So in my first dispute with vendor on alphabay. Pretty standard deal except I disputed pretty early. Basically this happened. Pretty straightfoward. I make purchase for an express shipment on AB and vendor confirms it'll be shipped out in a few hours and will soon receive notification. This was Thursday morning. Basically nothing since. Nothing showed up Friday, Saturday, Tuesday or today. Nothing has ever shown up on myusps (so despite its bad reputation I've never had an order not appear there at some point). Numerous messages to vendor later...no response...he's been online. Don't understand why he would try to scam...small time vendor..small order...would not be good to have a negative feedback ..would stick out badly. And funds are in escrow?!?
I disputed on ab because he won't respond at all. Moderator says to start conversation and provide as much proof as possible. All I have are the conversations on ab messaging...all of which are me leaving messages to him ...nothing from him since 29th.
So what do you provide for proof? Screens shots of conversation? How do you get those loaded onto a message in the market? Any thoughts?
The proof will be in the tracking (or lack thereof).
