Title: Be wary of 'No Sticks No Seeds'
Post by: dark420 on August 14, 2012, 10:10 pm
This new seller 'No Sticks No Seeds'  has exactly the same listings and the same poor English on his page as another seller 'LondonWeedMan', who was recently caught out for leaving himself pages worth of fake feedback all at the same time. The thread about LondonWeedMan and all the details on that incident are here for anyone who hasn't seen it yet:

I don't want to say for sure, but it looks fairly likely to me that they're the same person, so I just wanted to give the other UK buyers a heads up on it.

For all I know he might even send out good weed, but the fact that he might have in the past left himself lots of fake feedback, makes me think I should just use other sellers.

How can create duped feedback, by buying his own listings?
How can this be policed, is there a way to find this out?

Certain its the same vendor - but may be that they now understand how the site works, and may be going legit.

maybe

Yes what most likely happened is he put his profile onto stealth mode, then made a ton of 0.01 btc listings and bought it from another account.

I'm not sure if there's a way to find out, but in the LondonWeedMan thread, someone said they asked an admin and all the feedback was posted from the same account. Plus LWM had all 4 pages of feedback posted at exactly the same time..

Yeh true, but there are other sellers to choose from and I'd rather buy from sellers who didn't post themselves fake feedback.

This vendor is the most genuine and loyal on the Road, my order came in a little late so he has arranged to send me some more of his amazing bud free, the lemon haze and the small joint that came with it was the best weed i've ever smoked, the UK is on the scene with some fire bud these days... well this vendor's is.

cheers No Sticks No Seeds.

Just checked his profile...

Apparently 74 transactions from being a member for 18 days, when you only ship UK to UK and the prices are as extortionate as they are - I'm nervously suspicious that this seller is/ was up to his old tricks.

I've reported the details to Silk Road who's going to investigate and definitely answer whether (at least the feedback, my concern) is genuine.

pretty silly to make assumptions like this, I have had the best weed from this vendor with a joint extra, I'd like more people to recognize this real vendor but these accusations are a turn off. If you're skeptical don't buy, lots of uk people smoke and want the best, which is why his transactions are taking off.

There are various offerings from the states and canada, often sourced from medicinal dispensaries. Don't really know how you can get much better than that to be honest. I've tried all sorts from all areas of the world, the US stuff you can get today is definitely shades better than any Amsterdam stuff.

It's not silly to make assumptions like this. 'Intent to supply' (the UK Criminal Offence) is an indictable offence - so when I'm buying, I like to take as much precaution as I can and everyone else should be doing the same.
Sorry,

Oh, and did you read the other thread? This guy sent me sample weed that I sent BTC directly for, (2.50 - roughtly £12.50 GBP at the time) and when the item came I had to pay £1.09 because there wasn't enough paid for shipping. Ridiculous.
The cannabis I had from him was VERY good, I don't doubt that, but that grade is still available much cheaper elsewhere.

The facts are simple...

He's been a member for 18 days. Only in the last 6 days, were those 74 transactions made. So that's over 12 per day. Now whilst that's not much, as a new vendor, and a buyer looking in, that is a lot. For example, there's a lot more cannabis sellers in the US, and a new seller who's got a couple of strains and good prices has barely made 10 transactions in the 2 weeks he's been a member. Just doesn't add up.

In fact, ... His #38 feedback, was the first Finalise Early one. Just by coincidence. Besides, the rule is now 50 I believe (having been raised from 35).

Now I will sincerely apologise if I'm wrong, but I think there's a few people's minds that need putting at ease.


not bashin you bro, I just think that people from the uk are looking for something better than their usual crap local bud, and to be fair the price of a gram compared to a gram of local isn't too far apart these days. The road provides bud 100x better than my local and at reasonable prices, so I buy here.

Hi guys, I've been informed by SR that the feedback seems legitimate on quick review, so I duly apologise for the negative approach I had towards the seller.

Glad to see he's decided to go genuine, best of luck with the sales. And yes, it's good stuff. Look out for his Super Blue Dream!

Fair enough then, but some feedback still stood out to me, for example:

"ive smoked other phenos. but this one is on point dont buy from no one else. give this guy your money hes got real weed. and cheap for the quality. best that has been on SR alll year uk wise. killing it"
