That's actually what I messaged him about was these security concerns, and if I was to make another order I'd need confirmation from him these issues MUST be addressed for the safety of me and others. It's possible that with the crappy stealth a pack (perhaps the one mentioned in the feedback) was discovered and they seized a large batch of packs...all from the same address. That would explain the sudden group of people demanding to know where their packages are, him freaking out, and his hesitation to let his customers know what is happening.
Whatever the case is, raveking needs to make some kind of statement letting his customers know if they are in danger or not. Because recycling the same return address over and over seems like the easiest way to get a load of bulk buyers caught. If that is the case he needs to man the fuck up and give anyone that purchased from him recently proper warning ASAP in the event they would like to take precautions and clean house. Ordering one of his "small" listings like 7g may not seem like a lot to some of us, but in the eyes of the law, you bet your ass they would kick down your door for 7g of MDMA.
If anyone has any additional information or receives a message back from him, post it here for visibility. I'm cleaning house just in case, I would suggest any other recent (or maybe even not so recent) customers of raveking do the same.
