Don't be fooled by the number ratings of many of the vendors in particular Larghetto. If you search through his history here you will find that as a vendor he has a very dubious past. I'm relatively new here (about 3 months and 43 clean transactions).
About two months ago, I ordered some codeine from him. I searched through the romour mill and found some mixed reviews about him. I sent a pm and of course he promised me the moon, sun and stars. And fe'd as he seems to demand for every order.
Anyway hesitatingly I placed my order. After two months it has not arrived. We've talked via pm and her still claims that I am trying to rip himoff. It was me that got ripped off.
Here's his latest pm to me " Blackmailed us for the last time, we're not giving you anything now I'm afraid." I made a few comments on this thread about him here previously.
My response to him was "I didn't blackmail you. You ripped me off. Going to the community forum is the the ONLY recourse that fe'rs have. You'll be hearing more. Unless it does arrive in which case I will eat my words and aplogize up and down"
So don't buy from Larghetto, there's a good chance of losing your money like I did.
Reminder, don't trust those vendor satisfaction numbers

I had a very similar incident with an order of pills.
I just steer clear of said ship now.

Just wanted everyone to know that Larghetto has been a untrusted and disliked figure on Silk Road for a very long time. He has never answered to accusations of using DEA pictures on his listings, and also providing customer addresses to clearnet vendors in unencrypted form.
After several disputes / confrontations with multiple members, he has been banned from Silk Road's IRC channel. He is only the second individual ever to be banned, if that is any indication of how truly loathed he is.
Avoid at all costs.

Lol yet another thread about him....

So I know that this might not be popular, BUT:
I've only had one experience with him. I ordered the liquid xanax, waited four days, and when it was still marked "processing" I emailed him & asked what was up.
He canceled my order, and said that his guy told him it had shipped but couldn't prove it, and that even though he was canceling I *might* get it anyway. While I haven't gotten it, he was very polite, and I spent part of the refunded money on the 2.5g bag of ketamine, which was marked "in transit" yesterday. I really hope it comes through & is awesome.
I'm not saying y'all'rn't rightfully pissed off, but he was nice to me.
Also I just realized there's a word with three apostrophes.

jonesycat, the fact that his "guy" was some shady site on clearnet that he might or might not have experience using, doesn't bother you? it's only a matter of time before he sends SR buyers' information directly to an LE honeypot if he hasn't already.
but, eh, i guess that's no biggie.

Point taken.
But where on the clearnet is he going to find a guy selling liquid xanax within the domestic USA?

I'd like to hear more about this DEA stuff. What happened with that.

If that's true then why is he still a vendor? Doesn't that violate vendor policies?
-
most of his sales and ALL of the good feedback comes from his 1g ketamine he sells from uk when he get his kilo from his sketchy Indian dropshopper , all the bad feedback comes from his bulk rip off scams, shut the fucker down, another crap seller ruining SR's solid reputation.

Hmmm.... I just hope my package arrives soon and safely and not 2 months down the road. It was supposed to be shipped aprx. 13 days ago, but It just got sent 2 days ago apparently. He's been nothing but polite, but he has apparently told me of the same degree of issues and delayed shipping problems stated above. He's stayed in pretty constant communication. I had read about him through the forums and it seemed as if the majority of issues with him had been back in the end of 2011. I went ahead and took a leap of faith because of his stats, now im just waiting to see how the pony goes if you all catch my drift. Im not quite ready to bash at the guy because he did kinda TRY and do me a favor initially, but I cant say this has been a smooth process at all by any means.
"I'd like to hear more about this DEA stuff. What happened with that."
"nah i think you'd rather hear about the "providing customer addresses to clearnet vendors in unencrypted form.""
..... Um, say what in regards to the above quotes?
Thank goodness I get my items shipped to completely different drug-free house-holds everytime incase some form of raid event were to occur, but still, not a comforting thought lingering in the back of my head now. Does anyone have some form of confirmation about him providing our addresses over clearnet? This, if valid, is completely unacceptable and I think something that needs to be addressed amongst anyone having placed a prior order(s). Safety should always be concern #1 for both vendors and buyers, followed by quality and most importantly reputation.
Its not the end of the world that my package was "sent"(Still hoping it actually was) late, but I would have some extreme concerns with the vendor if his safety nature is so minimal, that our addresses (or my drug-free family homes) are being aggregated and traded out via clearweb. I hope this is addressed by someone, whether to validate the allegations or to defend his reputation. Im still very 50/50 on how my transaction has gone thus far (Mainly since it still hasnt arrived), but id undoubtedly like to generate a more precise opinion.

If he is doing that sort of naughty shit I dunno why people bother.

Do my eyes deceive me!? Another Larg thread :D

There has actually been quite a few of late Googs, at least 3 if I recollect correctly. I am a bit surprised he has been banned yet because last thread I saw about him actually had a screen shot of a convo basically saying he didn't give a fuck he'd mugged someone off.

The damage done to the community by a poor quality vendor runs deep, and reverberates mistrust for a long time to come.
Doing the right thing is not hard. Taking this amazing SR into a death spiral of rip off artists would be crying shame.
He talked a good game, up until convincing me to FE. I've done too many trades to be so foolish. Yet, i was....and did....and have unfortunately learned a hard lesson and adopted a new agenda in my time on the forums on SR.
