I've seen the owner (/u/the_armory) around here a bunch and decided to check it out. The owner seems like a smart and well versed guy and I've never seen scam reports about The Armory but I've never seen any vouches, either. Can anybody vouch for their legitimacy?
BMR had very few reports on us (Under the name International Arms, since at the time there was a Silk Road project under the same name), and we had forums up dating back to July 2013.
However BMR forums finally went down, and ours were hosted with Cyruserv which was shut down.
Yes, we realize this looks bad at times, but we have made attempts to remedy this issue with zero trust transactions.
This means we sell through escrow be it on markets (if you trust White Rabbit) or through your choice of .onion escrow.
No deposits, upfront payments, or anything outside of escrow.
However the lack of scam reports is a good sign for any vendor, as several older forums and boards (and reddit) are still up.
If there are any questions you have please feel free to ask!
