Sorry to hear this.
CharasBros has always demanded FE. It is in his profile description and his payment policy ... And always was. I have had a transaction with him in the past and they came thru, but I would certainly not do it on a large order.
Reporting him is not going to work (I have done it too) since demanding FE or not is vendors decision.
I asked specifically for tracking and he said yes ? then said but f.e first then I,ll give you the tracking ? sure  and he sends a dodgy tracking number ..not only did he go back on his word he tried the old bully boy tactic  >:(  ass hole
sent a message to Sr support and the sent back this

Hi
If I place a large Order can I have it tracked? 4 days
CharasBros(92) yes order for 500g and more shipped by EMS with tracker 4 days
me.thank you 4 days
me. namaste my friend
I have already ordered from you before but my order of 10g of sadhu hash and 1-2g of temple ball didnt arrive , yet my 1g of normal hand rubbed hash did?, so I am very reluctant to order from you again .plus the stealth wasnt that good being in a plain envelope which was ripped a little bit
having said that would you be prepared to sell & send out a 100 g order tracked I will pay for that ofcourse ... as a test order ?
have got a few 100g orders from other chara vendors can do this for me
take care and let me know.
CharasBros(92) no problem I can send 100g tracked,
 will do,
me.but whats the deal first , how much for 100g of the sahdu grade? & is it sent in 2 50g packages ?
I find most of the ordinary charas are adulterated even the stuff I got in katmandu ..so will be interesting to see
let me know 2 days
CharasBros(92) all 100g will be sadhu grade, yes two envelops 50g each.
me.you havent said how much ? 1 day
CharasBros(92) herehttp://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/item/f17d809d63
me.it is ordinary malana charas I will send you sadhu grade.
CharasBros(92) hello,thanks for your order, it already been packed and with dispatch, if your order shipment with unregistered mail please finalise your order.
me. Hi its not ,its to be tracked 1 day
CharasBros(92) right, but you have to FE anyway, I do not ship large orders in escrow, so all my orders FE 23 hours
 me.why have I still got to F.e when its to be tracked ?Havent had to f.e on any other large orders have you looked at my stats 16 hours
CharasBros(92)please, I do not look to any one's stats, I do my business the way I chose, if you not happy, keep ordering from other vendors it is free market, right.
Let me know, what to do with your order. 10 hours
me.so you cancel and I Loose money with the collapse of the btc ?nice
Sorry but I refuse to F.e and you cant make me , you promised it would be tracked..right? & never did you say F.e ...so why does it need to be f.ed , you dont trust me? feelings mutal.
its against sr rules to force buyers to F.e Im gona pm support & ask what to do. this isnt right

Now are you gona deny he is a scammer & should be banned     Sr ?

my reply from Sr support

I know of a buyer who has ordered small quantities from this vendor twice and had no problem with either transaction.  He was asked to FE both of them and obliged the vendor.  So, there are some repeat customers out there who have had good experiences and not been scammed by this vendor.  That being said, I find it odd that someone who is a repeat customer with great stats such as the person I'm referring to would be required to FE.  At some point, people are going to run out of patience with this practice and their business will be more difficult to conduct.  At what point does caution on the part of a vendor become simply undue generalized skepticism?  If they have really been scammed that much, they should reevaluate whether they want to do business here.  If they have not, then they are just taking advantage of early payments or are in need of those payments to obtain stock to sell.  Either way, FE for everyone is a bad policy for good vendors.  Clearly, it makes people think twice about doing business with the vendor.

so this vendor clearly states in his profile that all orders must F.E, you've ordered from him in the past, having to F.E early, and receiving only 1/3 packages, on top of that, poorly stealthed, yet YOU want to blame him for YOU making an overall bad decision to spend even MORE money with him?

get real.  quit being a little bitch/

I know he wants fe thats why I asked for a tracked item and no f.e  he said yes then waits 3 days asks me to fe I said no and refunds my lower btc ? so why bother unless you plan to rip it off.

Charasbros is just one big dick head with his customers after f.e. and a dick before f.e. lol
But his stuff is pretty good. Not sure if it make up though for the risk of early f.e and abrupt or lack of communication.
Fuck that and yeh I will take my money elsewhere  ;) guys an arsehole

@joolz, people who come to this forum to ask a question about this vendor will see this thread. Those that do not you will not catch by bumping this up. Let it rest, move on, get a smile on your face.
But I agree on one thing - DO NOT FE!

Why not send the vendor the link to this topic and let him come speak for him self. I see this topic come up alot in here with charasbros scam ect ect, maybe its not the case? im sure either DPR is keeping him for the paltry few btc he/she can get from his sales, which i very much doubt.!!!!
or everything is fine, some vendor do have the right to ask to FE so dont buy if ur not going to be prepared to buy from some trader here for a year+ with some good feedback results, who apparently gets away with scamming for so long.

I might be missing the point here.

But seems you two got your wires crossed when you ASSUMED that tracking automatically meant no FE, in the normal course of events it would, but I wouldn't automatically assume cos a vendor agrees to track that he doesn't also want FE, especially if his profile calls for it.

Or is it just GTEED tracking by default is code for no FE?

Id expect finalization would come when the tracked item arrived otherwise it could be  fake tracking that was pmd for said item. ;)

It is extremely possible he is a scammer/ selective scammer, as I have heard many reports of this sort of thing. On the other hand, he does mail from India, which is a source country (hence flagged at customs) as well as a place notorious for its absolutely terrible/ corrupt postal service. This would account for the FE requirements: there is a high probability of loss for him and the customer. Perhaps its a combination of both. However, bad postage is almost as good a reason not to order as him being a selective scammer. I can't say either way, but I know I, for one, never order from him. I did order from him once at the beginning of his career, where I did receive the package and found his packaging to be exceptional. Then again, it is possible that he and his packaging has slipped.

Are you an idiot? First of all it says you have to FE on his page, if you didn't want even the possibility of that then don't go to him. Second I've used him several times and he's never let me down and I finalised early the first time, as expected. Third don't slander a good vendor because you're too fucking thick to understand words on a page.
