So basically I have this friend (Lets call her K) who hangouts with alot of (Intoxicating) people and a couple months ago I asked if she possibly get me a "cart". Ofc she said yes, but the problem was we just became friends since the start of school year, so idek if I could rlly trust her. Anyways, I gave her around 40 dollars for the one I wanted and she said she'll probably give it to me during or after the summer break. Honestly I didnt rlly care if she did scam me cuz I have a well paying job I hoped she didn't break our trust.
About a couple weeks later (June 28th) I got a text from one of K's ex friends (V) saying "K spent all your money on alc and other stuff for herself, so don't be surprise if she's gonna make sum random excuse abt it." (Btw I never met V or talked to her EVER)
I was shocked when I received this message, but tbh I didn't care THAT much because to me it was jst a little bit of money, but I trusted K so I jst felt a bit disappointed.
Today (July 14th) I got a text from K saying "I should be able to your pen in a few days or weeks. If we aren't able to meet when I get it, I'll bring it to you when school starts" I was a little confused because I was told she already spent my money and she quoted "Sorry I didn't get it sooner, a-lot of shit happened. Most of my friends who were gonna get it aren't my friends anymore."
I subtly brought up if one of those friends were V, and she told me that V is a fucked up person and done shitty things to K. I told her that she Dm'd me accusing K of spending my money. K later sent me a paragraph saying " V took the money to the store and told me(K) it was V's money, It was killing me(K) to not say something, but I just did my job interview today, so even if I can't give it to you, you're getting your money back" and later quoting how V is fucked up and all she does is steal and blame it on others (Another time she(V) broke up a whole friend group cuz she stole the party hosts mom's vape.)
Another thing she told me is once K was half asleep and drunk at a friend's house and V started SA-ing her, blamed it on K, which led K's Bf (which was such couple goals, THEY LOVED EACH OTHER SM BTW.) to break up with her.
I'm just hoping that K is telling the truth.

Honestly, this sounds like such a complicated and stressful situation to be put in :( I can understand why you feel stuck between believing K and wondering if V was telling the truth, especially because both sides are making really serious accusations.
I think the most important thing is that you focus on what you personally know and what you can control. Right now, the only thing that directly involves you is the money and the trust between you and K. I’d probably just have an honest conversation with her and pay attention to her actions rather than only her words. If she really intends to make it right, she’ll show that by either getting you what you paid for or returning your money.
Also, regardless of who is telling the truth about the other situation, the things being mentioned are really serious. If K really went through something like that, I hope she has someone supportive around her and gets help dealing with it. Nobody deserves to experience that.
I also think it’s okay to be careful. Trust doesn’t mean ignoring red flags, and being cautious doesn’t mean you’re accusing someone of lying. You can care about K while still protecting yourself.
I really hope everything works out and that you get your money back or the thing you paid for. Hopefully this situation becomes clearer soon. Take care of yourself too<33
