Title: Where's US Vendor Vicodin?
Post by: FenderGuitarMan on June 30, 2012, 08:36 pm
Tried contacting him for last 48 hours: nothing. Now he's pulled all his listings. Please tell me all is well with him. He's my fave seller!

He's still keeping up with his work.  Absent other info, I'd assume he wants a break around the holiday.

Yes indeed. Spoke to him via PM. He's just taking a couple days off. It's all good.

Is everyone getting their deliveries from Vicodin on time?  I know he's one of the most respected vendors on SR, which is why I am especially worried that I have not received a package that he marked shipped (USPS Priority) on 6/26.  Under normal circumstances, it would have arrived last Thursday. 

I have a file on an encrypted partition with my address that I paste to  gpg (to encrypt for order) for every order, so I always know I have the address right. The package either wasn't shipped on time, was shipped 1st class (despite saying Priority), he made a mistake on the address or postage, USPS is fumbling to get it here, or the package is seized.  I've never had Priority mail take more than 3 days.

He packs well and it was a small order, so a seizure seems unlikely.  But the possibility still worries me terribly.  Now I am forced to clean up and am not comfortable ordering from anyone for the time being.

Are  you fucking kidding me?

If everyone that reads this can't understand what a pain in the ass it is to deal with A LOT of the buyers on here..then your like this guy...... An idiot.


How the fuck are you worried "terribly"?

What do you have to clean up?

Vic has been here forever in SR time. Has perfect feedback.

Your package will get there.

Like you said...it's a small order..He sure is fuck is not going to rip you off.

AND QUIT LISTENING TO THESE PARANOID FUCKS ON HERE. NO USA TO USA PACKAGE IS GETTING SEIZED!!!!

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST~!

And instead of making a post "where is VIC, I am worried it has been a day"...... 

Vendors take breaks. Just because they take their listings down it does not mean anything. My god if he went to vacation mode you would really have a heart attack.

It's a god dam Holiday and on top of that ...maybe he is just taking a break!

This post should be locked Lim. There has already been an answer from someone that say's he has messaged them. You can clearly go to his page and see he has logged on.

I get you people want your drugs. But if a vendor has no listings, there is no need to make a post about where they are or if everything is o.k.

SEND THEM A MESSAGE. And wait. Then wait more.

What most Buyers dont understand is that there is alot of detail in sending packages. I am very disciplined only beasue if your Not, it's best way to get busted.
Prepping: You have to decide what kind of envelope of its First Class, if its Priority you have half a dozen choices. You gotta have your gloves on and that's time consuming.
Wrapping: I usually count pills or capsules 2 or 3 times to make sure no one can say they got shorted, yet some fucks still make that claim. Will I use some sort of cushin or not. Then there's the labels, double checking addresses..
Shipping: I have 5 to 8 different locations I alternate to make drop offs.
PM's: Every hour on the hour someone has questions or want to know where order is even though they have DCN,
BC's: Trying to get best deal on selling and buying, then tumbling. Do I get it in cash or do I route to one of several accounts,

You get the picture? Everyone wants their stuff NOW as though it's a Mickey D's Drivethrough and they still expect free Fries and change to boot. You take down your listings for a few days to chill and next thing you know there's global panic and then you have to defend yourself on Forums cause now your being called a Scammer for taking a break?

Come on people..

I know and I wrote that he's one of the most respected vendors here.  I trust that if he says he shipped it on 6/26, he shipped it on 6/26, and I trust that he shipped it properly, hence my comment about him being highly respected.  I have the utmost respect for vicodin, and I would order from him again in an instant.  I've placed dozens of orders to the tune of several thousand $ with highly respected vendors, including Vicodin, and you, RxKing.  You're both awesome.

A Priority package passing its 6th postal delivery day is just as unusual, for me, as one of our most respected sellers making a mistake.  Which leaves me to wonder what is going on.  But you're right, all I can do is wait, and more than likely USPS will get it here.  I should not have made the the mistake of voicing a concern here and opening the window to be berated. 

Yes, I made the mistake of reading threads by folks more paranoid than myself, and it rubbed off on me to some degree.  When you're waiting in the dark, you can only imagine.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST~!
according to pablo escobar here, the us postal inspection service has never seized a domestic pack

https://postalinspectors.uspis.gov/radDocs/pubs/AnnualReport.pdf - "In FY 2011, U.S. Postal Inspectors, along with their law enforcement partners, arrested 1,327 suspects for drug trafficking via the mail. Ultimately, they seized from the mail 31,000 pounds of illegal narcotics and more than $14.6 million in drug trafficking proceeds."

oh. ::)


I am glad you know how to use google. Now realize that 90% of the shipments "seized" by US Postal inspectors are not from USA to USA. They come from over seas. On top of that most of that is weed,heroin,coke. Most is weed. I read somewhere 98% of the weight is weed.

The amount of Rx seized by the USPS is so little it would not even register. Again there are many factors and ANYTHING can happen. Like getting struck by lighting. Though I would say you never will. In fact there is a better chance you get struck by lighting then Vicodin's package not arriving. ;) But I am glad you jumped in this thread to tell me a vendor, that packages do get seized by the USPS. If you didn't send me that link I would have though no packages are ever seized.

But I will tell you something that has never ever happened.....

NO ONE FROM SR HAS EVER BEEN IN TROUBLE BECAUSE OF SR. THAT MEANS VENDOR OR BUYER.

Yet there has been over a 1000 post that say there has. And all of them are just lies. :)

Yes it will happen some day. Just like someone this year will die from lightning.

There are so many threads on here started by paranoid people it is sick. 99% of them(the threads) are all about nothing. There package arrives, the vendor is not in trouble ect.

Just facts.

My only point.. was that in general ...buyers need to relax with this "is everything all right, I have not heard from a vendor in 19 hours" "is everything o.k, I ordered my package yesterday and it's not here yet" I also was trying to say that instead of messaging in the forum, use your brain. Look at the vendors page for updates. Realize if he has no listings it's not because the police seized his account.

Another thing..... It is far more likely that a vendor get's IRL trouble like a DUI or something and is away for a while then he ever getting in trouble for SR. And out of all the vendors and over a year I would bet that has happened less then 5 times.

I know and I wrote that he's one of the most respected vendors here.  I trust that if he says he shipped it on 6/26, he shipped it on 6/26, and I trust that he shipped it properly, hence my comment about him being highly respected.  I have the utmost respect for vicodin, and I would order from him again in an instant.  I've placed dozens of orders to the tune of several thousand $ with highly respected vendors, including Vicodin, and you, RxKing.  You're both awesome.

Yes, I made the mistake of reading threads by folks more paranoid than myself, and it rubbed off on me to some degree.  When you're waiting in the dark, you can only imagine.




Your last paragraph is exactly what I was talking about. I know it sucks when you are used to getting priority packages in 2-3 days and it is almost a week and it is not there. But that happens. I would say 1% of the time. But 100% of the time they show up. And yes a mistake can be made like a bad zip or something. I agree. I just don't think any of that needs to be posted in here.I understand your concern, but like YOU said....You have ordered 1000's of dollars on here with zero problems. I would expect the same..no problems. Just a longer then normal wait:)

And thanks for the nice words ;D

I am also only talking about Rx and not weed dealers or coke dealers or H dealers. And only USA to USA.

So I take a little offense at the flaming email from the king, though I think it was directed more at the other poster than me, I personally was not panicking. I was worried about Vic and indeed my mind jumped to horrible possibilities but I also was fairly confident all was well and he was just on a weekend away. I haven't known him long but I never knew him to not respond within 24 hours. When he took his listings down I was even more worried that maybe one of my nightmare scenarios could have occurred. When he emailed saying "taking a couple of days off probably back Tuesday" or something like that I immediately posted here to alleviate any concern I may have caused. No packages are late for me but I didn't have any "in transit". I had some pending but canceled them since Vic said he couldn't ship in the timeframe. So I apologize if I caused a stir by posting here. I tried to keep my messages tame and respectful.

But before we go flaming each other further, let's look from a buyer's POV for a moment. Remember that a) people are spending their money, and b) if they're ordering opiates/opioids they may be drug sick. Granted it isn't any vendors responsibility to manage their flow of meds, but it is at least understandable why people would panic. That said I have great respect for the sellers and the risk they take. I hope they are rewarded well for their risk.

As for orders getting seized, that's the last thing I would have expected and said nothing of the sort.

In my mind everything is working as it should. If I had one piece of constructive criticism it would be that maybe Vic should have put up a "going away for a few days" message. But that said he's still tops in my book!

Why would you say you take a little offense... then 4 words later say I was probably not addressing you? Your right I was not.

I am now.

I really don't give a fuck if I did offend you. What I said is just that. As is what you said. People need to stop being such pussies on here. You come on a forum and state your opinion and your going to get one back. It is just that. No big deal.

Also your right you did post a reply that you got a hold of him, that's why I said this thread should be locked. I also believe this thread should never happen. Like you said, you had no orders. You jumped to a "Horrible possibilities" because your favorite vendor didn't get back to you within 24hr's though he has nothing listed???

Makes sense.

Lets me address this gem from you......

"But before we go flaming each other further, let's look from a buyer's POV for a moment. Remember that a) people are spending their money, and b) if they're ordering opiates/opioids they may be drug sick. Granted it isn't any vendors responsibility to manage their flow of meds, but it is at least understandable why people would panic. That said I have great respect for the sellers and the risk they take. I hope they are rewarded well for their risk."

I would hardly call it a flame. You weren't spending any money. He had no listing's up. We know your spending money. Drugsick??? So we as vendors should take that into account and make sure we do everything so you are not sick? FUCK OFF. We have way more important issues then your drugsick.

And like you said:

 "but it is at least understandable why people would panic"

Yea it is..it is also wrong. I don't give a shit what your going through. We are not doctors. We are drug dealers selling you drugs.

Though a lot of us vendors will bend over backwards and help you in anyway we can, the truth is we are only here to make money. You send any vendor a message on here and tell them your drugsick and if they even respond it will be with a "who gives a fuck".

I never said anything about you saying orders were seized. You don't need to tell me what you wrote or didn't. I can read it.


"In my mind everything is working as it should. If I had one piece of constructive criticism it would be that maybe Vic should have put up a "going away for a few days" message. But that said he's still tops in my book!"

I agree he could have done that. But by taking his listings down that is exactly what he said.

I understand your whole message. And had you read mine you would never have to have sent your last one. Like you said, most of my message was not even about you. We already know your "drugsick", we can read your first message, that is why I posted.  ;)

You basically agree with me 100% in your last message.

I'm done.

The dude runs like a clock, he deserves a break. And he's decent enough to pull his listings so nobody gets coins tied up while he's gone.

Here's a constructive idea (IMHO) when folks like me are waiting on something that is taking longer than it should: check the USPS Mail Service Updates page: http://about.usps.com/news/service-alerts/welcome.htm

There is a separate page for international.

Currently...

United States of America
The United States Postal Service reports that due to the recent storms that passed through the east coast between June 29 and June 30, there are several facilities experiencing power outages, downed trees, and downed power lines. Power has been restored at all major plants in the affected areas and these plants are now in recovery mode. Some post office stations remain without power. The following are Capital District sites that continue to be impacted by the storm.
Washington DC 200 & Southern, MD 207 Area - (15 Delivery units remain without power)
Northern VA 220 & Dulles VA 201 Area - (8 Delivery units remain without power)
Baltimore, MD 212 - (18 Delivery units remain without power)
Richmond, VA 230 - (41 Delivery units remain without power)
A full list of additional impacts for the states of New Jersey, Ohio, Virginia and West Virginia, can be found posted under "Current Updates" on this Mail Service Update webpage.

Peace RxKing. Your points are taken. I appreciate all that you sellers do! I have great respect for Vic and appreciate that he took the time to reply to me while taking some time off. It's all good. Let's stick together people. Together we can keep a good thing going! Thanks for all the replies. I often learn the most from the people who disagree with me the most violently!

Post by: FenderGuitarMan on July 15, 2012, 10:18 am
I sent him a PM but he didn't answer yet. Sent him one the first time his disappeared and he answered he was taking a brief break. Then I saw his listing show up but by the next day they were gone again. I have discovered some cool other sellers in his absence. I hope he's just off enjoying the summer somewhere. I'd love to see him back here. It's interesting how absent any other information the mind can jump to its worst fears. At the end of the day I hope he comes back here but even more important is that he's alright and enjoying whatever he's doing now.
