M&PS lied about having mags he didn’t have (Têvǎș ǎddǐêš) and was sending ppl random shit like ŠŘ in its place, was verbally abusive, did not practice proper OPSEC, and teetered on the edge of doxxing his clients. I saw first hand the very questionable practice of asking customers to return a wrongly sent items in order to get the actual items that were ordered and paid for (ŠR was sent to me instead of Têvǎș). I didn’t trust that the A’s would ever make it to me, so I opted to keep the ŠR. Plus…
A) that’s horrendous OPSEC to have multiple customers sh1pp1ng shit back to a vendor, and
B) what vendor even asks for a customer to sh1p something back when it was their own fault for the mix up? If a vendor gets something wrong the onus is on them to get the correct item to their customer.
Not only that, but “Pablo” was very clearly verbally abusive and a selective scammer. He reminded me almost to a T of a now blacklisted vendor that went by the name “Phx” at the time (almost exactly a year ago). Members who’ve been around awhile can probably back me up on my assumption.
Since then, it’s proven to be best practice to nip abusive, lying and sketchy vendors in the bud before they have a chance to cause more harm. I appreciate that they’re not welcome on this forum..
You still have access to “Pablo’s” email. If you want to risk it with him because of one successful order, that’s your prerogative. But I disagree with having any sort of “at your own risk” section as that is just setting bad precedent and imo rewarding bad behavior by vendors when they should instead be correctly banned from doing business here on this forum.
