Just got brutally ripped off [5]

Just went out for a smoke with a couple frients and decided we wanted to buy some more herb for the stash.

Waited about an hour for a new dealer we hadn't used to drive up to our arranged meeting spot.

When he pulled up he took my money and said he'd be 5 minutes then drove off with his crew. I'm slightly embarrassed that I was too shy and too dopey to ask for my money back (I had already handed it over). Probably shouldn't have been baked before buying another bag.

When I tried to call this new dealer back about 20 minutes later and he said he'd given the herb to his mate. His mate said he had the number of another kid with the herb who then denied he was the right person. They sent me through a sequence of texting and calling about 5 different phones, none of which were answered.

The thing I don't understand is why this dealer would swindle a potentially regular customer.

Feel especially bad for my frients who came out for what they hoped to be an evening of me treating them but instead involved into a long cold night of waiting around :(

I always refused to give money over until I saw a product. I usually deal with larger amounts now so I make sure I atleast know someone who knows this person well enough to know where they live... I'd take it as a lesson learned...or if you're feeling ambitious find out where he lives and get all your friends with baseball bats and show up to his house or smash his car windows... although I would recommend the first option for 20 bucks

Also, the problem with the second option is that unless it's the first time you have ever met them, and they have no idea where you live, they will know exactly who did it and probably do the same shit to you. It will be an endless cycle until one side decides they are fine being the one who got fucked. If you are going to pursue the revenge option, be patient as hell. Wait weeks, even a month. If you are still angry and want to break their car windows or something, then they will most likely have no idea it was you. By then, they probably fucked over another few people and you are out of their mind. Obviously I'm not advocating violence though.

Basically what I'm saying not advocating violence but revenge is pretty sweet sometimes of it works out in your favor. ..but yes very good call wait alittle bit if you absolutely have to have revenge.

First of all, that sucks man, I hope it somehow gets resolved for you.

That being said, don't ever hand over money to someone if they aren't handing you the weed at that time. It doesn't matter how close you are with them. If they don't have the weed on them, then they aren't ready to make the transaction. If "the weed is at my friends house and I'll just roll there and get it", then they should have made that stop first. What if you give them the money, and they don't intend to rip you off, but they themselves get ripped off? The point is, if they are going to meet you later to give you the weed, then there is no reason they can't just get the money then.
