What do you offer that other marketplace do not already offer to both customers and vendors?

[–]MiddleEarthMarket 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Whilst the site offers many nice features such as encryption on the fly messaging, permanent data deletion, automatic meta data stripping from photos etc. These are not it's main selling points. Middle Earth marketplace is a faster, highly polished and more efficient version of other sites. The crew running Middle Earth marketplace have extensive experience, with over 4 years of TOR vending under their belt and the tech department is second to none. We also have around the clock customer service which we take extremely seriously as this is something that has aggravated us throughout our vending history on other sites. Middle Earth marketplace's forte is it's user friendlyness and efficiency.

I applaud your intentions here but one of the things we try to do here is educate users that things the like this are INHERENTLY UNSAFE.

Server side ANYTHING is horrible when it comes to the DNM's.

Yes, those are huge red flags, not only because it's possible they're flawed and the users verify their integrity, but also assuming they do work, they allow the user to let their guard down for when they may break in the future.

A higher quality marketplace. Most marketplaces are the Nintendo Game-Boy, Middle Earth is the XBox One.

Come and try the marketplace - you just might like it! -TheHobbit. mango7u3rivtwxy7.onion

Fuck those captchas

[–]Vendor27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't have a problem with those. The site looks good and I just love the theme. I might start vending there instead of Agora once it gets a bit more popular.

Just.... stop...

[–]galaxyandspace 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Didn't you advertise a long time ago that this was coming?

What is going to make you popular?

[–]hugsfordrugs[M] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

If you'll send us (the mods of /r/DarkNetMarkets) a message in a week to remind us, we'll put your market name and address in the sidebar, provided the market is still alive and well.

Come on guys, the captcha is not THAT hard.

[–]KarmaTaBurn 0 points1 point  (1 child)

A 9 char captcha is a bit extreme. I've also tried to create a user account with my standard DNM useername and keep on seeing this error. Odd error if I may say so myself...especially when the username is fairly simple.

username Incorrect letters in username

[–]MiddleEarthMarket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A username may only contain letters, numbers the characters @/./+/-/_ Spaces in names are not allowed.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to log in and create an account with no problems what so ever. Actually it was easier than some of the other sites. Definitely fast like you said, but thats because it isn't as popular as some other markets.

    I have customer account. Captcha only took me 2 tries. Not very populated yet but the site is sick

    [–]MiddleEarthHobbit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Good to hear :)

    Spread the word good sir. -TheHobbit. mango7u3rivtwxy7.onion

    Update from Middle Earth Marketplace!!!

    It's going well everyone! I've had some great responses from you all about the site. Thank you! About the captcha - it's very secure and much easier once you have done it a few times. Stick with it. So far we have 200+ customer accounts and 23 vendor accounts. Come on vendors!!! PLEASE put your listings up if you already have your vendor account!!! I'm still offering free vendor accounts to those of you whose vendor name I know. My offer will not last forever though guys!

    I will update you all on the progress of Middle Earth marketplace as we go.

    Come visit us - you might just like it!

    Best wishes everbody, -TheHobbit.

    Looks like a nice site. No listings, but the layouts better than Agora.

    [–]_Zlatan 1 point2 points  (5 children)

    agora is the standard?
