I think this is a fake or scam.

On the website it says Midrand Johannesbrg, and if its a sapo tracking number it will only go active once they pick up and scanned it.

The dhl tracking number from the east very suspect, why would someone in Joburg send something from japan
 
Call your bank. Have them try and reverse the charge. Tell them it was a fraudulent transaction. I really think you've waited long enough. Two days is too much already, unless the seller tells you they have a turnaround time.
 
Tie him to a chair and make him vape flea market liqua on a fake ce4
 
Did you not do your homework on the company before forking out 4.5k?

I should've done more research before buying but I thought he is a trusted vendor as he is on this forum. And his prices is super cheap. Atleast I can warn other people now

Lets get him... I made this for special occasions.

How come you always have to be fancy.

I'm going in old school.

That has been a concern of mine for a while now. Seen many fly by nights and I don't like it either that someone can be labeled a certified retailer simply by asking. The new payment system should help curb that.

I made a direct payment to his FNB account. He said 3-5 business days, been two weeks now

Report him anyway to the banks as well,, not just SAPS. Let the banks know that account is being used for fraudulent transactions.

Must look at a vendors activity on the forum. If it's exceptionally low then it's also risky. This does sound like a horrible situation I really hope he hasn't sped off with your cash.. if he has however, he will be removed of this forum and we can move this post to a bad deals section on the forum to help others avoid this company

Sounds like a "drop shipping" arrangement to me, I :censored: HATE drop shippers! Expect to pay customs fees and expect to pay the courier also. It's shit like this that puts vaping in a bad light! Come on @Vapes, let's get this sorted out.
 
Dude man~ that is just terrible!

I was also thinking of buying oversea, but was thinking of buying from Ebay, and then after I saw Vapking's website, I just got my stuff yesterday from Vapeking. Not intend to advertise here, I just like to buy stuff when I can visit a physical shop. More secure that way.

Sorry to hear that, hope it all goes well !
 
I can't speak for other retailers but I pay more than that for 30ml Hangsen.

As a side note I popped onto the website as well - the name rang a bell, as it turns out I contacted them ages ago when I first started considering going into the reseller business. Never did get a response to my mail.... seems I dodged a big bullet there. :eek:

100% with you on that. I think it's what's happening.
 
Just wondering if any other forum members have actually ordered and received anything from this guy?
 
As a retailer who has worked her butt off to establish an online business - jumping through ridiculous hoops and cost to build a reputable business - this type of thing honestly pi$$es me off.
It takes one idjit like this to give the rest of us a bad rep.

Screw the pitchfork - guns.... we need BIG frigging guns!
