Title: Has anyone recieved from TabMonster lately?
Post by: caveman104 on January 14, 2013, 11:40 pm
With TabMonster being under review by Avengers and tons of people waiting for delivery from him I figured I'd start a thread to see if anyone has received their shipments and has quality reports.

No luck here yet, but he said it shouldn't take more than 5 days to arrive and I'm on day 4. Assuming he shipped when he said he did. I'll update tomorrow.

Haven't received and I placed my order before you.  Hasn't responded to my messages either.  Caveat emptor.

Ordered January 4th, he marked in transit a couple hours later. Then he says he didn't ship till January 7th on his profile, it's been more than a week now with nothing, not even a reply to my PM.

Man why didn't I just order from Canada? I could have gotten more ug for cheaper and it'd have been here two times over by now. That's the last time I ever FE. If a vendor looks at my perfect buyer record and still requires FE he can kiss my ass.

I also ordered on the 4th and have had NO answer to my PM's and (obviously) no product.  I will never be FE'ing again, as I also have a perfect buyer record with a substantial amount of purchases under my belt.

My thoughts exactly.

Maybe someone can chime in here, but why isn't it a more common policy to leave a 3/5 or worse feedback right away when required to FE? At least it will dock the sellers rating until you get the product. With TabMonster, all the FE's with 5/5 are the reason he has such a high rating

 >:( i have ordered from him a few times and got the product in like 3 days it has been 5 days now and no luck he wont respond to my messages and i feel like he has taken my money and ran at this point. i am not happy and even if i get the stuff hes getting a 3 for not talking to me. if any vendors act this way they should not sell when you make a sellers account it says to "Treat your customers with respect. Go above and beyond for them. Get your products to your customers quickly, easily, and anonymously as a Silk Road independent seller. '" i feel like he has failed at this and for that. and for this reason i can not rate him a 5 out of 5 he is getting a 1 until i get my product and a 3 in i ever do get it. everyone else so go do the same thing to your rating.

So mad I didn't check Avengers before I ordered. I was too excited to find a US seller and rushed to place an order

Lol you and me are one in the same. Personally I ended up just eating the $60 and now I bought a 2 tab from Tessellated so it's a lesson learned really.

Unless he went rogue, or is caught up somewhere [legally or criminally] I know he was legit before. I had gotten 1g of the purest, most potent crystallized MDMA powder from him back in November/December. It was shipped  very stealth, vacuumed, and tidy. He was my first ever [real] SR purchase and even though I messaged him with questions at the time (being a total fucking noob :P) he never once responded to any of my messages. So that's not out of the ordinary.

But my product arrived within two days (We're geographically close to one another, I found.)

I'm sorry this is happening to you guys though. I kind of hope he's still around/comes back. Because his MDMA was fire, affordable, and being so close I could have probably gotten that shit same day if I paid the postage for it.

:'(

Just adding my post to the list of complaints. Same story. Ordered from him before (in fact just a few weeks ago) everything went perfectly and the product was fantastic. Ordered again on Jan 7th and now he requires FE. I figure it's okay since I just got some tabs from him, so I do it. He marks it as in transit late that night and I figure that means he'll ship it in the morning, which is cool. It's now the 15th and nothing. Pretty disappointing, really wanted to take it with some friends this coming Friday, but now we have nothing and I'm out some serious money for FEing early.

I'm just hoping I'll get it eventually, but since everyone is having problems that's looking less and less likely.

"Not FE, not ever."

Bad move man. If someone randomly asks for FE and you have the stats and trust, it would be best not to unless it's a very specific circumstance, which, I can't even think of a situation that would require that really. Hell, even if someone as trusted as Cousin Frank, Oliver, Arn0ld, or anyone else with good stats asked then I wouldn't do it.

1) Keep an eye on the reviews. See how recent they are, and what the ratings are. This is the first thing I look at. When was the last review, and what was the rating? This isn't always a 100% accurate judgment of someone's standing, but it's definitely something to keep in your peripheral.

2) If reviews stop coming in, or start coming in negative as you approach the Auto Finalize, click Resolve immediately! Unless the seller is communicating with you and has a DCN and says the package is on it's way/reshipped and you trust them, in which case you still would probably want to click resolve until it arrives, as that can buy you some extra time. In this case however, it seems no one has any communication with the vendor [other than him asking for FE..] so there's no reason not to choose to Resolve.

I'm really bummed this happened to you guys, he was a great seller and I even had him bookmarked and became a fan.

EDIT
Just checked out his seller page. :( I hope he is still legit...because that's quite a few FEs on there..

I see where he asks for FE to keep his stock up. Now everyone has their different styles and ethics of dealing..but..well..as a [non-SR] seller I wouldn't sell product I don't currently have in my inventory. That's just bad business practice. You all may still have a glimmer of hope if he is just asking for you guys to invest for him to reup his inventory and right now he's simply out of product. Can't ship what you don't have. But ultimately it's hit or miss. With all these FE's, he can simply delete his account/let it die, start a new one and rebuild a new reputation. It's a volatile situation. There may still be room for optimism, but be careful guys.

Someone should report this fool to SR before he scams anyone else.

At least he took his listings down now.
