I want to preface this post by saying I have been working with Chaletla both on BMR and directly via email for some time now, and I have been his biggest supporter for quite some time. His cocaine has the best quality/price ratio on the DNM, in my opinion. However, this transaction, he has either stolen 1500 dollars from me, or he has taken on more orders than he can fill.
Almost 2 weeks ago, I placed a sizeable order with Chaletla via email. Chaletla has always been extremely careful with his OpSec, to the point he will blacklist anyone who sends him an unencrypted message, and once changed email accounts because someone did so.
However, this time I was stunned to see he sent me an order confirmation in cleartext. An order confirmation containing my deposit address, what I had ordered, and my fucking drop address. Unencrypted. For anyone to read. When I messaged him telling him how serious a breach of security this was, he apologized and offered to pay for a PO box for a year if I wished.
Long story short, that was 12 days ago, and he isn't answering my emails, and I don't have anything to show for it. He ships priority mail, and I have never had a package take longer than 4 days to arrive. I have emailed him repeatedly, asking for some kind of update or at least information on my package, and he has ignored me. I can see that he has logged into his Silk Road account today, so he's obviously not on vacation. He has always done right by me in the past, and he's known for his customer service and speedy shipping.As far as I can see, he has either scammed me, is woefully undermanned, or my package has gotten seized. Either way, I'm fucking pissed off, as this is a guy who has been vending since SR1 and should have his shit together.
I'll update if I hear anything else from him, but at this point I would advise anyone considering buying from him to do so at your own risk. The gear is amazing, but it's useless if he doesn't send it to you
