Ok, let me clear up just a few things.
First and foremost, i would never, ever retaliate on anyone for any reason. Especially snitch on somebody. I've been burned for thousands of dollars from just one customer, let alone all total. I erased their personal info and moved on. Chalked it up as breakage. I'm a very level headed and even tempered guy.
As far as drinking and guns and the such. I technically don't own any firearms nor are there any at my house or anywhere near where i do my business. As for drinking, i probably get drunk once every 3 or 4 months. Far from a gun toting alcoholic out causing a ruckus. I don't use illicit drugs and i don't smoke marijuana. Tried marijuana a little while back and hated it.
As for the things in the original post where op said, basically "these are the things we know about xkawn/stanford" some of them aren't even true.
As for opsec, all you've dug up was some pretty basic stuff. Stuff most rattle off in casual conversation. And like i said, some of it not even true.
Not sure what i did to piss original poster off. I've done my best to make sure everyone I've dealt with was more than happy. I've even did my best to take care of customers who, for whatever reason, weren't treated right and said they didn't want it and were never coming back and slammed me on the board. Didn't expect anything and never held a grudge.
Now on the ordering semi finished product and the question of do i synthesize my own product. This happened once. I placed an order and some of the stuff came in semi finished. I didn't ask for that and on my very next purchase i made it clear i wanted raw powder, not semi finished. Maybe
@purplepandalabs can come in here and verify this.
I posted in panda's thread as xkawn because i had a delay issue and i didn't feel like it would be best if i use SP handle as to not promote another source. I hade a complaint, i did mention my experiences in the context of a conversation and i also tried to help a few people out. Keep in mind, I've been on this board for a very long time and have been doing my best to help people out. Man, the number of people I've helped brewing just behind the scenes. I would like to think this doesn't sound like a scammer or a schemer. I think some forget sources, including myself, are human. We're painted as drug dealers who don't give a shit about their customers. Couldn't be further from the truth. I've also helped some on this board that had fallen on hard times. Most of the time anonymously.
My numerous threads. One was just for a sale, one was as a private source and then once when i opened to the public. Wish i could have just changed the title of the thread. I contemplated doing another when i went private again, but i decided not to because of the shipping delays and complaints i thought it would be wrong to do so. Those complaints deserve to be in the thread.
Me posting as xkawn while sourcing as SP. As far as i know i haven't violated any board rules. I did my best to be as honorable as possible and not let the two corrupt eachother, but there were times i felt i needed to use xkawn. Here is one example. I needed some raws fast because my pack was taking forever to get. I was running low on a product so i ordered from a domestic raw source. I didn't want to be connected to that source as SP so i ordered from a xkawn email. I had an issue with my pack. It was shorted and it looked like it was intentional. That domestic source appeared to be burning people (including me) and other customers were confiding in me and i posted in sources thread as xkawn. Thats just one example.
Members info. No way to really prove this, but i don't keep it. I now pay someone to do my emails and he is told to erase the chain when transaction is completely done. I've had members say "do you remember this or do you remember that). Answers always no because info is not kept. Not one time has anyone mentioned why am i keeping their emails so there's no proof of it.
Long post and I'm not sure what else to say. I'm sure there's something i forgot and i apologize in advance. A few things in my defense, if i may. I've never had a bad test, never had a contamination, never a accusation that i burned anyone, etc. I've replaced or refunded pretty much anyone that has complained about anything including pip. Who does that?
I'm asking, honestly asking, anyone here have a complaint about a transaction that it wasn't evident that i tried my best to make you happy? I'm not perfect, but i try to make sure everyone is happy. My biggest let down was when i took on way too many orders and things got out of control. I took care of everybody in the end and did my best to make them happy. And I'm trying to rectify the problem by going private.
So, if anyone that has ordered from me has had a complaint, please step forward. I hold no grudge. All the years I've been brewing and sourcing and the years that I've been here sourcing i think i would have been run off if i had done bad at my job. I will be opening back up when I'm ready and i guess if you feel like I'm a security risk or bad at what i do or even a bad guy then blow up my thread. Not much i can do about it and i don't think it will be a reflection of the job I've done as SP.
So, I'm sorry for what i did to OP. Wish he would have contacted me. I could have rectified it. I'm not gonna accuse him of being another source or anything. I'll just assume i didn't live up to the standard i expected of myself. Thanks for hearing me out and I'm not gonna speak much more on it. I learned my lesson when tgi and that other source came in making things up about me and i tried to defend myself. It just doesn't look good.
Once again, no ill will to OP.
Thank you.
