+ 1 Twice is to many

One thing I have learned on this site is that there has been a number of very good con-artist sources. how do you spot a con-artist source? well a dead giveaway is EXCUSES!
Sure there is gonna be problems, we all understand that, but it seems like every thread ive been on over the years where the source gots more then one excuse they end up getting kicked off eroids, either by MODs/ADMIN or users and labeled scam.
Think about that, even if your pack is showing up fine and you got no complaints, if someone elses isnt you might be next. Dont be played the fool!
Twice is to many excuses! Move on

Noid, I dunno if that is the best example. Some people live in countries where it is way more difficult to get shit through customs than it is here. And, even here, all zip codes as destinations and customs operations as points of entry do not treat things the same. I was SHOCKED when a customs agent explained that to me, I was so naive. The likelihood of a package coming in one port and going to one set of zips is x times more likely to get seized than another package coming in through a different port and going to another set of zips.
how many excuses does the source give when that happens?
0 Excuses. Not their problem I didn't get my gear.
do they have a no-reship policy?
Yes. For most of the world. I, however, live in a re-ship country. But, if it doesn't make it on the second try, that's it. But, again, no excuses are given by the source, why should they?
exactly, so thats my point. if you got a source that is giving people more then one excuse as to why they didnt get their pack its to many.
AAaah. Now I understand.
I just haven't gotten burned by my source YET.
Yea I would have to agree on that 110%
Aint that the truth...since NY 9/11 and Homeland Security threats on the hourly/daily
Yea its simply called 'pay attention to details'...maybe its cuz of my criminal background, but I can root out cons/manipulation in a blink of an eye. Look...think...look again...think some more...PM some members(friends), ask those questions and then ask some more before pulling that trigger. Money is a valuable commodity to me these days...IDK about everyone else but I struggle enough in this fuct up economy of ours
Or my other big red flag is when another source pops in to say "Don't worry". That is when you should start worrying..
How true! It's a sure sign you won't be hearing from the original source for some time. If they do show back up, that's when the excuses start up.
