Title: So I got the blotter, but nothing on it????
Post by: supernova9 on October 21, 2011, 08:25 pm
This doesn't make a lot of sense to me.  I finalized a transaction with a SR vendor who has been around a few months it appears.  I'm not going to say who it was yet because I'm looking to hear what he has to say once SR is back up and running.  He was very responsive to all of my questions.  I bought 10 lsd hits.  They were supposed to be at my hotel when I arrived, but they weren't.  So I emailed him and he said he was worried about sending them to the hotel before I got there because he'd had a problem with that situation in the past.  He said he'd ship them that day (Thursday) and they would be there within 1 day (within the Netherlands).  The next day I got a message from him saying he forgot to mail them but they were going out that day.  Again, he was very friendly and responsive to my questions.  Further, he said he'd mail another 5 hits for free just in case the 10 had been lost/intercepted.  So I expected I'd get something on Saturday, but nothing arrived.  However, on Monday I got the package with a 10 strip.  And on Tuesday I got the 5 freebies.

Tuesday I took 1/2 hit from the 10 strip at 3pm.  One hour later I took another 1/2 hit.  A half hour later I had a slight tingle under the skin that I've now chalked up to my imagination because over the course of the following 5 hours I at 9 more hits and got nothing from them other than a little diarrhea, which probably was the result of being so worked up and pissed.  I've subsequently taken the other 5 just to see if anything would happen, and nothing.

So, my question is this - why the hell would someone go through the trouble of sending blank blotter hits?  That's stupid.  They were all vacuum sealed and really nicely packaged for delivery.  It was an extremely impressive method for shipping.

Like I said, I want to give this guy an opportunity to respond before I put his name up.  He's been here a while and the reviews I read seemed to be very positive.  But maybe he's making his own reviews?  It just doesn't make sense that he'd go through the hassle of mailing out blank hits.....

Calling the vendor out will get a much stronger reaction time to the issue.

Albert Hoffman on a bike.  similar to the ones at the following link - http://blotterart.com/alberthofmannbikeride1943.aspx 
I don't think they said 1943 on them though.

I haven't had a chance to discuss it with the vendor.  That's why I didn't want to say his name yet.  I haven't been around long.  Anyhow, I guess I will just say so no one else buys this stuff from him.  got them from freedompeople

 I just got 5 hits from him in the mail today.  Have yet to try it out though.  I never finalized early either.  I don't see why anyone would bother sending blank hits in the mail though, unless they were doing it unknowingly.   Especially when the packaging was perfect and the shipping was extremely fast too.

This is very weird. Can anybody else confirm this please.

If it so happens to be the case that all my blotters are "empty" i will re-ship every single order with
a replacement blotter (different kind "Shiva") so no worries.

It was really not my intention to send a bad product out.

I would also like too add that i will ship Shiva's for now until it is clear whether the Hoffman's are legit.

Thank you & sorry for the any inconvenience you might have had Supernova9, but i suspect you just got a few bad ones.

From our discussions I have to believe you didn't intentionally send out empties.  FP, if you have anymore from that batch you should try a piece or give one to someone you trust to give an honest assessment.  I haven't taken acid in years, so it couldn't have been tolerance build up on my part.  Like I said, I ended up eating all 10 that evening and then ate the other 5 that you kindly sent for free.  There was no effect.  I had to shit about 10 times, but I'm guessing that was something else and not the paper.  The delivery was outstanding, so I really think you meant to send product.  Anyhow, I'm back in the US.  The weather was great in Amsterdam.   :)
