List of items for the homework

Hi

I was reading this DarkNetMarkets but couldn't understand how other people do research for their purchases.

How did you figure out where to order from? Just researched reviews of vendors/product, created account on one of those onions websites, bought some btc and ordered stuff? Is this it or I'm missing something

Yes, those are pretty much the steps. But it takes time and getting used to how to filter through teh BS to find good vendors. Also, be very wary of where you get your onion links. Do NOT use thihngs like the hidden wiki. We have a market list that contains the links to the various markets - note that we do not endorse these markets, they are working links to help the community avoid getting phished. One thing you didn't specifically mention that warrants it is you should be PGP'ing your address.

I did quite a bit of research before ordering. Find good vendors can be hard, depending on what you are looking for. It seems like some items aren't as reviewed on the sub as other items. That makes it tough. Also, being new to it, stay in escrow. Don't FE. Now, you'll get different schools of thought on FE'ing. My advice to others is don't FE. However, I will FE with certain vendors. Usually these guys are well known and regarded in the community, have flawless reviews, and have a lot of experience. Also, I don't FE with money that I can't stand to lose.

The best advice I can offer you is to hang around. Read the sub. Visit the noob sub. Ask questions. Basic questions should go in the noob sub. You won't get a great reception if you post noob stuff here. I spent around 3 months on the sub before placing my order. I took my time. I recommend to take it slow. People who jump in too quickly tend to get scammed in one way or another. Just ensure that the link you have for the market you selected is a VALID link - check the wiki here.

I usually do a couple hours of research on a particular vendor if Im going to put in a decent amount of coin. Vendor page reviews from multiple sites if possible, forums if they're up and Reddit. Networking with other buyers can be helpful, too.

Browse the market for a vendor you want to try, check out all of his reviews and stuff, then go on here and look him up. If you also search for "best (insert drug name here) vendor" you'll find some good places to start.
