Hey, looking for some some advice from my elder peers with more experience than I. I believe that I got scammed, yea, I know, happens to everybody sometime. I want to be fair. Life happens, people get busy. It has been 10 days and I know that they recieved from me what they wanted. Ive used them before so Im a bit suprised. Do I wait a bit longer or do I blow them up on every site that Im a member of with all their identifying information. Ive emailed them 4 times, with the 4th and possible vacation time Im a bit tentative to act harshly. Some guidance from my elder peers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
Personally, I would wait a little bit longer. I understand being frustrated. I don't know if your source has a 3 to 5 day guarantee after payment is received or not. When I used Roxi, he had a guaranteed 3 to 5 day shipping. I ordered from him a few times and never had a problem. I was going to extend a cycle and made an order (had about 2 weeks of my current gear left) and after around 10 days never got it. I actually ended up ordering from my current source. Roxi did respond to my emails. He said that customs got the package. I eventually got it after about a month. It was frustrating but things happen. I am not putting Roxi down by the way. It was very uncharacteristic for him. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again. So maybe you haven't got scammed. Unless they got as many orders as they could and then went cold turkey, if you have used them before maybe there is a good explanation. I would be irritated though if they was not responding to my emails. Maybe just wait it out a little longer. Who is your source if you don't mind me asking?

Depends on the source a lot, if its a big time operator they usually have somebody looking after correspondence at all times so there is no excuse for not answering your inquiries.
10 days for anything international is probably just wishful thinking, domestic maybe....... Still does not explain the lack of response though.
Tell us who it is if its an open source, one of us might be able to give you some insight, if you don't want to then my advice would be to not start slagging anybody until you are 100% sure you've been fucked over.
 
Hey, I recieved an email from my source and they explained that his ugl burned "to the ground with all my stock". He has sent me an additional email indicating that he is going to 2x my order once they are up and rolling again. Im thinking that 2 emails shows sincereity on they're part and wanting to keep his customers. I hoping that I am just not niave about this, or is this a ploy that has been used by other scammers? At this point I am glad that I did not out him on the boards. If anyone thinks differently, give a shout.

Again, without knowing who it is its a very hard thing to speculate about. If its someone with a long history of happy customers then it might be legit, but if its some guy that sent you an e-mail addy then you are probably fucked.
There are some world class greasebags out there though, I've seen guys suddenly "die" after taking in a ton of orders, go AWOL, you name it and someone has done it.
I'd be pretty skeptical if I were you, at the very least I'd probably want my money returned...... I mean WTF is it to him to take the time to send it back right?
The other big factor I'd consider is whether or not the source is still taking orders....... That would be a huge warning sign if he is.
