I always see a lot of scam reports on here, but I have not been scammed yet (approx 80 orders over last 2+ years). Just got me thinking am I just lucky/good at picking vendors, or is there a large percentage of us who haven't been scammed either?
Anyone else never been scammed?

I've been scammed twice since 2010, once on some fe MDMA from stoeprand on silkroad and another time for 100 bars when alcaponereloaded exit scammed BMR. That's out of over 500 successful orders.
Before the darknet it did mail order with this 'hesnice' guy and never had a problem.

I have never been scammed (less than a dozen orders over the years though) because I take my time to research vendors. Grams InfoDesk is a valuable tool for that (see sidebar link) and you should always check the vendor's last 2-4 week's feedback for signs of scamming, like everyone FEing without updating.

I got scammed because my first order every was on Amazon Dark and the vendor seemed like a really cool guy and we chatted back and forth, well the order was supposed to take 5-15 days to get here and the site went down after he said the order had shipped. So I thought no worries i will still get my stuff anyways, well I'm pretty sure the guy was gonna fuck me over anyways. Oh well tho, only 40 dollars

No never. Even with FE. Basically you can have the best vendor or the worst vendor, but if you order before they exit scam, you wont get scammed yourself. That way many people have never experience one i would guess. (but lots of vendors closes down without exit scamming. Some just make a holiday mode and never comes back while others just quit after a losing their money once more on a market place that stole it all or got taken down. A few times i have seen some come right out an say it and still finish their orders.)

I have had many successful orders over the years but its just recently that I've been scammed during the advent of consecutive market scams. I have a suspicious that the "big" vendors get info before everyone else when theres going to be a market shutdown or exit scam. The scurvy crew conveniently decide to sell only thru middle earth market and after a month or so it exit scams. Scamming me and maybe other people in the process. At the same time, I got scammed by AJAXFC.. this guy is really fishy to deal with. He wil never admit he is a scammer and didnt send the goods. and will never attempt to compromise on a reship on an item he never sent in the first place. He replies with one word answers when he does decide to reply after many many days. oh well its just a recent series of unfortunate events for me...

I have missed at least a couple exit scams. I ordered from Pure Fire Meds and Bungee, both not all that long before they exited.

I got scammed once, although I was kind of expecting it (selective scammer, but he would send the first time and then not after. It was good cid, but it came with this really gorgeous stamp, so I was kind of just hoping he wouldn't scam me because I have a little bit of a dnm-stamp collection going), so, my fault of fe'ing... not to mention I did my research, like I knew he scammed on the second try but I just REALLY wanted another stamp. And then I got semi-scammed on a small-time vendor (would've gone with BV, but I do enjoy helping out new vendors with a good review and some constructive criticism if they need it). I say semi, because everything about the order was poor (except communication, I'm easily swayed by smooth-talkers, all right?). I was still able to get high, it just involved scraping the envelope and chewing on the bag. Also I could've disputed it because the coins were still in escrow, but I got did technically get it, and I'm lazy, but I still lost money on it
[1 Points] young_k:
So far I've only been "scammed" once, and that was a pack of bars containing no alprazolam at all. Wasn't really a huge loss, as this was a long time ago when I only was ordering 100 packs to eat em "for free".
I had gotten previous orders from the vendor, and they were all legit, so the loss wasn't a huge deal. I had already made more than the loss, it was upsetting but not the end of the world. I guess that vendor had a hard time sourcing alprazolam consistently and ended up deciding to bounce with some of his customers bread...weak.

Got caught by Nucleus' auto finalize system. Was only $45 but I was more sad that I couldn't get well priced MDA :(

Abraxas scammed me for 14

Once. Tony76. Never forget. Lol
Technically had a 2nd time, but i walked into it knowing it was to good to be true and wasted the last 20$ in leftover btc.
Three years of this and the first time I was outright scammed was a month ago, lol. Alex fucking Sosa. It's the ones you trust who get you. I also had a shipping problem that remained unresolved with a certain H vendor that everyone kisses ass to but since I think it was a genuine mistake I won't name them.
