Looking for recent testimony on LandedGypsie/FlavourStop...

EDIT - FS has contacted me to say that other packages have taken just as long during this holiday season and I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. I will update again if the package arrives.

There have been a lot of accusations being thrown around about LG/FS recently and they have been my favorite vendor for close to a year now. I would like to hear what the experience of the community at large has been recently so that we can clear the air and give FS the chance to address anything.

My personal experience: I have ordered off of him many times and enjoyed my orders received tremendously just as many times. Experiences have been smooth (with the occasional postal hiccup) until my most recent... I ordered a gram of the "controversial" heroin batch several days after Christmas to come via Xpresspost. I was hoping it would be waiting for me when I came home from a family road-trip, but alas the box was empty. Not a problem I believed as this wouldn't be the first Canada Post delay I had experienced. But soon the business days started stacking up so after a week had passed I messaged FS and he seemed to agree it was likely just delays and if it still hadn't come on Monday (Jan 8th) that he would check tracking and let me know. Monday came and went with no package so I sent another message. Got a reply Tuesday asking how many business days we were at now and whether this was domestic/international - kind of frustrating starting over message-wise, but I totally get that he doesn't have the time to decrypt every single message in our conversation each time. So I sent him an updated message with the required info to ask his shipping guy about tracking in the same message for his convenience. And Wednesday (still no package) I get a lovely reply from him saying in summary:

You have ordered many times before right? You should know it's there by now even if it was sent standard so please don't try and say it didn't arrive. Stop making new names.

I hate bringing things public and would rather solve directly with the vendor, but when I get sent a message like this my spidey sense tingles. The order was FE'd with a 5 star rating first of all, and I have not once asked for a re-ship or free product of any kind. I am just looking for an update on the tracking of a domestic xpresspost order which has now taken over 10 business days and which he previously said he would check on Monday - seems reasonable to me! (Also no idea what he meant by the stop changing names thing... I've used the same Dream account since its inception.)

To FS: I know it probably gets exhausting dealing with countless messages every day and people trying to scam you, but I have never once complained about an order from you. I am still not ready to blame FS and say that the package was never sent or something as I am still waiting on something from another vendor as well (though this other one was only sent standard) so it is still possible that it is just Canada Post being horrible, but I made this topic here for you to be able to contact me more directly (however Dream works just as well). Trust me I would not be sitting here trying to conserve my measly pile of poor quality local product if I had a G of your stuff beside me LOL. I don't have any bad feelings towards you as a long time friend, I just want to clear things up.

Has anyone else ordered or received any packs from LG/FS recently? What are your thoughts? I've always wanted to try the Ket from them.

/u/landedgypsie Again, this post is not to accuse you of anything. I've used you for a long time and just want to clear the air my friend.

I'm international. My first order arrived fine. Second order never came (larger order). He said he would reship if I finalized. So I finalized and am now waiting for my reship. Hopefully comes soon...

I had a similar experience. First time I ordered from him received in 1 week. Ordered a 2nd time, it never came. He gave me a reship, which never came. I ended up getting a 50% refund by the mods. I've seen several posts about international orders from him not showing, and the re-ships not showing either. Dont think ill order from him again.

I ordered from him for the first time (US) in late October. I never received that order and I just disputed it in order to try to get a reship. Since my order had taken so long I wanted to change it (i.e. get more of one product and less of another). Dream support gave me a full refund and told me to just place a new order to make it easier. I placed a new order in late November. I never received that one either. Dream created an auto dispute since it had been so long and I had kept pushing out auto-finalize. After a few messages were exchanged LG / FS told support to give me a full refund. I was extremely lucky to get a full refund twice.

I have given up on ordering from him at this point. I never received a love letter either. I don’t know if he’s necessarily scamming given that he’s giving refunds but I definitely think something is going on. Maybe his packs are being profiled. I’m not sure but I’m just surprised that neither pack made it. Kind of a bummer.

I placed an order with him for the third time at the end of November. I messaged LG twice regarding the status of said order, only for him to assure me they were going to land soon. When the order turned into an autodispute by Dream market, he asked that I be refunded my full order.

I will say, my first two orders with him were both successful, and the product was fucking delicious. But this last order never showed up.. both of my first orders took just over a week to land. I'm on 6 weeks and change right now regarding the 3rd pack, and I haven't received a LL. I'd like to think he just forgot to send it, idk. He's been a standup vendor to me in the past.


[1 Points] Just-Touch-It:

He’s always been a stand up vendor but he had some issues about 1.5 years ago with express packs being profiled/take by postal inspectors resulting in several customers not receiving anything. I didn’t hear of any arrests associated with it though. He seemed to have sorted it out but maybe it’s happening again? Even long term and good vendors can scam but perhaps this is something else?

My order took about two weeks to South West us. Dope was mediocre at best. Really dissapointing....... Dope came all large rocks but VERY VERY WET. I had to chop it up on a glass pan with industrial heat gun under it to dry it up. Coke was decent very strong diesel smell.
