I ordered from a "known" source from Anabolex 8 weeks ago. Needless to say, I have not rec'vd. Here's the story, I'd like your input. Sent $400 WU.I was promised a tracking # that I did not get. After the order was 3 weeks late, I pressed the issue, saying that I was worried something was wrong and needed the #.. 2 days later I get a response saying nothing's wrong and that I am being impatient. On the 7th week (by the way I paid $40 for "express" 4-5 day delivery) I asked for him to confirm the date sent. My response was " It was sent when I said it was sent" Couldn't some of these guys send to 70-80% of their orders out to get support of the masses? If you look on the Anabolex board, anyone who complains about a bad source gets flamed, big time. Any ideas from the Vets? Anyone? IP: Logged |

You could very well be right. But there are other problems in general. Scammers don't have to scam everyone to be scammers. IP: Logged |

true, but if the source values his name, which any good source does, he will not want word that he is a scammer flooding all the boards. Case in point "Mr. Slow" IP: Logged |

The problem with boards is that most of the scammer's supporters are in reality the scammer himself. ------------------ http://2thick.elitefitness.com IP: Logged |

If you ordered from a source without refs then you have been scammed If you used a source with refs and there are lots of happy customers than, is possibile that your source to really sent the order, but late and a cheaper mail (maybe by mistake) or hes out of stock and sent late and now wait to arrive to you I dont think that a source can be part time scammer because sources really earn good money; at least half of yo order is their profit- maybe less if they have to resend some stuff in case of seizure. i think that you should wait a little longer 30 working days is maximum then you should try to solve the problem with the source. If is seized can take 3-8 weeks to arrive to you a seizure letter. Is hard to belive that reliable sources need to scam to have profit But who knows...use a source who will tell the truth everytime and is comunicative... I dont like people that dont reply to their email for days.. AHKA IP: Logged |

Well, I agree that the most profit would be made by staying legit. Maybe this guy is going out of biz soon and just doesn't care anymore. A lot of people are having trouble with him it seems. I just like to be told the truth, if there's problems, well, they happen. I can handle most anything if I know what's up. IP: Logged |

Sometimes a source gets scammed by his supplier. If he has no money to continue he might scam some people to get back in business. Jeff ------------------ IP: Logged |
