Selective scamming? EastvDiego (Dream)

On Feb. 2 I ordered EastvDiego's "9-ball"listing. It seemed to be an intro listing, inexpensive way to sample the wares. His profile suggested he'd been through a real shitstorm in the last month, so I reached out in a message when I made the order and expressed a little human compassion. He responded affirmatively. It's now the 17th, he has not responded to ANY messages since that day, and no deliveries have been made to me. I have zero problem receiving parcels at my address, and it's a secured box. I began with a simple "hey, since your only option was first class, could you estimate a dropdate? Silence. Several more messages later I finally warned him that I was going to need to leave negative feedback and report him (for all the good THAT does on an FE order on Dream). Radio silence. Interestingly, Dream has him on "non-trusted" status, buthe is still able to post FE-only listings, of which this was one (it was not large enough to freak out about, but I still don't like being ripped off, and I want to make sure to warn people away from using ANY FE link with him.

I'm not a noob and have a current buyer feedback on Dream of 5/5. Other than attempting to communicate some compassion towards what he described as a very emotionally bad situation, I wasn't bugging him about delivery, etc. Order was accepted and marked shipped within hours, presumably so that it would fully finalize and the coins would be his with no recourse. This person has tons of positive feedback, and a few negative entries like mine.
Just be careful. Perhaps most people are taken care of, but if he can selectively scam in a situation where there's no real chance of penalty, he does. I only lost about $75, but just as I write glowing reviews when they're deserved, I post these too. It is one of the only ways we can keep each other safe(r) At this point (2 weeks for a domestic order) with refusal to contact, I'm pretty sure selective scamming is occurring.

You were good for being nice and a good person but this is still the dark net. Whole time they could've lying about allllll that shit and then you just go and express sympathy etc. then he fucks you. Fucks you right in the ass with a smile on his face. Just gotta stick to the textbook and find your vendor, do hella research on that vendor, don't even consider it if it's FE no matter what. then take your chance and order. Even if it's escrow and a great reputable vendor there's still a million things that can happen with you losing your money.
