I got this email from Slovenia -
"App. 5 weeks ago our police arrested group of people who have been sending large
quantities of extasy tabs from Slovenia to USA in same paded envelopes as I send
my gear. Obviously our post service was alerted and couple of weeks before and
after the arest they (in collaboration with our customs)opened around 1/3 of my
pkgs and sent them "opened" to USA where your customs had easy job.
That's only my opinion, but feedback from my customers shows that app. 1/3 of
all pkgs sent in mentioned period weren't delivered.The problem is that it takes
some time before I receive the feedback from my clients.I realised that
something went wrong after 3 or 4 weeks.At the moment everything is back to
normal, b/c last sent pkgs are arriving without any problems.
I understand that you're disappointed b/c you paid for the gear which you've
never received, on the other hand I did my job and sent out your gear.I didn't
scamm you.You must understand that buying gear on the internet is sometimes
risky and that risk you have to accept.
I apolgise for all the troubles but trust me that I have much more to lose that
you. I'm doing this for living and not for my own pleasure.All I can do at the
moment is offering you discount on your next order."
My take is the guy didn’t do his job if 1/3 of his shit got snagged.
I am not just paying for the gear, I am paying him to ship it in a way that will get it to me.
This is my first order with him, now I am expected to be stupid enough to order more at a discount?
That is bull shit, and if he doesn’t make good on my $400 then he is no better then a scammer and I will make sure others know who he is.
