Ok I'm in a pickle 

just tried to buy something off our lovely Jim at starlite and used money gram as requested. 

These were my issues:

i choose cash on pick up for him as didn't understand what "pick up at any agent" meant from Jim.

then the price of the product was in $ but what's that in Philippine ££? Or is it already Philippine $? So if cost is $100 what currency is that?

Then it's cash pick up or transfer and I didn't know which. Then there's 4 more options if u click transfer.

in terms of safety- money gram wants bank details, address full name etc! Then my bank refused transaction then I tried again and bank asked me to call.

so I'm no nearer to purchasing. Going to shop to do it but what do I say? Do I give legit personal details my end? 

Please help it's a mind field

Jim should have explained all this to you, it's USD, and of course they want all your details to send to your brother in law, it's to "protect" you from being scammed. It's completely normal to be nervous doing this first time incidentally.

Oh thanks for that. 

I did ask for usd as Jim did state but the conversion on the conversion website came up €11 dollars short at post office when doing money gram. I didn't want to change everything as was nervous and wanted to get straight out shop.

i clicked on cash pick up for Jim as didn't know what "pick up from all agents" meant. 

i tried to do bank online instead but bank wouldn't let me. 

I found the whole system very complex and nerve racking. There needs to be more information on here about how to use mg safely and what to actually say to the shop when they question who it's going too. 

The dealings with starlite were very positive though and prompt and helpful so I can't fault them. 

Thanks

There is LOTS of information on MG and payment methods in the payments section. Including, what to say, the process etc. Remember when you joined the forum amd you were encouraged to read? These are the type of things you should be researching. The search function is excellent @Requiem. Fear not!

 
I know this is an old thread but if you are reading this and the vendor takes bitcoin, go for it. Compared to MG, WU & others, Bitcoin is easy peezy and no hassles.

 
i just went thru the payment hassle with WU and MG with no luck... Then tried  Sharemoney with success. Payment was put on hold until DL pic was sent and phone call.

Did they ask for the receivers verifiable phone number?  I got that far with SM... send DL and went over all their questions but once they asked for phone number request killed the transaction for me.

 
Every vendor accepting SM has provided phone # to receiver in past experience. If they don’t , they need to get with the program.

  2. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  3. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  5. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  6. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  8. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  9. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  10. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  11. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
  12. R @ Royboy99: Maybe it’s the admixture of my South American dna that works so well with it ? 🤷
  13. R @ Royboy99: It’s all evident in memory recall, my emails, meetings, … people invest everything they have in a nootropic that provides this… desperately searching without success and it’s right there right under their nose (no pun) … stigmatized by society and outlawed.
  14. R @ Royboy99: Now I’m not foolish or delusional to think that it made Edison who he was … it just allowed him to Edison to Edison to a greater degree … and I see it doing that for me and others who use it as a productive tool and not a substance of abuse.. you can look at this data with the level of patents filed by Edison during that time … comparable to Barry bonds or McGuire breaking records while they were subtly enhanced
  15. R @ Royboy99: One could argue that we would not have motion pictures if it wasn’t for ❄️
  16. R @ Royboy99: I also take month long breaks and replace with Ritalin for receptor recovery
  17. R @ Royboy99: And while it may sound insane and completely destructive … small microdoses of ❄️ has really transformed me. I did extensive research on its use by Edison, the pope at the time, and many others who got great benefit from a wine concoction called vin Mariani … this subtle enhancement changed the world and as long its used with a high degree of control, it’s amazing. you may think I’m crazy … but I’m just being as transparent as I can
  18. R @ Royboy99: I’ve grown to realize that my time is finite and Im only getting older… I’m back to relying on small PRN doses of FDA trialed BZDs and it’s made tremendous improvements to my quality of life. I just need to get out there more and meet someone new, it’s the only piece that’s missing since I’ve managed to get it together
  19. R @ Royboy99: @LatsDoodis: thanks brother … I’ve spent months trying to put myself in uncomfortable places to grow stronger. Hours of research, thousands on supplements, therapy etc …
  20. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: @Royboy99 You’re not yet lost. Cut them losses and do what you don’t want to do. Take the boring, shameful, nerve racking way out. It’s the only road back to balance. When you’re ready, you’ll do it. Hit me up if you want support quitting. This ain’t worth your life!
