You locked him up.  Asshole.
:P

IDK, this happens from time to time on the Road I have noticed.  Sometimes they come back, sometimes they don't.  Assumptions only drive me crazy.  Too many thoughts in my head, gotta leave it alone.

Here's another case of a buyer Finalizing Early and then having a whinge when nothing arrives!! Sorry mate, but what is it going to take for people to use some common sense and stay in Escrow. It's there for a reason, to protect you from situations such as the one you now find yourself in. The Company's vending privileges have been removed. A permanent or temporary ban wont be known until SR investigation is complete. It doesn't look good but time will tell. The new "Report This Vendor" button is certainly getting a workout the site over with a lot more vendors having their accounts suspended than ever before, whilst facing fresh accusations from some faceless people. Interesting times ahead.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Read that and then read the OP's username. Well played :)

TheCompany is a fucking joke. I was in talks with him over placing half pound orders to Australia and after seeing his lack of professionalism and demeanor via private messaging, I decided to steer clear. He expected me to finalise early. Lol.

Also, some food for thought:

I'm waiting on an order from TheCompany as well. The guy stuck it in transit yesterday. Then disappears today.  Fortunately I'm still in escrow. Now i get to wait out the resolution timer. Don't suppose there is a way to report funny business early?

I'm sure he's already been reported or attracted some form of attention from SR admins :)

In defense of "The Police"  (that's a sentence I never saw coming), I am still n00bie (under 10 trans to my name) and in a land far far away - ALMOST ALL O/S vendors, most reputable, best comments, over 300+ pos trans insist that our kind FE.

I cant always afford to just go local & want to try O/S product, so I take the gamble, I still want to have a cry over this most likely not happening for me. 

If you veterans have better suggestions of good O/S vendors that wont ask for FE and have awesome product - than by all means pls PM me! 

PS - Yes I have been f&cking researching!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Learning all the do's and donts of what to post on forums, how to spot a good vendor etc.   But honestly the FE thing is a rock and a hard place for n00bs in far away lands.

Printro, once you find a good international seller that you would like to do business with, try to negotiate escrow. It's what I have always done and to date I haven't had any issues.
Title: Re: ??? TheCompany ??? seller has disappeared?
Post by: Printro on December 29, 2012, 04:30 am
Definitely trying to do that - believe me.    Having said that while being a n00b I am trying to learn, research and find those ppl, if a couple of btc get lost on the way, well welcome to the deep web ebay right.  I would never do it on large amounts, as I said, its a beginning for me and a very small gamble - would not throw big coin in FE, ever.

Half the reason I posted is for my clarity on what happened with that trans...  Not just to whinge.

BTW - while researching the forums, didn't I see you make an offer to FE a vender and if it got lost, you would call it a day????  How is that different?

While it's not ideal, start off local with some small orders, buying some 0.1g's of meth from a variety of vendors. You could also place some 0.2g orders to get you over the 10 transaction mark or even a couple of books from SR that your interested in. It is also very important to being polite and courteous in all your correspondence with every vendor you associate with. How a message is written and worded can sometimes assist with a vendor agreeing to ship an order to you, in Escrow. It's about starting off small, developing a "relationship" with your favorite vendors,  learning as you go on what to do and not to do when situations arise and having the confidence to deal with any problems within your control that need to be fixed.

Never offered to FE but you're half right there. Do some more research and you'll work out why, I've already explained it once to Wadozo.

I got compassion for ya man cuz you lost money.

But I got no sympathy for ya, sorry.  You paid .... so you mean you finalized before receiving your order (FE) ?  I know it's said time and time again, but it's no one's fault but your own sadly.

Thank you, however, for bringing to all of our attention

The Company has listings up now... maybe they just went into stealth or took down their listings temporarily for some reason.  Everything I have heard about the company points to them being a top vendor... seems like occasionally they ship out a little slow but looks as if for the most part everyone gets their shit in good time.  I have not ordered from them personally but that's just my take from what I have seen on the forums.  I wouldn't freak out quite yet everything may be just fine.

I was certainly not 'asking for sympathy', rather was sharing information and requesting the same.

ThePolice is no virgin girl - I knew exactly what I was getting myself in for.

But wait... !?!

TheCompany's seller account has indeed returned.  I do not pretend to understand the mechanics.

Later guys, am on mailbox checking duty until further notice.

Have just re-read your post. 

You used the term 'sad' and 'sadly'.  Sounds like you do have sympathy. 

It's okay to show your emotions - if you ever want to talk to somebody... lol

TheCompany is legit, received o/s, overweight and good product.  Excellent time considering the holidays.

Mate received an order today after 3+ weeks. 7g to down under. Fucking legit.
Chunky monkeys too. First order as well, had to FE n all, now he can sleep easy...or not.

Remember guys it's Chinese new year right now (postal times)  8)

Edit : Although I must comment the packaging\stealth left a lot to be desired...seriously.
In this case the stealth was simply a matter of chance.
