Just saying I've always got a reply in 24h, but this is my first time ordering online though.
First time I've heard about selective scamming.
You're new to all this. Many are. Meso has always had a large # of new guys making up its active membership. Its great. New guys are who these sources are after. They know money is burning a hole in their pockets. They want gear and want it now.
They also know that if they can get that 1st order from a new guy they are gonna have them for the foreseeable future. The new guy most likely is going to be cautious coming out of the gate. The new guy gets that first "Test" order out of the way and then the next order will be bigger. Maybe a few friends want in.
Then, like my guy, you place a 1,700 Euro order thinking all will be well...and my guy is out his $$ without even a decent story or explanation.
I saw where you placed your first order. I read your posts, AnabolicFreak. Meso is a different kind of board. On a board where the source has to pay to play he, in most circumstances, has moderator controls over his thread. He can edit and delete posts as he sees fit. My posts would be up briefly before the source deletes it. He'd call it "cleaning up his thread". We call it hiding the truth.
Meso doesn't allow that kind of stuff. We get to see the source exposed for what he is. A few can handle the onslaught of orders they'll get if they make it out of the first few weeks of Q&A and if he satisfies those vetting him.
Most sources get overwhelmed and they aren't ready for all the business that can come there way. Many will take as many orders as come in whether or not they can fill the orders hoping they can get more product to fill orders. Some have raw powders and start brewing like mad. In EuPharmaqo's case, they need to purchase product and have it delivered etc.
The source that stops taking orders and concentrates on filling the orders he's already taken usually has the best chance at survival. Too many things can happen if he keeps taking orders when he isn't able to fill them or the orders he already has in hand. Then they have to make up stories...lie. Fill new orders when existing ones stay unfilled with angry customers wanting to know what's going on?
This source is either as green as some of our newest members or he's just a thief. I'd like to think he's just inexperienced and things got out of hand. A little honesty goes a long way. This guy believes he has already too far along to change his story now. He'd have us believe this is all just business as usual and that he's seen it all. Hang in there. Don't be impatient. You all aren't impatient. You've been more than patient. This is not the way business should be conducted. All the stories about moving etc...are just stories to give them time to come up with a solution.
When it comes to re-sellers, the problem is usually cash flow and having the product in stock that he needs to fill orders. He may have been out of product and was waiting for an order. Maybe the order was seized? They they have to wait for a reship. Maybe the shipper only offers 50% re-ship. If the source is using clients money they've taken in to pay for orders and something like this happens its a problem. Then he has to have a sale without product to ship to get the cash to pay for that seized shipment.
It could be any # of things. Chances are they aren't as this source says it is. This isn't good business.
