Apparently MISSIT took the admin's lack of action last time they were scamming as a license to do so again. I've been waiting since the 17th for an order that should have taken 2 to 3 days to get here max due to how close I live to where this vendor ships from. To back up my case I present these facts:
1) order sat in processing stage until right before I would have been able to cancel the order. The vendor then moved it to "in transit" to prevent the order cancelation.
2) after waiting 3 days longer than the packages should have taken to arrive, I contacted the vendor and was told the packages didn't actually go out the 20th and could have gone out on the 24th, 25th, or 26th. If you can't give a straight answer about when something went out then that's a huge red flag. I gave the vendor the benefit of the doubt as they had been stating they were extremely busy on their profile and all previous orders had been filled very quickly. All previous orders had been larger also so didn't think it was worth the vendor's time to scam on a smallish order.
3) vendor's profile is full of bullshit. Go read the excuses about how busy the vendor claims to be. I sure as hell don't see enough feedback being posted to match the amount of business vendor claims they are doing. Either no one has been getting their shit or vendor is making up fairy tales and excuses. The bulk of the feedback is digital goods and early finalizations that will probably never get what they paid for. Have not see any of these early finalizations changing their feedback to reflect actual receipt of their packages.
4) There have been several complaints from people who ordered over two weeks ago and have not received anything after finalizing early for the "priority shipping" deal advertised on the vendor's profile.
This vendor was warned to get their act together before when they fell off. The admin needs to step up to the plate and get rid of this scammer once and for all like he threatened to before. Every person who gets scammed by this prick is another customer that may not spend more money on SR due to the impression the admin doesn't do enough to get rid of scammers even in the face of overwhelming evidence. This vendor has had chance after chance after chance to stand up and be legit but has decided to just keep pulling the same crap repeatedly. It's time for them to go.
-
I placed a small order about 3 weeks ago, havent heard shit
-
That's been the general way things seem to have been going with this vendor lately. I read through the feedback and have not seen any of the early finalizations reporting they got their stuff and several have complained in these forums about it. The admin needs to step up and put an end to this vendor's ability to rip off SR consumers. It not only takes money out of SR's pocket when people get ripped off and give up shopping here because of being scammed their first time trying to buy. That's money that should be going in the pockets of reliable vendors instead, and in the long run, would be more profitable for SR as good experiences with vendors usually lead to consistent or larger orders moving forward.
It's time for missit to go. The account should have been banned the first time they started mass scamming, but instead they were given another chance to be legit due to some sob story about being sick. Well that same sob story is posted back on the vendors profile yet again and people are once again being ripped off. Enough is enough.
-
can't comment on actual products, but I placed an order with missit for btc and didn't receive a message or some kind of update on the status of my order for, I believe, 3 days where as BTCpal messaged me the night of my order when his hard drive died that he would fill my order as soon as he gets coin. thankfully I was able to cancel the order and get coin from BTCpal.
just throwing my 2 cents in on my short experience. not saying missit is a bad vendor as this was my first experience with him, but I wouldn't do business with again purely based off the rather poor communication.
-
Yeah that's another aspect of this I've noticed. The communication is fine when you don't finalize early, even if all you hear back is bullshit excuses, but if you finalize early or do a btc transaction you'll be lucky to ever hear from them again according to posts I've read concerning it.
-
Yeah this vendor is a bit of a bummer. I made a small order 14 days ago, and didn't finalize early. It was marked in transit 10 days ago and finally arrived today, so clearly it was shipped much later than that. I also don't like getting white powder that isn't vac-sealed, that freaks me out a bit.
-
If the vendor didn't bother vac sealing loose powder, I'd hate to even imagine how the stuff is being stored before it goes out. Moisture can really degrade certain chemicals in powder form. I'd also like to point out something of a safety issue as well. If someone was trying to order benzos from this vendor, and ran out before they got their order because they were expecting it in a reasonable amount of time, it could very well send them into seizures.
I guess if there is a bright side to this story, it's that this experience made me find my own source of etizolam and I now have a few hundred of them sitting on my desk. I'd like to point out I ordered them 5 days after I placed the order with missit and they got here today from overseas so there's just no excuse for me having not gotten shit from missit in that same time.
-
I've been waiting 16 days for an order, but I have ordered from Missit before many times now..Not sure what the deal is, but Missit hasn't been seen in 2 days anyhow..
-
I've had successful transactions with MISSIT in the past also, but as you know, people are only as good as their last deal, and this one's been fucked up. It's funny you should mention the vendor not being on in two days also. Quoted straight from vendor's profile :
DAILY UPDATE:
1-27-12:
Relisted our items (limited items for now), we will do inventory and relist anything that hasnt been relisted.
Ive cleared our inbox down to about 20 PMS YAAAAAYYY!
And NO orders should be late, if your are youve been contacted to see if you want them canceled or sent!
If you have an order and its been a day or two since you ordered, we consider you as "On track" since your order hasnt been delayed or confirmed!
We are back in shape, and by Monday morning when mail rolls in, im sure everyone will see the hard work we put in !!!!
Thanks for all of your understanding messages, and there has been 0 complaints, and that helps alot with our stress level and ability to fly through this hangup we had!"
Today's Monday and I still see no signs of people getting their orders and MISSIT is m.i.a. As I said before, it's time for them to go.
-
Well what do you know... I check the mail and the package from MISSIT was there.
Sucks that it took 17 days, I won't be ordering from them in future.
Hope it works out for you guys
-
Sound's like Missit has been sampling too much of her or his own product. From statement made on his/or her own profile sounds like Missit got into some legal trouble and got a DUI. Missit hasn't logged into his/her account in 2 days. Prolly got another DUI. I had an order from two weeks ago. Was in "processing" for 4 days. Then I was able to cancel it. However, I just received my order I cancelled two weeks ago. hmmm :-X. I was trying exchange a MP for the last two days. No contact whatsoever and shows that she hasn't been seen for two days. Missit was pretty reliable for a little while. But, Prolly doing up all the profits or got in legal trouble.
-
I placed an $11 order for etilozam last week and Missit emailed me saying "Please finalize order so we can ship", I was pretty sketched out by it because I mean who requires finalization for an $11 domestic order.
Good thing I only ordered $11 worth. Guess I'll buy some etilozam from someone else.

Think you might have miss read the profile. I was under the impression MISSIT was the one hit by a drunk driver. At this point I take anything on that profile to be about as much truth as coke that's been stepped on a hundred times.

Foxy this situation happened to me only more than 2 weeks ago... I did finalize, $11 whatever, and the communication has been pretty bad. I was surprised as hell when it was in my box today. Hope the same happens for you (all)
-
it sucks to see people having problems with him. my transactions were fast and smooth, I'd like to try again but these posts are worrying.
-
I was just about to place a fairly large order of etizolam from him. It was great procut.
Time, took i dunno how many days but its international, ppl who want their pacakages in 3 days and it's not there 4 are babies looking for their presents while meanwhile being twisted up in the addiction of wanting those presents.
I'm semi-concerned now though cuz its an order value I can't swallow being scammed.
He never mentioned weirdly this time anything about pre-finalization, and I would never intend to do so for a purchase like this (or any actually either). So perhap's that's why he didn't bring it up. Otherwise, missit, I will not pre-finalize our custom order, period.
If anyone knows other CHEAP tableted etiz vendors can you PM me please?
Don't fucking link them here, this is a thread to deal with whatever ppls isues with missit is, not to try and make some sales on your own account.
-
I don't think anyone in the thread so far is crying about stuff that's a few days late. Tomorrow makes it two weeks I've been waiting personally and I only live two days post away from the vendor. And it's not just late packages, but several people in the forums have been complaining for weeks now that they aren't receiving anything they early finalize for. When even the people in escrow aren't getting their stuff there's an obvious problem.

I've been there and done that. Gotta read between the lines. Haven't seen or hear for 4 day's make not mentions she was in the hospital. where would one be for 3~4 Days ?
......This is just my opinion....may be wrong.
-
my experience with missit has been great since ive never placed an order. ive been watching missit since her? public reviews were down at 84%. this percentage came up into the mid 90's yet my skepticism remained. the forums tell me enough to stay clear. i believe people use fake feedback from false accounts.
-
It would be nice if we could see a vendors feedback rating with the option to remove certain things such as digital goods and early finalizations so we could get a better true feedback representation. Take away both of those and I bet missit's rating would be even lower than the 80s you saw before.

Ok perhaps I should have clarified cuz I was making a joke referencing to Americans who do get domestic shipping quickly.
Being international i'm not only used to it but am not bothered in the least when it takes a very long time to get here. I said 3 days vs. 4 days as a joke (I guess no one got it haha) for domestic US.
I would not be worried about my product until after the TWENTY DAY (20 days) mark. I live in Canada btw and that 20 day's includes if it came from just the US. When a border is involved it can be tied up until who the fuck knows when.
It bothers me and thats why im bitching and joking about it with ppl complaining about not getting their packages on time.
If you have a drug addiction that requires you complain about not getting your product (unless you need it for some special event type thing) to vendors, yet you are shopping for your drug addiction requirement on THE INTERNET you're an IDIOT !!! If you need a fix you go down the road, you don't rely on SR vendors to get your packages the very next day or you'll give the vendor a 1/5 cuz your strung out on H or something and dont understand how stupid you are for RELYING on the internet for your addiction ! Packages come when they come !! Drug dealers ... well they're usually pretty localized.
-
Missit hasn't logged on for 3 days now.
-
Yeah funny how missit's been a ghost since the day before the vendor's profile claimed packages would be arriving and still hasn't logged on since. I believe we're witnessing the endgame for that account hopefully. I just hate waiting for the admin to give me back my money now when it's rather apparent most of us waiting on orders aren't going to get what we paid for. In light of the previous issues with this vendor I don't think they deserve the benefit of the doubt in this case once all the evidence is added up.
Also like to point out the vendor added boxes of 1000 etizolam to their profile the day before they went ghost. I suspect someone's gonna be out a few $k in the end from the timing lol
-
I think this is a case of drug dealing 101: Don't get high on your own supply.

Hope it turns out OK for everyone involved

things like this worry me. someone gets into some law trouble. then he/her goes on hiatus. now i have seen these next part in the past on other boards, he comes back with a fury, trying to make deals left and right making like 100 posts a day almost like their on meth. if this should happen DO NOT deal with him even if he owes you money. if he wants to make it right let him. but please for your own sakes don't make threats against him. only time will tell if this asshole comes back through.

There shouldn't be an option of coming back for this vendor honestly. They own another vendor almost a grand for months now and have a metric shit ton of non deliveries recently, especially for people who fell for the finalize early for priority shipping bullshit. The admin gave this vendor another chance once already. Enough is enough.
-
Missit's items are delisted now - but the account still says it hasn't been logged into in 3 days. Does SR delist automatically?
Also a few new reviews up - people seem to have gotten their orders, albeit slowly.
-
I made a large order from him a month ago and still nothng.. I'm pretty pissed off.

The amount of people who have received nothing seems to be quite large. I haven't seen any of the early finalizations changing their feedback to reflect having received anything. A few people got stuff like mxe and other small stuff but it seems very few people have gotten their etizolam orders other than small stuff and samples. The vendor's profile excuses also make claims about sales numbers that aren't even close to matching the number of feedbacks being left leading me to believe the whole "i'm sooooooooo busy" excuse was just absolute crap. The vendor also turned into a ghost the day before they claimed stuff was supposed to arrive for a lot of people. I really think the situation would have been handled more quickly if so many people did not finalize early for "free priority shipping" and the admin actually had to deal with the true number of unresolved orders the vendor has outstanding. It looks to me like the account got frozen yet again so hopefully this is a sign the ban hammer is about to fall. Just hope the admin speeds up the resolution process for those of us who didn't finalize early like lemmings if they do indeed get banned.

I bought etizolam (missit had the best prices) and finalized early, so I'm in the same boat. Hopefully we're not out our cash.

I knew missit when he was dealing RC's on an open website. He's been banned from numerous sites for selective-scamming, which seems like what he's doing now, with some people saying he's been legit, and others who have been waiting for weeks...
I'm not here to finger someone and give up their identity, but I know that the human being who is "missit" is pretty much a bullshitting theif.

I don't understand why a seller would go through months of establishing a reputation, just to throw it away to scam some people at the end. Perhaps the scammer gains $1-2k or so - but the value of a seller account at SR with lots of good feedback is worth at least that.

i was going to order from him.......god so many freaking thiefs

Just as in everyone's local drug game, some people only hustle to fund their own addictions. Sometimes those addiction's cause people to trade their long term sustainability for short term binge funding.

I finalized early on an $12 order of Etizolam..its been 16 days, Missit is MIA for 3 days. Hmmm. I have bought a decent amount from him, but when I kept asking for a DCN for this last order I finalized early for I never got one, and each time I was asked to re-send my addy, which I did encrypted of course. I was asked twice though, in a 3 day window for my addy after sending it already. Something is up, and I don't like it. Also, if it helps anyone this is a 2 person account. Husband/Wife actually, so odds are at least one of them could get on and do something about all this.

I was going to do bitcoins with missit but asked him to set to "in transit" (as you should too) before I would send the MP code (so you can leave feedback if they screw you). My order was cancelled 2 days later with not 1 word from the vendor.
-
It took 3 weeks to get my priority order and it was missing 50 etizolam tabs....she did me good in the past
-
Damnit, he was selling clonazepam at a price I can actually afford (and is the only benzo that treats my medical crap) and now 4 day's processing, this thread pretty clearly shows he's gone but fuck now i have no where to get clonazepam for reasonable price.
Nothing against PV either :D they just don't ship to Canada.
Fuck, I almost want to leave it in processing, see if he ships (NOT FINALIZE,OMG NO) and maybe he'll ship out of compassion (if they arrive in my hand and are the correct product I will definitely finalize and release his money to him), cuz I actually bought these to treat fucking grrrr god damn anxiety fuck grr missit !!!!!!!!!
But now that means I got $200 tied up in a processing order, that ultimately will still not look 'good' on my buyer's profile. It's just money scammers, you are fucking us up in real life medically over money.
You were good too Missit, good product.
If anyone knows a source of 2mg clonazepam that're $1.75 MAX ea in bulk (rather not say # in public) can you send me a PM? Sorry for hijacking like this, i'm just pissed cuz now I got a month of mother fucking anxiety ahead of me for which the other benzos are only, meh at best.
Why Missit!

2-1-12:
Should be catching up pretty well with the influx of orders!
We are still a bit backed up, but we have a good inventory thats we just updated, and answering all of your PMs tonight and into the morning!
Ill be on here all evening.
Took our Tuesday break as we said we would start doing.
We got a lot out on Monday. Tried to get on SR a few times, but something is up with my desktop and isnt letting me access SR on there so Im stuck with my slow laptop.
As I always ask, kindly, be patient, read our updates, and please be kind in return and communication and orders can flow quickly.
I will be taking down our Moneypak option for now, we have a few of them to fulfill, and we dont want you all to make a purchase we cant cover. (Before we were allowing the (up to) the full 4 days to have your BTC covered, we will not do this anymore, we want SPEED, so unless we can fill BTC exchanges within 24 hours, we will not have the listing listed)
Got a new item also that we will be posting tonight.... 4-MEC !!!
We appreciate everyone who's patient with us when dealing with us and appreciate everyone utmost support!
I appreciate the PMs saying you hope I get well soon, but please refrain from sending "friendly" PMs while we are in "Busy Mode"
1-27-12:
Relisted our items (limited items for now), we will do inventory and relist anything that hasnt been relisted.
-
my 2btc is that missit is only one person... think of how hard it is, even with tor's amazingly fast speeds, it would be to keep up with messaging people that dont just leave it at one message... and to do this with hundreds of people... while trying to safely package your goodies, along with these hundred other people... it would be unbearable... ever work at a store? even having to open one of those plastic grocery bags becomes a hassle when there's a line... and aside from any personal problems... making sure you get the right stuff to the right person would be a blast... say you order methylone, and you get your baggy weighing out and snort 150+ mg and reallize it taste funny when it drip... OMG 2CE... lol youll prolly never be the same... chill out... im waiting... yes i worry... but if i ever had one smart idea... it was dont piss off a vendor... even if they rip you off... they know where you live lol... it scares me to death... i mean my heart pounds when im updating shipping price in cart lol... but its the price we pay... thanks for reading :)
-

Bro, spend an extra $70 or so a year and get yourself a PO box, you should be doing this anyway even if you weren't afraid of the vendors having your address. If it (illegal drugs) comes to your house, and you accept it, they will have grounds for a search warrant, which can lead to a fuck load of other problems. If you get alot of orders frequently, look into 3rd party private mailboxes in addition to your PO box, and keep switching it up so if just incase one gets compromised you still have a back up(s).
Channel that paranoia and use it for your own benefit.
Remember, just cause you think they're out to get you, doesn't mean there not...
-
For the record, Missit is back and is making the situation right, as I'm sure the rest of you have noticed by now.
-
missit needs to PM.
Im tired of his list of reasons he cant deliver orders on time.
Bad computer.
Car Wreck.
Bad label maker.
Wait a few more days....
Care to add to the list anyone?
I'll be PMing missit and Silkroad tonight.
See who responds faster.
:)

Ordered on the 19th and still nothing :(
-
Missit is definitely, absoultely, without question a scammer, liar, and thief. The fucker stole $500 moneypak from me. I'm another victim--don't let yourself be one! DON'T ORDER ANYTHING FROM MISSIT, EVER.

Maybe in your mind but this is referred to as "hearsay". So gather up that evidence if you want anyone to take your claims seriously.

Missit ripped me off as well. The court of SR has convened and by popular opinion Missit is infact a scammer that should be removed from SR IMMEDIATELY.
-
My order was place 19 days ago. I don't believe Missit even sent it out. He is not responding to my messages, he is ignoring them.
He also told me to send BTC directly into his SR account, and I have a transcript of this message. This is clearly an out of escrow deal, and Missit is lying when he says he doesn't do out of escrow.
-
EVERYONE who's been ripped off by Missit, like said above: CHANGE YOUR RATING for Missit!
Add my vote to the kick missit ballot. Still ripped off, still not hearing back from missit.
-
I see a lot of Missit's Finalize Early's are for a product no longer listed - was it a very cheap or free listing they were using to pad their rating back up using shill accounts?
-
Still nothing. bump
-
bump
-
I finalized early and got scammed as well.
Can we make a separate thread on how to go to your account, and change feedback so that Missit's rating goes below 90 and even further down like it should? I already did but I think if we had a thread and the community actually focused on bringing Missit down we really could. Most people are probably just moping and haven't even changed the 5/5.
-
bump
-
I created a collective thread. It will be easier to bump and more organized than 3 separate threads:
http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=11765.0
-
i told him id leave a 5 but tell about my bad experience however i will change to a 1 until i hear from him... bright side is ive been scammed and know what to look for from now on... thanks missit
-
I totally agree with you guys.
Missit needs to go.
Hes been banned from numerous other forums and shit, and its time admins take notice and do something about it.
-
i placed an order with him a week ago id be surprised if i didnt get scammed as well, i just feel glad it was a small order
-
Still no PM response, still no product (ordered Jan 17).
-
If someone as egregiously corrupt and dishonest as Missit is allowed to stay a member of SR, there will be ever more unhappy and disillusioned victims on these boards. Is there some action we as non-admins can take to protect others from Missit's predations? Can we put up a page on the main SR site that warns others?

Yes, do not finalize early. Not only is it an unnecessary risk for the buyer it encourages such rip-off behavior. So when a seller with high ranks demands it, Vortex for example, don't do it, because even if they're legit or mostly legit (even a legit seller can screw over a customer who finalized early if the seller makes a mistake and doesn't realize it / thinks the buyer is trying to scam them) it's encouraging early finalization which encourages seller fraud.
