In light of the recent exit scam/extortion attempt that was being discussed, I wonder how many people have used darknet markets successfully and whether people think they are worth it overall, based on experience.
I remember looking at the first silk road with my friend back on 2011 and for our purposes, it wasn't worth it. If it was around today as it was before DPR the first got taken down then I would use it for certain things but since then, there have been so many exit scams and people getting ripped off by individual vendors that I wonder if it's even worth it.
Have people had experiences getting what they actually ordered? Did this last? Have people been ripped off? Have people used different ones with varying success?
Certain ways of getting certain illegal (but traditionally not policed much) drugs - medicines I would say based on my own needs - seem to be under threat from the state now and so I am considering looking at the darknet out of curiosity really but I don't trust it. I imagine that the best ones are kept fairly well hidden from the public. The first silk road was eventually common knowledge and once it got to the press, the amount of customers went up massively.
Anyway, people's experiences, opinions and so on. My opinion is that they are probably more hassle than they are worth nowadays unless you find one that you have found to be trustworthy.
I started getting my H from a vendor on a market called **
MOD EDIT: DONT MENTION MARKET NAME PLEASE**. The market is now gone, but the vendor turned out to be spot on. The experience however is something I will never, ever forget.
I no longer have access to this vendor, but once I get through my latest purchase I'll likely find another. If I don't induce suboxone, that is the current plan, but I digress. I purchased from the same vendor 3 times. The first was great. Took 5 days, the hassle of buying BTC, exchanging for XMR, and the proceed of navigating the site for a vendor was a hassle, but it got pretty easy. Use tails, and don't access any of your public accounts. It's easy not to because the entire process of using the DN is a pain in the ass. It's slow (Tor) and you get timed out a lot. So the second purchase is where my troubles began. The site began to act as if I were phished. In fact I was sure I'd gotten phished and then 2 weeks later bam.. dope in the mailbox. So I liked this vendor.. the quality was exceptional. My God. It was the best dog food I've ever down in my life. Just beautiful. So the vendor said she felt bad about the wait. And offered to "make it right" if I contacted them on telegram. Which I did and I felt like I could trust them so I went direct with the next order. No market.
As soon as they got the crypto, their responses went all weird and I could not get a straight answer about the shipment. They just refused to tell me when or if they were shipping. So a week goes by and I give up... I fucked up. Always use the market. They get the order, you pay, they ship, you receive, and then they get paid. Use the market. So 2 weeks go by, finally they message me about some word shit. "Do I owe you a pack?" WTF? "I don't get anything from you! I assumed you scammed me." Which makes little sense because why scam a good thing? Well they said no, it's been busy, blah,blah, same weird ass messages, but I sent my address pgp again and once again.. "can you tell.me when you'll ship, or give me an idea? " "Well, I don't like lying , so I just can't say when. I refuse to lie, I'll just do my best " well I lost my shit. Sent a longgggggg text about how cruel this person is and how it's an opioid. I need this shit, and how now Im doing fentanyl cause you can't ship... You get the idea. I deleted telegram and walked away. 4 days later I get a package.... Holy shit.. there it is. So I apologize, and they start up with how I'm such a bad person for being so mean... It got ugly. But I left it with a serious apology. Deleted the app again... Two days later .. got another package.
They double shipped me.
Holy fuck. That's a lot of dope.
So I was the asshole. But my point is till the same.. don't be a dumbass and answer simple fucking questions.
I have since paid for the second package. But I will never use them again. Lol
