Title: MrYellow Poised to make off w/$10,000+++ DO NOT FE
Post by: ak94w on May 30, 2012, 11:29 pm
Guys this is rreminding me of Bronze fidelity suddenly offering apple products then getting up and leaving after everyone finalized early.

here is his page, http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/e57259ef34 all these stupid motherfuckers are about to be out lots of $$$ most likely.

His feedback is chock full of 'FE'

His listings are for many large ticket apple items.

If these guys are stupid enough to finalize early on shit like this, after all that's occurred in the previous months, they deserve to lose their money. I just hope we don't see topic after topic about it.

Did you click on the green ITEM buttons to see what they were FE'ing early for?

Weed.

Lets see if my weed order comes.
One thing though... If you order a $499 iPad (which you can order online or walk into an apple store) from him for $600 and FE.... you deserve to get scammed.  I'm done with ANY vendor that requires FE for anything. never again will I FE. live and learn.
There is an escrow system for a reason.

I seen the vendors page and there are LOTS of VERY tasty Aplle products there from the latest iphones to the all singing and dancing latest laptop or pc at over 1000 BTC!

Iphone 4 at 38.99 BTC! Only the 8 BG but that costs £499 on the Apple store!!!

Anyhow to finalise early on an item like that is stupid!! Its legal! It can be tracked by both parties!

Could be wrong maybe the guy has genuine products.

I would NEVER FE for products that are legal. If the vendoir needs the /btc to pay someone to steall; the boxed stuff or smuggle untaxed from China or wherever then your taking a gamble.

But I will take a free sample off the vendor just to see if all is well!!!

Send an Apple laptop 17 inch screen to A.R Sole, 420 Toke Avenue, TCH Estate, UK.

I got the statue of the lady with the big bazoomas on the front lawn.

So send me a sample dude and we will see if your the real thing!

I'll pay you after it arrives and it it really IS an Apple and not a Chinese copy which are VERY good sometimes!

Its bad enough buying a gram of hash but having to FE to get an Apple Pro 15 inch for 516.57 BTC - wow!

Hope it all works out otherwise we going to have pissed off Apple heads telling us SR is a giant scam.

 ;D

I got burnt with Tony for a gram of yayo.

It taught me one thing.

no matter how friendly and trustworthy ANY vendor may seems here the fact remains this is a buisness. now you tell me would you hand over your money to someone you have never met and start talking about 'trust'. I trust vendors about as far as the last deal. Anyone could turn bad if they end up with maybe a few hundred customers doing FE om some 'must have' deal that seems almost TOO GOOD!

I lost 20 BTC with the Tony Scam. the guy buiult up 3 months of business. He managed to create the illusion he was your buddy. When he had maybe 20- 50,000 BTC in his wallet all FE due to his 'conditions' he likely thought he would pay off the mortgage and get a new car.

It is nice seeing other people ask themselves questions as well.
I was thinking about doing business with him, but the number of Apple products he's listing and the "Apple Shipping" option for delivery makes me think of Bronze Fidelity too much. Plus, I'm overseas so he's really to make only "25%" of the first order in escrow, the following ones (if there were any) would be full in escrow.
Like Bronze Fidelity he's using lotteries to boost his reputation, the only difference being he's selling weed as well but has good feedback for it!

I read this after i FE on my purchase, but it was only my 3rd buy and it was for very large amount plus i won the lottery for the 7g. he said it was sent out today and for some reason i believe him. just hope next time i will be a trusted buyer and only use escrow. will update the same day i get my shit and that will be proof enough

It is definitely a shame that he requires FE what with all those different strains. I don't see why anyone would FE with him considering how many cannabis vendors don't require it.

How old are you? 20 to 50,000 BTC? Funny.

Hey guys, MrYellow here, just wanted to say some things real quick...Fuck you ak94w first of all, you have purchased products from me and received your product, so i don't quite understand why you would be trying to fuck us off if we've done nothing but serve you in your illegal needs. Second of all, All of my customers know we are legit and don't worry about being scammed by us, we have just restocked and will be providing new listings of our strains tonight, we will also be shipping our first load out tonight since we left to restock, so we will have all our DCN's for our customers who have finalized in the past week. We are appalled at how we have been treated as a scammer and what not when all we have done is help people with excellent customer service, product, shipping times. If you don't believe me, read our personal forum on the matter...nothing but raving reviews! We are in the top 6% of sellers on the silkroad PERIOD! So leave us the fuck alone and don't buy from us! We are here to help people with their mediacl marijuana needs, not win a popularity contest or defend my reputation to some punk ass bitch who just can't be happy for someone to run a legit business on here! As for the apple products.... fuck it we will take them all down since ak94w wanted to paint us as a scammer, so all the people around the world that can't get apple products cause they don't have apple in their country, you're fucked cause of some asshole spreading lies and rumors, all of which are hearsay! In closing, we love the silkroad and will never do anything to jeopardize our reputation. We hope you guys believe that but don't really care if you do or not, we'll see who sticks around longer;)


P.S. We will be announcing the 5-24 thru 5-31 lottery winners tonight!!! Thanks for playing guys, and ak94w you are blackballed from our services for this childish move here;)

I checked all the apple listings because it literally takes 2 seconds thanks to the power of tabs. And I don't see anyone has ordered the apple products so I really think this is a false alarm. Most of the FEs are for lotto listings. If what MrYellow says is true then that's a bitch move ak94w, and by the looks of it Mr Yellow is legit.

Harsh thread really. You have no evidence at all and you start a thread/rumor about someone on a scam.

He's in the top 5% and has made over 300 hundred transactions, with plenty of good feedback.

I don't see why you'd perceive this a a blatant scam opportunity...the Apple products aren't unreasonably cheap and so far he has a good record.

Thanks guys, good to know someone has your back on here! I apologize to ak94w for the harsh language i used, but it just pisses us off when we work sooo hard for you guys and someone calls us a scammer! please don't think we are pissed at the community as a whole, just the bad apples who ruin it for others, and by the way we took down all of our iphone listings so no one can accuse/complain about them. Sorry to the people who were messaging me interested in them, if you want to complain about it, complain to ak94w, he's the one to thank for the listings being taken down;) Thanks again guys! Really lifted our spirits hearin you guys defend us like that! Stay Safe Everyone;)

don't see anything wrong with raising questions about some dude who has a shit load of pages of "FE'd" with like 3 "item arrived" mixed in. i would have reported it to sr probably if i caught it, since he's been here 4 months he can do what he wants but it still looks fishy especially with all the apple products. its good to have people looking out for shit like that even if yellow is totally legit i personally want people coming to the forum when they notice someone with shit loads of FE's because thats how we will catch actual  scammers before they run totally rampant.

Agree with this, just showing my confidence in this vendor. :) ...always feel like I have to say this: Always had a great experience so far and HOPE to continue to do so. :) Waiting on 3 grams from Yellow and it should arrive today. If not then something is terribly wrong or s/he did not send out when it was marked in transit. Really big pet peeve of mine when people do that, but to each is own I guess.  ::)

I'm a little freaked. the dcn numbers i got do not come up with anything. if it went out on sat. should something not be showing. i really don't know never used a dcn number before. but its a good amount of money i gave up. and when i do get the package it will feel extra good for knowing it worked out. if not that's going to feel like shit and going to suck. i have a good feeling about this though and know its going to work out and i am gonna get all kinds of different killer buds. whats normal shipping time to Missouri from where ever you are?  i would guess 5 days maybe.

MrYellow, I'm planning to order from you, but with recent talk/fears of a potential scam I'm admittedly a bit hesitant. I still haven't seen anything that makes me sway one way or the other, but something has me confused and it'd be awesome if you could shed some light on this:

There is a new seller (registered 5 days ago) called TheGanjaGuru at http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/04eabd2acc

Is that you as well? He sells different strains, but some of the text is a direct copypaste from your seller page at http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/e57259ef34/10

Example: "If you wish to mix/match with any other buds we offer, don't hesitate to ask, although we ask limiting the requests to 1/2 oz's and higher please. Just tell us in the address box when you place your order :)"

I ordered a couple of grams of weed a few days back - I have full confidence it will turn up. I'm based in the UK so obviously it will take a while, I'll start getting concerned in a couple of weeks. Until then I'm chilled and have faith in MrYellow.

Yeah those two accounts are pretty clearly written by the same person.  As always, don't FE unless you can afford to lose the money if something goes wrong!

I don't know what to say at this point.  I would like to start off with this we have nothing to do with ganjaguru, he messaged us a little bit back and asked if he could use some of the info from our profile page and as a fellow SR user i decided to help this new vendor.  You can learn a lot from asking people with experience questions.  Second, the high end electronics, we have had similar listings for USA MusicMan basses averaging between 1500usd to 4000usd for some time and the apple product seemed like a good thing to try and sell overseas as they seem to be getting raped by apple with there prices, sorry for trying to expand our business.  Last but not least I would like to state that we do not have an unlimited supply of bud on hand, a high influx in orders can drain your supply quick and causes us to make a run to  re-supply, WE ARE NOT TRYING TO SCAM ANYONE, i don't even know where this wacky "conspiracy theory" accusation derived from. I thought smoking bud chilled people out, not spaz them out.(check your bud or check yourself)

Just a group of peeps trying to spread the love with good buds and make some cash too...Gosh.
Thanks to all the fans an loyal customer u guys rock!!

I really want to start ordering some weight with your product MrYellow but I will never again FE. I would figure that after 4 months of lots of sales, you would have made enough to stay stocked. I sell loads locally and I will say that I made enough in just 3 months to buy a 7000 dollar car, 2000 TV, 1800 PC rig, and loads of other goods for less cash than those. With the weight you seem to move, you should have the kind of cash by now to use escrow.

That being said, I don't want to piss anyone off, nor am I trying to claim you are a scammer. I just can't wait til you can do escrow so I can start getting bulk from you instead of locally. I will keep an eye out for when you are doing escrow.

Point taken. It's just weird that in your review thread you were responding to complaints and saying that you might have to go stealth and stop shipping international because you couldn't keep up w/all the orders and that's why mistakes were happening, but at the same time you wanted to expand your business by adding 30 new products or so.  Honestly, I am not vested in the outcome one way or another (I have IRL dank, I don't sell on here, and the Apple store is 5 blocks down the street), just pointing out that people may want to be careful and not work out of escrow if they can't afford to possibly lose their BTC eventually.

Sorry but its not like we are buying the bud as we sell it, we have plenty.  Its just we don't like to release product with having the money first "call us old fashion" but we have been doing this way before you could do this on the internet and that's how the game went,we do work with weight orders if that's what your trying to do and will do a half now half later deal for returning customers. You have to understand we are always looking out for ourselves and don't want to get burned by customers.  I don't see why its a problem our rep speaks for itself as a trusted vendor.  Every order gets shipped:)

I understand but after the tony76 incident, I will never FE again. It is just too easy for someone to ultimately decide that one day they will rip a bunch of people off. Anyway, I am certainly not trying to call you out and when I have a couple grand that I can play with and not worry about, I will most certainly give you a shot.
