I ordered from a new vendor, who apparently is out of product. I received a message from him saying he ran into issues because his friend was in jail but is sending orders out Monday and offered to cancel if I wanted.
Should I be worried? If this friend was "locked up" for selling drugs ... should I cancel and not have this vendor send drugs to my address or am I just being paranoid? It seems really sketchy to me, but I am a paranoid person. I thought I would check for other opinions..
It would be sent priority anyway so it's not like they could do a controlled delivery but still not sure what to think, I don't want my address on a watch list or anything.
Thanks for any clear-headed answers.

Nah dude,the cops wouldn't let him operate if they know he's selling . So he would've got nabbed by now.
If he follows the vendor rules then you have nothing to worry about.
I prefer old time vendors with lots of experience. It's worth the extra cost for reliability.
Saving a few bucks and letting some teenager sell you drugs is always a bad choice.
I have a vendor who's stealth is so damn good , he hides it [PACKAGING DETAILS REMOVED] !! So it just looks like a product you ordered. Totally gets past customs. That extra mile counts [PACKAGING DETAILS REMOVED]

I also tho k too many people are vendors. Not everyone has what it takes. I don't want to be someone's business experiment .

Hey Jedi, I'm not trying to sound like a prick or anything, but I think that its generally bad practice to out vendors specific methods of stealth packaging. Not saying that you told a state secret or anything.. just something to be mindful of on here.
Idk, sorry if I'm being a paranoid asshole :o
As for you H, I'm totally with the jedi on this one.

With him don't worry or don't use a new vendor?
It isn't really the new vendor part that worries me (though there is a tinge of anxiety), I mean I'd rather order from someone I know but the heroin powder scene is pretty much ALL new people (save for 2 and I ordered from one) now so... Not many choices.
I was just worried that his friend would get out of jail on a plea and then possibly have told them about this friend, the SR vendor, who would cop a plea and then the police would investigate SR and take down any addresses this guy has and then talk to those people.. haha At least I'm not just paranoid about drugs it's everything.
Thanks

Both,
Sorry I should have specified, inebriated girlfriend pulled me away ::)

Just my $.02, I'd cancel till this blows over. Pending order means your vendor still has your address. If his situation is not certain, I'd rather not have him holding on to it while shit gets sorted, you know? Should be encrypted, obviously, but you don't know his operation. No established trust as of yet.
That said, I get the observation about limited vendors for your product, something I note whenever people wax poetic about finding ideal vendors. There often aren't any. I'm not saying never. But I'd let him ship more product to other people, first, once he gets re-connected. How well can your vendor trust his friend? You don't know.

guys, please do not post specific details about any vendor's stealth packaging techniques. I'm sure you can understand how this is dangerous to do considering the LE presence in the forums.

One more thing...
Just because someone sends a parcel "priority" doesn't mean LE cannot do a controlled delivery.
They can do it on any parcel, USPS, DHL, UPS, FedEx, it doesn't matter the shipping company or the method of shipping used.
Don't think there is some magic to priority, it's fast, but mail is mail.

Thanks. I ended up not cancelling and I believe I made a mistake, but nothing I can do now.
I got it, but ... me and everyone else pretty much got ripped off.
