I've perused Binxsters cannabis listing. This vendor has been on the road for 7 months with over 300 transactions and 100% rate. The feedback doesn't give me any sense of security. There is no information on the forums... and of course, the vendor requires FE.
At the moment I will not be placing an order. I don't FE and especially not under these circumstances.
Please contribute any interaction you've had with this vendor, or your general impression.
-
I was interested in ordering from this vendor until I found out he doesn't have any reviews on the forums despite being active for several months, and requires FE. I'm hoping he's legit because I would love to purchase from him, but I'll wait until there are some positive reviews.

I agree, feedback on a vendors page doesn't describe a lot but the forums do help. Just the fact that nobody posted anything about this vendor sketches me out along with his FE policy...either way I would wait till somebody known gives us a good feedback about this vendor so we could go ahead and purchase.
-
Ive been looking for feedback for a bit now and havent found much. Its a shame, I like a lot of his strains
-
another vendor loosing good paying customers by requesting fe.... looking forward to the day all vendors unite n stop asking for fe all together. They would make more money forsure
-
stinks of a scam
-
i am very interested in some feedback on this guy as well.
anybody??
-
i hate FE and will just not do it with anything over $100
hope to see the day when there is no FE,
i just stick with lucy magee and white shark now, as they ship international without the need to FE and both are a pleasure to deal with.
-
ive read through almost all of his customer reviews on his page and incredibly they are all overly satisfied with 5/5 all from the start
i would really feel much better if some of those buyers would come at here and say something
but either way i think my next purchase will go to this guy
-
I want to try this vendor so bad, but he maintains FE due to btc flucuation. If he would just do the first order in full escrow, he'd get FE in future purchases from repeat customers and make the killing he wants. I wonder if SR will refund since its 7mnth of their feedback swaying our decision to purcahse marijuana at a fair price from this vendor who is either legit or an elaborate scam?
-
i dont think a vendor that is having so many transactions everyday, would need to get people to FE, SR should ban FE for all vendors.
-
I'm in the same boat.
7 months, 300+ transactions, no review thread or much actual feedback beyond the random stuff he gets on his profile with no real detail.
I'm tempted to order a smaller amount with a mix of everything to see before deciding what strains to get on a larger order but the no feedback thread and FE is a bit disconcerting.
Also says he has no photos of the actual weed for security purposes which makes no sense to me either. I can't see how it would be a security issue as long as exif data is scrubbed, an onion file host is used, and nothing personally identifiable is photographed at the same time.
Really tempted to order but all of the above makes me very hesitant.

There could be 700 months of perfect feedback and SR wouldn't refund you if you FE. Do not FE unless you are comfortable losing that money. It's always a risk and there is nothing you or anyone else can/will do if it goes sour.
-
Guys this is a scam..stop FEing for Binxster. I am sorry if any of you lost money on this but it is painfully obvious.
Go back to his first feedback page, it is all within the past month and written by the same person. If it sounds too good to be true, it most likely is - No legit domestic cannabis vendor can afford to sell AAA+ grade on here for those prices, ship worldwide, and allow mix and match in any quantity. Also he says shipping takes 3-5 days avg, and only ships 3 days a week - this buys him a little more time. Same classic tactics of so many other scams before this.
Once again I'm sorry for those of you who didn't realize this earlier, but please spread the word and stop FEing for this scam.
-
I'm glad you guys are really on top of your game because i was just thinking of how much i would like to make a purchase from this guy. If someone is out there who has dealt with this guy, please stand up and make yourself known. Otherwise i'm just gonna hold on to my coins until further feedback. wow what a bummer... I was starting to like this guy. Keep the line open guys until we find sufficient proof.
-
F This it does look like a SCAM! all the 1month comments 35 pages back are all for QP orders. This can't be right.
How do I cancel an order that is still in processing?
-
you cant cancel for a couple of days mate, ask the vendor to cancel for you or wait until he asks you to FE and just dont do it, be carefully he doesnt mark it in transit, as then you will have to wait for ages to go through resolution centre, why can silkroad not look into thingS LIKe this before a load of people get scammed, which is what is going to happen here?
-
thanks larsson..
i sent him and SR support a message to cancel the order but unfortunately he just marked the shipment in transit. i hope SR support can still do something about it. i linked them to this thread as well.
-
that really sucks mate, looks as if your in for a long wait and getting messed about, did he send you a message to FE or anything?
if you are messaging each other, why not send him a link to this thread and lets see if he comes on and has anything to say about all this, i would think he will prob not, but you never know, it has all the looks of a classic scam written all over it to be honest, but hope it works out for you, i personally would never ever FE on anything over $100 and i dont even like it then, i just refuse to do it now as its a big risk to take.
-
I spoke to him and he seems legit.
Correctly, I'm begging you to FE and then come back here to tell us if you received or not.
-
scam starting to unfold, from page 4 of feedback
1 of 5 FE - It's been a week and no package. I'm assuming binxster is a scammer. 7 days item
everyone should now keep this thread bumped and report the vendor asap

I mean I spoke to him and well he isn't wrong,
Binxster:
"So a bunch of people who have never made a purchase from us are calling us scammers. Defending ourselves against the village idiots will only make matters worse. The best defense is a good offense. Our customers receive their packages on a daily basis so there is nothing more to prove. We will be here for a very long time and they village idiots will eventually go away.
We are being attacked for requiring FE and there is a hoard on the forums who hate vendors who request it. I have a buyers account and have been to the forums many times in the past. They will not get us to change our requirements. Bitcoin prices fluctuate way to wildly there days. I am expecting the drop out in price soon with the new ASIC mining rigs being shipped right now and we are not going to fall victim to it."
His reasoning is right tho, am I wrong. I personally am buying a small amount and if it is up to par I hope on making a huge purchase.
I understand why FE is a bad thing don't get me wrong. But as long as I get the product, I don't care. Now if or when he wants to pull out he has set himself up for an easy cash out.
-
you'll never receive any package so forget about it.
his rating is 94 now, down from 100.

::)
Point proven, only YOU can prevent FE.
-
he never messaged me back after i placed the order and when i messaged him to cancel it
i will not FE this and will just have to wait til its obvious to SR that hes a scammer and that the support will help me out. Hopefully the prices of the coin i used wont go down so much by the time its over.
he has absolutely zero reviews here in the forums
-
I hope everything works out well for you Correctly. I really like this guys strains, it would be a bummer if he turns out to be a scammer.
-
Well how much was your order. If it wasn't to much I would be willing to send you half if things go sour. It would be worth it for me because I was talking 20Lb's with him and that is not a small loss.

You think he's going to tell you he's a scam? Of course that's what his reply would be. If you want to give him free money, go ahead, no one is going to stop you. To the rest of you, tread carefully.
-
Blatant scam.. Stay away from him , don't FE , and report him..
-
I was just going to get an ounce. I wont FE to this guy anymore. He hasnt responded to my messages. I will ask him once more to cancel the order.
SR support replied to me without much help saying he can cancel it or when it reaches four days and he hasnt marked it in transit then I can cancel it
Thing is he already marked it in transit so I guess I will have to wait for a while to get my refund.
-

You messaged him and he didn't give back your coin?
I've been through this. There is no problem in refunding your money. If he hasn't done it in 24 hours report him.
Good vendors refund as soon as the get your message. Bad ones, play you a bit, to punish you, and get you to rethink.
I see low price listings up again. My put is the jig is almost up, he is collecting the last of the orders.
We will know in about a week, when all the peps who Fe'ed come a whining.
-
Correctly,
Is that your 1 of 5 rating?
That should get him to cancel quickly ;)
Advice to the people who get screwed, go back and edit your review to 1 of 5.
I saw the prices. Saw the 94% rating so I knew something was up.
Let's drop that down to 80% to warn other buyers.
-
the 1/5 is not mine.
i did not FE so i cannot put feedback
but, yes, uniwiz i told him to cancel my order before he put it in transit
actually i have reason to believe its an automatic thing or something because i live in the opposite side of the world when its 3pm here its 3am there.
so when i placed the order it was 2 am in california
then i sent a message at around 215am to cancel the order (thats when i reopened this thread)
and at around 3am-4am it went into processing and was marked in transit
i did not get any message from him asking me to FE nor a response to my message asking him to cancel
thanks for all the help
maybe the OP should change the topic title and put the word SCAMMER

My FE scammer did the same thing after I wouldn't FE. I was not as quick as you. There were a few PM's exchanged where I rudely told him to go f* himself.
They play that you did read my listing bullshit, or I can't change it now. Don't buy a word of it. See support.....
Then he claimed he couldn't refund, and marked in transit. Now you have 17 days to wait and they know it ;)
I beat his ass on the forums, and got beat myself (BMR) but support was great took 2 days to get a refund. BTC dropped :(
A week later the vendor was exposed for the scammer he was.
If he has got any balls, he should come crying how we are being unjust. Might get him a few k more.
To see all those FE's is amazing.
Time to keep this thread on top.
Where are the people who received product?
OP add scammer to title. We will see a reaction soon enough.
-
Ok buyers, time to stick together, we are about to be attacked.
Anyone who FE'ed off this vendor, and didn't get product please edit your rating to 1 of 5, to make future buyers come to forums.
Do it, NOW!
Once the vendors rating drops to below 90, his friends should come a running, or his sales will stop.
I'm won't repeat myself. If your a victim read my thread (below about not to FE), then post there, please.
Take care people, watch your back, and BTC.
BTW I might have made the same mistake, but used the forums. Thank you, OP
-
wow another one again ... take it he,s been reported chaos ? they should be able to freeze the btc .. so if your in escrow youll be ok
-
Keep this on top :P
-
Correctly, you now are going to wait until it allows you to put it into resolution. Because otherwise it will auto finalize.
I am buying 14 grams as a test and if it all works out I will review the product and his service.
If not then the scammer flag goes up. But I'm not so sure guys. I will report back

Good shit on taking one for the team :P
Sadly, you just lost out on 175 though. This is definitely a scam bud :-\
-
Somebody's got some explaining to do.
Account shut down in less than 12 hours.
Thanks SR Support!
Still no posts defending the vendor.

hey everybody im nervous as hell right now cause I have $1,500 on the line with this guy. I placed my order monday and he says he ships tuesday, thursday, and saturday so I was expecting it saturday since it's "shipped" priority mail but after it still not coming in I decided to message him. I asked him for the tracking # and shortly after messaging him I seen a review on his vendor account saying its a scam so I expected to get no reply. But he actually did reply and with some good news! but im still not sure if its a lie or not not but here is the conversation
READ FROM BOTTOM UP:
blazedd852: Oh sorry about that man i was thinking it was the 5th but awesome dude thanks! i'll definitely let you know how the edible is 03/16/13
Binxster: Its been 4 Days. We also only ship Tues/Thurs/Sat and depending on which day you ordered, that could possibly kill a shipping day.
I just check the tracking and it is due to arrive on Monday. We also put a little something extra in the form of a baked treat for you try. We may start selling those on here soon too. Let me know what you think of it.
After checking the tracking, ETA is Monday. If you do not receive it by Monday, we will gladly release tracking info. 03/16/13
blazedd852: Hey it's been the 5th day after my order was placed could I have the tracking # please? thanks 03/16/13
Binxster: np 03/12/13
blazedd852: forgot all about finalizing early sorry!! i'll do that now 03/11/13
Binxster: Thank you for your order. Will begin the packaging on your S L H as soon as its finalized.
Thanks! 03/11/13

Sorry bud binxsters SR account is banned. You wont be seeing that $1,500 back.
Actually I'm not sorry.. STOP FINALIZING EARLY!
Why can't you boys and girls realize there are great deals in escrow on SR? You people need to start living by the motto "if something seems too good to be true, it probably is."
-
Yeah thats what I was thinking but what he replied seemed to real and honest cause if anything wouldn't you think he wouldn't even reply or reply with something else? I guess we'll see tomorrow whether it comes or not but im not gonna count on it. In the meantime I have a backup supply of NoStress's OG Cheese coming in sometime this week ;D

Stop being so gullible man. You're the reason these huge scams exist. People like you need to feed the scammer, and he just won you over with a couple of words lol.
You seem pretty ok with just losing $1,500..

ya but.......
that weed was the cheapest on the road. The vendor needed FE to keep prices down.
blah, blah, blah
Been there, done that.
Is anybody going to come to this vendor's defense?
Where did all those good reviews come from?

yeah true guess i just gotta accept the fact my money is gone. but its all cool i knew i was gonna take a loss eventually on this site and its pointless getting mad about it cause its all said and done and i just think of my mistakes as a learning experience, see if I ever FE again.. im just happy I had some emergency cash to get some more bud. If it wasn't for that yeah i'd be pretty fucking angry lol
-
he made all those reviews himself
glad his account has been banned
i hope SR support will be giving me back my coin still in escrow with this douchebag
@synikall112 another good way for you to make sure you dont get scammed is to check these forums twice and thrice before purchasing!
should not have placed my order the mere fact that he had no reviews in the forums and no presence whatsoever should have been signal enough
-
How can you dummy all those reviews? He paid a good price for that.
Don't beat yourself up, you both did good, nice job.
You shut the fucker down in 24 hours, not too bad :)
You will get your funds back. Did you contact support?
I think he got 14-16 days of pure FE scamming.
-
Anyone who purchased from this vendor needs to contact SR support immediately for a refund.

Is it possible to get funds back even after FE?
Doesn't hurt to ask, the worst support can say is no.
I would be interested in their reply to you.
Please post, so I can use in future.
This this had some classic signs, we took a while to figure it out. I have a hard time believing all those reviews were fake. That dude was very patient.
Again, OP, and correctly did very good. Who ever hit his review stats, thanks, thanks a lot.

I just got my coins back :)

Didn't you get your funds back in less than 24 hours, amazing. SR Support I'm impressed ;)
-
Great job correctly for exposing this guy... Also congrats on getting your coins back..You definitely earned it.
-

Good find correctly. Everybody merge over to SR and report metroconnect.

This this had some classic signs, we took a while to figure it out. I have a hard time believing all those reviews were fake. That dude was very patient.
I knew his reviews were fake from the beginning. Does the username mendomistress sound familiar?
227 transactions..
100% positive feedback over 7 months..
FE on everything all the way up to LB's
NO FORUM REVIEWS!
She's the one that had A+ AA+ AAA+ AAAA+ ounces all the way up to LB's for each category. His/her scam was so thought out it was mindblowing.
Lost $800 dollars to that cunt donating my funds to prove that person was a scammer. I shit you not a week after I ordered she got banned. Called the scam from the minute I started browsing her page. I have a natural sense for scammers on here, and I make it my damn duty to knock the shit out of every one I see to avoid them getting tens of thousands off you innocent folk.
-
was got too much fooled/tempted with his stats, and the strains, and there goes 2.5k down the drain, man, organized scam , i admit its total greediness for the green,
and by the time u guys blew the whistle i already been fe, i smell something fishy but the feedback was contradicting lot
it really doesnt make sense if u do not fe look at how many vendors are there who sells bulk cannabis without fe?? if its more than a quater pound everyone asks fe, the best feedback we can see 100% 300 transactions , so whats the deciding factor unless someone burns and from the day the scam starts it takes at least a week to getting it unfolded but this guy i was watching for two weeks and nothing bad came up
cant SR monitor this sort of extraordinary fe's and temporary suspend the withdrawals from that account for few days and see if its a scam or not?? this really sucks (i know again its my greediness)
well thanks folks for stopping the moron before more people gets hurt, appreciate

You really need to re-evaluate your strategies for ordering drugs off the road.
Firstly.. the forums. You are utilizing them now, so why couldn't you utilize them before you ordered? It's as simple as starting this very exact thread!
Second off.. there are quite a few vendors that offer bulk in escrow. Again.. search around. The main public bulk vendor for dank weed is sourdieselman.. I've seen plenty of NEW users order off of him in escrow so don't give me that I'm a new user bullshit. Work your way up and buy small until you get the necessary stats to order big if you don't want to order from SDM. We all had to endeavor the climb to legendary stats :P
-
something needs to be done. i mean how effective these scams are makes me ponder what if....lol im joking but point is. its lucrative.
what about when you FE you are brought to a page that a license agreement when you install software making you read 30things like
Never FE for a vendor without reviews
never etc etc
then you have to check you read them
in hopes someone says hrmm maybe i shouldnt fe
then maybe it wont be so profitable. dude made 10-20k for some typing and roleplaying
-
If you FE'd I doubt you will get any coins back, I FE'd and lost over $2000 once and once you FE you get the good ol' "shouldn't FE ever" statement from admins.
It can't hurt trying though.
-
You know what it is at the moment all these new vendors are asking for FE and then they wonder why no one buys from them?
I wanted to get a sample of a vendors hash yest I ordered a gram and he asked me to FE now its not a lot of money about $25 but its the principal involved so I politely declined and then he sends me a PM saying I don't need buyers like you anyway I have enough good customers and this is from a vendor that has ZERO transactions.?
All these new vendors scare me a little bit they don't seem to understand how things work, if anything you are offending buyers especially high value respected buyers by asking for FE all the time
I have a feeling the road will crash and burn unless SR step inn and give all these vendors a shake up, because people will just simply stop buying.
-
Good find correctly. Everybody merge over to SR and report metroconnect.
Anyone who purchased from this vendor needs to contact SR Suu pport immediately for a refund.
Is it possible to get funds back even after FE?
This this had some classic signs, we took a while to figure it out. I have a hard time believing all those reviews were fake. That dude was very patient.
I knew his reviews were fake from the beginning. Does the username mendomistress sound familiar?
227 transactions..
100% positive feedback over 7 months..
FE on everything all the way up to LB's
NO FORUM REVIEWS!
She's the one that had A+ AA+ AAA+ AAAA+ ounces all the way up to LB's for each category. His/her scam was so thought out it was mindblowing.
Lost $800 dollars to that cunt donating my funds to prove that person was a scammer. I shit you not a week after I ordered she got banned. Called the scam from the minute I started browsing her page. I have a natural sense for scammers on here, and I make it my damn duty to knock the shit out of every one I see to avoid them getting tens of thousands off you innocent folk.
Yes looks like MetroConnect is up next on the list of scammers, requires fe for all purchases and even tries to entice with the cheapest prices
-
just reported metroconnect. he's not allowed to ask anyone to FE since he's not done enough fake transactions. i mentioned the feedback too so hopefully it'll be looked into and he'll get banned before any legit buyers get sucked in.
-
I reported that seller just a while ago ^^
Good to know we all can spot these attempt scammers pretty fast
-
guys theres a saying... too good to be true... usually is. dont FE... and dont FE on pounds for $10
-
great :) now if we can all catch these scammers early and report them before they get to scam anybody
we will burn their 200$ SR registration fee (is that the correct amount?) as well as all they spend to start up their scammer account
burn them before they burn us
-
damn i'm just trawling for scammers and rule breakers now. waiting on orders is boring.
canadianknowledge? http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/9138c67e44
5 POUND LOT SUPER PREMIUM CHEESE DAWG *organic* ฿263.09
FE of course and only 11 transactions... ignorance or scam? looks more like scam. i gotta say i'm disappointed in these new short term scammers, they just don't put the time and effort in like the oldskool guys.
-
+1 all good for you guys , I reported them too . lets see
-

few things bro like to express, i check the forums regularly but there was no whistle blowing about this guy anywhere till i fe ( guess its my bad luck)lol i wanted to start one early but was too late i admit it and being a vendor here do not wanna be that judgementel on another vendor which had the brilliant feedback
and bro SDM only ships domestically i need an international shipper, and beleive me i check the entire cannabis listing everyday for changes and grabs it, but internationally apart from mr.o no one sells in pounds again mr.o also asks to fe for big international orders
and its no problem about the stats mate u wil be amazed with my stats to say it shortly i never took home anything which i earned from the road , believe me if i say not even a cent, i really doubt there will be more than dozen guys in road who got this stats, im not bragging bro its just the point is stats doesnt matter when u buy bulk & international, every big order i got i had to fe, no matter how much ppl say about not to fe its finally about do u want drugs u like or u dont wanna fe, believe me bro thats the reality
so im sad this happened and im sure its lot of bad vibes on binxster
-
and SR will be issuing no refund i got this from them so guess its so long to the coins

Sorry... I feel really bad. He faked so much feedback about himself, I can see how it would be easy to fall for that. We are working on ways to catch vendors who fake feedback early on so this doesn't happen again. Unfortunately there was no money in his account when we banned him so there is nothing to reimburse the victims he scammed with.

Well, here's the most recent feedback on metroconnect's profile:-
FE'd as listing required.
Spoke with vendor a lot over past few days. Giving him a chance to prove himself.
Also, forum posters...
Just because asked to FE doesn't always mean a scam.
There are times when people can not allow huge amounts to remain in escrow for 3 weeks.
What it boils down to is this... Here's a new vendor starting out and hasn't been here for over a year like other bulk vendors. So don't judge so quickly. Give him a chance to prove himself.
As far as I'm concerned, the seller hasn't read the seller's guide which depicts the regulations - that there's a minimum 35 transaction count in order to ask for FE. So in breach of that...
I'd place an order now, but no way am I finalising early for a new vendor, no sir.
-
they really need to sort this out soon :( Its just not fair on new buyers :-[
-
that's why the 35 transaction thing is in place, so vendors have to prove themselves. what a dicktard. so metroconnect has seen this thread and knows he'll be outnumbered by people seeing how transparent the scam is and that's their cowardly response. another fake feedback. if a new vendor can't afford to have their money in escrow they shouldn't be setting up on here. he's indisputably in breach of the rules.

he was reported days ago :o
support really needs to get more support ??? it must be really hard for just 2 guys to deal with all this ???
-
they probably have quite a backup if they take the weekend off. they'll get to it. it's not like they can just put a job ad up for a customer service assistant or something.
funny how all the most recent feedbacks mention how they're finalising early when none of the other ones did before he got called out on here ::) :D getting desperate to make a bit on this scam before losing his bond!
-
Well I only gave half of the story... when I did PM him earlier today questioning why he's asking people to FE, this was his reply:-
Your correct about the FE policy. I've priced my items too low at the moment and can not afford money being held in escrow. That's the only way I can explain this. I didn't have FE to start off with, but then I ran out of funds. If I had the funds in escrow, I could've restocked and kept working. I apologize if this doesn't work with you.
Don't know how that bodes with people.

I was thinking the exact same thing... Damn their prices looked nice smh, I'm no vendor but knowledge is the key to staying afloat I've purchased orders from 3-5 confirmed scammers but they all came through I never had to FE but shortly after my initial purchase they would require others to finalize early I almost took the dive because some of these scammers had damn good weed at great prices i digress... In closing I've on FE once the vendor came thru but the product was blah it was hella cheap so i guess i got what I paid for but since then I've taken a hard stance to never FE again
-
account suspended. boom 8) and he wasn't even significant enough to warrant his own scam warning thread hahaha
-
metroconnect has also lost their sellers privileges tonight.
So many scammers.

It will keep happening >:(
-
Well done on us who are getting wiser and reacting faster to these shitty scammers and admins for reacting fast to complaints.
But it will keep happening as long as new members or even old see a deal that is too good to miss.
Think twice and don't order without going through all there feedback and looking on the forum, and even then don't FE there's no fucking point. If the seller cant afford a few days in escrow maybe he should get a real job.

+1 ;)

DONT FE for anyone, i knew this was going to happen.
i only use lucymagee and whiteshark for international , as i have ordered from both vendors a few times now and they dont require FE and also give you the tracking.

+1! I encourage all my customers to choose a tracking option.I don't like asking customers to finalize early, I always try and get people to stay in escrow. Sure I have to spend some time without product, but I prefer that then having a customer claim his package never arrived. Tracking allows me to see what is going on, and make sure the buyer isnt trying to pull a fast one on me!
I don't see why a seller would ONLY have FE options, just doesn't make sense to me. When I ship to the UK (majority of my client base) with my express it typically takes 4 days. Really how much does waiting 4 days for funds affect someone?
AVOID any sellers who ONLY offer FE.
-
Canadianknowledge?
beware asking fe and aint got 35 transaction .. read the scam threads..
report him
