Now I'm mad... guess it's a good thing I bought the stuff when the bitcoin value was high, so I only lost about 4-6btc, which was most of what I had... god damn scammers!

Its funny, right after, as in very next day his SECOND time through a " day of deals"  his site is down..

He still hasnt shipped out FROM THE FIRST day of deals..

People..

We have been scammed.. time to realize it


As someone who only two weeks ago was defending BTCdeals, I agree that this pattern is wildly suspicious.  At this point I consider myself scammed.  I did place one successful order, but as pointed out, that must have been one of the early trust building transactions.  My second order, placed just before the first day of deals, still hasn't arrived.

My apologies, to edasvangen in particular.

I hope bitcoindeals.com straight there support staff out.
I mean, those guys promised alot and this can be destroyed by a couple of some serious forum complaints posts.

Still waiting..

No response from 2 emails..



2 months

At this point, I'd rather have my coins back than the useless crap I ordered

I kinda agree with you, but at the same time not, I ordered a wireless logitech mouse and a dvi-d cable that I'll need when I buy a new monitor in a month or so, the rest is just small gadgets like a wireless internet dongle, bluetooth dongle and some other small things, I deffo want the mouse and the cable... I'm to lazy to buy it with real money/sell off bitcoins so I'll hope for the best and see what happens, he better not run off with our bitcoins.

He does answer most of my emails, but it's mostly stuff like, "I'll look up your orders when I get home from work", "I'll check it up later", "I've been sick/been to the hospital over the weekend", no real answers about the orders so far and I never hear back from him the times he said he'd get back to me, I do understand that he's busy, and shit happens, but, one simple answer with a checkup on one single order and perhaps a rough estimate on when he places the order would get me satisfied, and he have failed to deliver that over the last 6 weeks(roughly two months since i placed the orders).

sublimnl, how is it going? shouldn't you be getting out old orders before you start up the website again? Huh

You *clearly* have no idea how his site actually works.  BTCdeals takes your order.  Once payment is confirmed, BTCdeals sends your order info to some factory in China (seriously!) where they drop-ship the item directly to you.  The Chinese shipper likely has thousands of orders in the queue that they go through fulfilling.  Even after it is shipped from China, it still takes quite a while for the item to make it though customs, then travel across the pacific in a freakin' boat!

If you can't be patient, you just shouldn't be ordering from BTCdeals...

I know it takes time, but two months? and I've been in contact with him over mail for about a month trying to get a clear answer on how far along just one product is, most retailers does at least have access to some admin area where they can see if it's been processed/shipped out and so on, I don't care when the other items arrive, but he should be able to check one item shouldn't he? and many drop shipping wholesalers/manufacturers in China/Asia are known to... slack with orders unless they get reminders!

I know he's busy and probably has plenty of orders to process and plenty of whiners wondering when they'll get their items(me included), but that's just who I am Cheesy, sorry about that but, dealing with impatient customers is in my opinion part of the job! Wink

I'll wait another month or so before I start worrying for real, so no need to flame... you know how it is when you're waiting for something fun to arrive and you get impatient.

Two weeks later, I now am of the opinion that BTCdeals is a scam.  My first order went through, the second seems to have been a scam.

It's been 7 weeks now, and all my orders says "Order confirmed" but that's it, nothing is sent, said he was recovering from a visit to the hospital and that he would get back on track asap 18 days ago, I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever see the stuff I ordered..

Thought I would post an update to the forums about some upgrades the site has received recently - besides the obvious day of deals which was a lot of fun Smiley

1) The site now automatically sends out confirmation emails once 5 or more confirmations have been made on a payment. This was one of the biggest complaints - and rightfully so. The confirmation email will now be sent as soon as the confirmations are there (it checks on a 15 minute interval) so in general you should get the confirmation email within an hour.

2) The site now uses a rolling weighted average of the market - so you may see the price fluctuate occasionally from the launch time to the final time. So even when MtGox hiccuped the other day with those two dips to 2.99, the site didn't go ballistic - had the price stayed down, well that's another story.

3) During the checkout process, when you are presented with the bitcoin address to send payment to, you can now click that address ad you will get a QR Code. This was requested by a user a while back, and I finally got around to implementing that.

4) The site has been given a wider layout and slight changes here and there in design (mostly minor - like renaming the top menu buttons, rewriting the about section completely).

5) A new "past deals" section has been added as per requested to show past deals that have elapsed. More updates to come in that area.

6) Just added a side deals bar - this makes sense in the wider layout and allows me to showcase additional deals every day. These will be updated every hour in the very near future, and will sometimes be related to the current deal, or completely unrelated. The deals on the side deals may not be as good of a deal as when they are featured, if they ever are. The featured item will always be the best deal on the site - just something to keep in mind.

More updates to come - and always welcome to hearing other suggestions!
