Another VERY important note that I sometimes forget myself: ALWAYS ALWAYS check to see the vendor's last log-in time. I've nearly ordered from vendors only to see they haven't logged in in days, weeks, even months.

The best is "don't order while high".

good post. also it's good to double, then triple check your address as well. (I copy and paste the USPS-formatted address with the extra 4 zip code numbers from a notepad file to avoid any mistakes since I fucked it up once after a recent address change.)

One I often suggest (but doesn't really go with this list) is never spend money you can't afford to lose, shit happens sometimes and there's no recourse. You should be in pretty good shape if you follow this list though!

I like the hitchhikers guide reference at the end. Subtle. Maybe you didn't even mean to, who knows!

No stoned orders? Guess I'm never buying anything ever again.

Remember with bitcoins, never have more than what you can afford to lose. If the value of bitcoins drops significantly, you use the wrong address for a transaction, a market steals what was in your wallet etc etc you should be able to size it up with your financial situation and not consider it a major loss. Cash in your bank account is more secure and safer than bitcoins by the nature of bitcoins, so don't blow 2 weeks pay on coins so you don't have to buy more when you need to restock.

I really like this, actually. saved for further notice.

Be nice to your vendor. I've gotten some super deals just by being nice. Shakedownstreet gave me 6 ninja turtles for free, unclepsychedelic hooked me up on some cheap 2c-b, Thurgood sent me a half oz when I bought an eighth. Be nice.


[2 Points] datdropdoe:

You should mention to quadruple check your address when ordering!

Don't order high or black out drunk! I received a package today of some mystery powder only to find out after searching through all my markets that I did, in fact, order a gram of Xanax off Agora. On a side note, Opioid God has some good stuff!

Sorry to nitpick, but its probably not a good idea to mention whonix for someone buying. The benefits are more for someone running a market. The reason I mention this is because its much more difficult to setup correctly and its not mobile since it requires 2 PCs/laptops. Liberté would be much more suitable although no one mentions it.

I still don't understand why you guys keep making these and posting these here. Yes, it's helpful, but the subreddit for this is /r/darknetmarketsNOOBS.
