Title: Questions about first transaction
Post by: BdaY41943 on December 13, 2011, 09:03 pm
So I decided to purchase a hit of acid from paperchasing on saturday.  Everything has gone smoothly, i believe it was shipped yesterday.  However, I have recieved no correspondence from him.  I'm not worried that I'm being scammed because I know he is a respected vendor, I was just expecting a little more communication.  I sent him a message asking if he needed me to finalize early because I'm relatively new, and a few other things and I have gotten no response back.  Thought, Opinions?  I'm trying to do everything right here and I don't want to ruffle any feathers.

I would definitely limit communication as much as possible with a busy vendor and a relatively small, small order.  Some vendors are talkative, but paper is one of the busiest guys on here.  I don't now anyone else based in the US that lists Hash, LSD, MDMA, Coke, Heroin, and who knows what else........those are all very popular items.

My thoughts are to make it as easy as possible for them to do their job as fast as possible......unless there is a problem, which does not sound like the case with you.  I often like to talk and really appreciate a vendor with communication, but you will get better info here in the forum and on SLIC IM.  Good luck with your order.

Hi,
As he doesn't ship to EU I never ordered from Paperchasing but he seems to be one of best vendors on SR. If your order is "in transit" I think you just have to be patient, after all finalize early is not supposed to be the norm so he probably shipped your package.
Did you use PGP to write the message you sent to him ? Some vendors just ignore uncrypted messages, some don't answer if they feel it's not a priority.

No worries; Paperchasing is one of the best and most reliable vendors on SR. You'll get your items with no problem

My experience (I'm a buyer -- not a seller) is that almost all vendors prefer less communication rather than more. You will enhance your rep as an easy, non-pain in the ass buyer if you place your order and thereafter send messages/questions only when there's a true problem. As buyer, I always appreciate it when I get a "heads up, here's where we stand" kind of message from the seller, but have learned not to expect it.

Yea, thats what I figured.  The order is in transit, so I assume that everything should go smoothly.  Like i said, I'm new and I want to do things right, Thank you for the advice and reassurance.

Same thing happened with me bday.  Ordered a hit of acid from Streetpharmacy, never received a response after sending my encrypted message.  After I saw my order was 'in transit' however I finalized early and am expecting no problems.  I'm sure they are just busy and do not see a need for small talk.

Well I hate to be the bearer of bad news but SR Discount Pharmacy is a scammer he scammed me out of hundreds of dollars and shut his page down. So I can honestly tell you not to expect your order from him....I know a real bummer huh...
