I sent a European source money which they promptly cashed on May 2. They said they would provide a tracking number as soon as they sent the package. I have received nothing and they will not answer my emails. I know it was not wise to send them money without emailing the mod's here first, but they were on the "good" list here and were given 5 stars on roid.com. Any suggestions? IP: Logged |

It wont hurt to still Email a mod at this point,even if you got fucked at least you will know,and that will be that. But lets say a Mod says they are cool, it is not writen in stone that they will never turn scammer. Good luck & hope you didn't get fucked. What did you order and how much did it cost? IP: Logged |

If they are not returning your e-mails, then contact a few vets and mods and see if they have any insight. If you still have no answers or e-mails, then it is time. ------------------ [This message has been edited by 2Thick (edited June 05, 2000).] IP: Logged |

Oh! Then I can call Arnie a scammer? I don't think so. Wait at least 2 months after your order was supposed to be there, before you claim anyone is a scammer. I would never ruin someones REP over a complication. Think long and hard before you ruin someones rep. After 2 months you should receive either a letter, or gear>>>>>period>>>>>. IP: Logged |

While I agree they should probably given the benefit of the doubt, the part that irks me is that they won't answer my emails. They responded to emails within hours, until they received my money. I was told I would be given a tracking number as well. I have received nothing. IP: Logged |

This is just my opinion Bro. But I wouldn't want an order with a tracking #. That would make it easy for you to get busted. If you have a tracking # you have to sign for the shipment the majority of the time. If you do that and it's a bust---YOUR SCREWED! IP: Logged |

Off the time alone i wouldn't call scammer but if the guy isn't answering emails etc and they've had no contact at all, then most likely he's been scammed.  IP: Logged |

It only takes 5days to NY area and 10days to CA when I send (from a EC-country). You only get a trackingnr when a private carrier is used, UPS and DHL and you have to sigb for it. You should do a better checkup before wiring $. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Arnie is no scammer. There is a 3th option. Your package can get stolen at the post office. Guys who know their stuff and want a free cycle working at the post office where the goodies are sent from or where the goodies arrive can easily steel your package. In fact you can never shout "scammer" alone. But if more guys have the same problem then it's (maybe) a different story. Jeff ------------------ IP: Logged |

My last email to the source I requested that I would not have to sign. Even if I do I have a work-around for that as well. The site is very legit looking and these guys were in the "legit" list in the Mail Order 2000 report from this sight. I am a on a mailing list from roid.com as well and they gave them 5 stars. They seemed very legit. Was I scammed? I think so. Do I still have some hope, yeah, it springs eternal everytime I hear the UPS truck pull up the street. I have emailed E2 with the sight, email me and I will tell you who they are if your concerned. IP: Logged |

If your emails aren't being retuerned, then set up a fake email acount and do the same thing you did when you ordered the first time,(you know ask the usual questions) & then if your fake order emails are being answered then you know you got scammed. You got nothing to loose? IP: Logged |
