Did I just get burned by Carolina Extracts?
submitted over 2 years ago by revpurp

I placed an order with these guys on the 19th of October, and I've still yet to get anything more than a receipt. I've called (reaching a conspicuously free Google voice number) and sent emails for the last week to no reply. Things are looking dim as I've got about 10ml of liquid left and I've spent all the money I have for nicotine with this phantom of a company.

If anyone has advice for this situation I would greatly appreciate it. And as far as my review of this company so far, I would have to recommend that you steer clear if you value your time and your money 😮‍💨

Do a charge back immediately. They are not fulfilling orders and haven't been for a long time.

The owner died in a murder-suicide, like another commenter said you should charge back immediately.

Holy shit, I remember reading that article. I didn't know that was the owner of CX

Would definitely appreciate an article for this, I ordered a week before people started posting about orders not being fulfilled. Figured it was just personal life stuff but that’s wild.

Wow. In case anyone has doubts about the murder suicide news reports, you can also look up the tax info. Carolina Xtraction Technoligies Corp. is registered in WYOMING. If you select History, and click the PDF icon next to 2022 Original Annual Report - 07166432 you'll see Brian Curtis Baker (the alleged murderer) listed as the treasurer or fiscal agent.

That took longer to dig up than it should have. This link direct to the doc, may, or may not work: https://wyobiz.wyo.gov/Business/GetImages.aspx?sid=043043107212227134178227247185066117252072063024&stid=121207255159209202156082212102091217249082056121

​

EDIT: Hopefully this will help any of you working on chargebacks. My last order from them was in April. Now I have to decide whether or not to vape it (I probably will anyway).

So I tried to get my money back by disputing the transaction on chime, but they said I couldnt get it back. Is there any article or any proof I can send them in order to get my money back? It's like 45 $ but still, this sucks.

My bank told me to file a dispute and link this thread as evidence.

If you Google "Brian Curtis Baker SC" all you'll get is news articles about his crimes and demise.

Delosi's price is nice but they don't offer 100mg/ml nic salts in PG, only 50/50 or VG. :/

by Mookeye1968over 2 years ago

Yeah I know, I just adjust my recipe Nic input from 100mg VG I have now to 50/50..I have a liter in Vg one in Pg and one in 50/50 just for curiosity sake. The other spots like Heartland or Perfect vape might have the base your looking for plus its a bit cheaper.I have a lot of recipies to adjust but it doesn't take but a second,its just 1 change I have to make within ea of my saved recipes which will change the amounts of Vg n Pg to add but the flav % and Nic strength will stay the same. Not ideal for some but it's for another 3-4 yrs or However long a liter lasts 2 people.Then ill change it again to 100mg Pg when I crack the Pg Nic open.. 👍😊

I don't like nic in VG as I keep my spare stock in the freezer, plus it's thicker and I already hate using my syringes on pure VG which I keep in a dark closet. Going to order some larger gauge luer lock needles next month.

I think Delosi only has VG PG and flavorings, does not carry anything with nicotine.

Carolina xtraction had the best.

Then there was Liquid Barn, but they stopped the Nic, as well.

This sux, gonna be hard to find quality Nicotine.

Delosi does indeed carry 100 mg/ml nic base in both freebase and salts.

For everyone who filed chargebacks!!!!

Apparently they are pushing back on them; I just saw my card provider reversed my chargebacks saying they responded to the case against them

I had to call my card provider to have a real person actually see that what they sent as “proof” wasn’t actually proof at all and they put it back under investigation and reversed the charges again

Go check your statements

Was wondering the same thing and came to reddit see if someone else having the same issue.

I placed an order mid September, still waiting.

I emailed them 3 times, no answer. Not anserwing my calls either.

But they were fast to charge my credit card.

I think we got duped.

time for a chargeback

by Amartia-over 2 years ago

The first 2 weeks i wasnt concerned, been ordering from them for years, theyre always a little slow at shipping out.

I started emailing them on the 3rd week.

Theyre legit, i read somewhere on FB that it has to do with the supply chain??

but still, why arent the replying?

My order is well over $150, its not chump change.

It is not because of the supply chain. Do a charge back.

I literally just bought 500ml of salt nic with them yesterday.. -_-

So my dispute for Carolina was denied 🤬. Was wondering what information everyone else included that helped them with theirs. I’m pissed as i still have not received anything and basically had my money stolen by a dead guy.

I see his name as removed as director from Carolina xtraction in 2021. Was he already gone?

DARN. I have been ordering 100ml every 2-3 months for a few years. I’m totally screwed now, haven’t the faintest idea where to start looking (that’s a concern, not a request, not trying to break any rules). ARGH I’m in the middle of grieving two deaths in two months and I’m not ready to quit but noone carries 30+mg/ml juice in my state. It is what it is. Good to know that’s why it’s been 3 weeks and a chargeback is justified. :-(
