Chill Out!!! Before you grab for the rope, be damn sure of what you're doing. I'm referring to the Brazilian connection. Let's take a look at the facts as they now stand, alright? It seems that four members on this board have yet to receive their gear after what is considered a reasonable amount of time. Then, there are an equal number of people who are 2 for 2 or better with this source. That's it. That's all of it. Now, tell me, is that enough to string a guy up or worse, make him out to be a scammer? Watch 'em closely - yes, but label him a scammer? Come on, folks. Let's not jump the gun. When you consider the volume this guy deals in on a daily basis, postal services and customs, just to name a few of the obstacles that factor in on the sending and receiving ends of the equation, I'd give the guy the benefit of the doubt. Yeah, I've lost money on gear before and Hell Yes! - it hurts, but hey, who ever said this thing was a sure deal? Cuz, if you're under that illusion, you'll be better off cashing in your chips and shopping at the local GNC. My rule of thumb, never invest more than you can stand to lose. Why don't we just sit back and let this soap opera play itself out. Then if necessary, I'll buy the rope.     | ||

Well, lets see...I sent him my money, he says he sent the shit, I dont have the shit or a customs letter. Is that enough to label him a scammer? Well what else do I need bro? I mean short of having to physically remove this guys cock from my ass, I think that all the other pieces are in place to say that hes FUCKIN' people right! And there is NO WAY IN HELL that he's getting any benefit of the doubt from me if I never see shit bro! Why does he deserve that from ME? I could give two rats nuts about how many other scores of guys he's come through for man! It aint those guys money that I sent that Brazilian Mofo! | ||

We all have sad stories about deals that went awray. But, you probably don't want to hear that shit, right? Still, I'm gonna tell it, cuz it might make a difference to someone else. See, I once sent $1120.USD to a source in Spain, yeah, that's right, the now infamous PG guys. Well, they said they received my money and Fed.Ex confirmed it. They also said that my gear was in the mail and, like you, I waited and waited, email'd 'em and still waited, but, guess what - no gear and no papers from customs. Now, here's the clincher, I live in a country where gear is legal, so custom's a non-issue. So, what became of my gear? Guess it was lost in the mail and I don't live in a 3rd world nation- more like number 3 economically. Moral of this story? SHIT HAPPENS! But, we worked it out, I paid 50% and they re-shipped my gear. Got it in 7 days. Now, I could have screamed SCAMMERS! and paid another source for the gear I lost and end up paying double. At least this way, I didn't lose the farm. Am I pissed about it? HELL YES!!! But, let's face it, we're dealing in the black market- need I say more? It's a crap shoot. Roll or stroll- it's your call. We all take the same risks. If you get burned, don't cry about it. Consider it a public service to the rest of us. One less mine in the field to be stepped on. Not flaming you, just spreading the gospel. Many of us have already been down that road. Welcome to the club. | ||

If gear is legal in your country why the hell would you use mail order. It would be just like Mexico. | ||

The land of the rising sun- the people who brought ya Godzilla and Toyotas. Personal use of just about any drug not listed on its banned pharmaceuticals list are legal if you don't sell it. Why not buy from a pharmacy here? For one thing there's no demand, so they don't stock it. But, there's a catch to all of this, you see, it's illegal for anyone other than a physician to administer an injection- exceptions like diabetes aside. The twist, you can buy syringes and needles in hardware stores, in the lab equipment section, or order the stuff directly from the manufacturers- no questions asked. It's what the Japanese like to refer to as the gray area. Interesting counrty, huh? | ||

alpha..read some of the other posts about this guy...its a lot more than 4 people that are still waiting...RiodDog and I, plus several others are still awaiting orders. And he's been sending out nasty emails to all of us...threating us that if we dont stop saying "bullshit" about him, he wont help us....is that the mark of a GOOD SOURCE...I think not. | ||

Hey guys, I order from him regularly. It seems to take about 16 or so days from the day he sends it for me to get it. I live in TX, so anyone north of me will be a little longer. My minimum order to him has been $700 for a bunch of zambone winnie. I have been happy with him, and never had a problem. The only things bad I hear about him are the delivery times. | ||

Roidog, I like your new found civility. Actually, I 've formed a much better opinion of you. Like I said before, I empathize with you and all those still in limbo about there orders. You got a bad break. But, in the world of buisness, and personal relationships-not preaching, but you'll find that people, for the most part, will go the extra mile for someone they like. It ain't always easy, to smile when you feel you've been wronged, but being nice does have its advantages; especially, when you're dealing with people who are not from your part of the world. A lot of things get lost in verbiage, but the being understanding part seems to be universal. Hope I'm not giving away my profession. sbaset, I have re-visited the post, but I'm still unconvinced. Cautious-yes; ready to buy rope, 'fraid not. |
