All of these details are going to be in the yahoo group buy forum. All I have are estimates at the moment. Sorry I just don't need people repeating numbers that are irrelevant based on an estimate made before anyone even joined weeks ago. If this means you not joining that is fine with me. I'm open to everyone who has bought in but I am not discussing the volume or anything here with people who are not even apart of the buy.
This buy almost didn't happen because everyone went nuts over a first quote without including shipping and analysis fees. It's just not worth disclosing anything at this point to anyone but my group buyers because then I will have to answer another 3 pages of out of context witch burning attempts. Sorry bro.
I was only posting to try and reassure current/prospective members of the buy, but it appears I've made a bad impression. Please stop trying to portray me as some random troll. I paid and have been a member of the group for quite some time. Regardless, It's absurd to be asking for payment when you can't provide basic information about the group buy. The yahoo group is a wasteland. You're claims of 'everyone going nuts' and 'witch burning attempts' are more than a little melodramatic. My requests for you to clarify valid concerns were met by nothing but strawmen.
You posted to the Yahoo group calling me a:You condescendingly PM me with accusations of "harassing the shit out of [you]"and rebuke me for "calling [you] out for figures on a public forum"...3 post longecity trolls trying to destroy interest in the group buy who have no intentions of even joining the buy.
Your unprofessional and condescending remarks aren't helping garner confidence when people are trusting you with significant amounts of their money.
I acknowledge that you have refunded my payment. Your offer to save me a gram once it arrives, if i still want it, is kind, although I won't be taking you up on it.
I have been a buyer in several group buys. The synthesis just started several days ago and you are a) posting tons of questions on the open forum I specifically requested be moved to the closed forum
b) demanding all lab information which N does not want to share because this is the lab he uses and he is brokering the deal c) demanding counts of everything and costs of everything when I do not have these answers yet d) displaying no patience to wait for me to calculate these totals (guess what I have a life outside of here like everyone else)
Those are just some of my grievances. And yes I told you you were harassing the shit out of me because it has been several days just since I knew I'd have enough to start the synthesis and you are already demanding figures for EVERYTHING. Here I am busy marketing this, updating the members, logging payments, and trying to project the rest of the costs, and I have you basically blowing up the thread with the above.
I offered to just refund you since you claimed you could not wait 2 weeks for this information while I process it all. To me that is extreme immaturity. It is very clear to me that you either can't afford to be in this buy or do not have the patience to be in it. Either way, I am happy that you are no longer in the buy. I tried to be nice and even offer to save you a gram when it came but clearly you are just out to destroy my reputation and this group buy - so for the sake of me and the other members it is a done deal and I am reneging my offer to save you a sample. I have been apart of several group buys and not once did I hound the shit out of the organizer who already had tons on their plate within the first week. I have no problem giving the details I just told you I would not have them for another 2 weeks. The synthesis is going to take 2 months. The last thing I want is to have to answer your every out of context remark or claim that I am not doing my job.
So thank you for verifying you are truly a troll after I attempted to be nice to you by sharing every PM and trying to destroy my character with no provocation from me. Glad to see you not in the buy. You are exactly the type of person I have thanked myself for entirely avoiding in every business deal I have ever been in. The funny thing is that this isn't even a business deal. This is basically a charity event sponsored by my time. And you could care less obviously. I hate to break it to you dude but your best attempt to stop this group buy by trying to tarnish my character in this thread has come too late. We have the majority of the funds and the synthesis has already started. You are a little late in your effort.
I told you specifically over PM (which of course you didn't show everyone) that none of this was personal. You have now just made it personal. I'm sure just about everyone else on here will think twice about bringing you into any group buy after reading this. Of course you will change your username and persist. Best of luck to you and your 4 post account. The funny thing is you are only in for one gram. I have people in here for 4 grams who have been completely pleasant to deal with through PMs.
