fucking 11k


[18 Points] Agec631:

About 0.00001 bitcoin and some edibles that, despite using fe, through messaging him on hansa, ukfruits is refusing to send until 'alphabay comes back'...

UPDATE: Messaged him to see if we could figure something out, and for some reason he came back with threats about "having my address ;)" and he doesn't ship to my address, which is mainland uk'...

So, as well as being a bit of an ass, he also saves peoples addresses, lovely guy

Bear in mind this was for some hash edibles, not a kilo of fucking cocaine. Threatening me like he's a kingpin or some shit kek

On the plus side, as a recovering dnm smack addict, I'm super glad I'm not scrambling/stressing over the current dnm chaos.


[11 Points] dankmarket:

About $8. I'm going to lose a lot of sleep over this.

Its not lost and I am very hopeful that Ding Dong will be up and running again like before.

$350 thanks asshole

Edit: I totally empathize your pain brother, this was some poor judgement on my part, I became complacent and depressed because the k game got fucked recently. Was in my wallet maybe 5 days waiting to make a decision on a plan bk

6500$ CAD, was only 7k away from being approved for FE... THAT SUCKS!


[4 Points] Potatos500:

2 btc so around $5k. Not too bad because I got them when coin was at $1500 but still...


[3 Points] TheShattering:

I didn't lose to much money ($700). What I lose was my great feedback on AB. It will be a slow couple of weeks building my prestige back up.


[3 Points] Elizabeth_Kelly:

So this seems like a decent thread to ask in, can OP or anyone else explain to me why you leave considerable amounts of cash on the market? It just seems completely unnecessary and just asking for trouble. Why not just send as much as you need for your purchase and that's it? I really just don't understand it at all.

0.0035 btc

Omg. I really do have about tree fiddy

130 for shrooms


[1 Points] writingpoli:

<$15. Waiting on a shipping-only edible sample from a new vendor who was probably going to try to scam me anyway (haven't received the pack, and it was marked shipped days before AB went down).

So, no great loss. I never leave excess cash sitting in web-based wallets, especially market wallets.


[1 Points] konpla11:

44€ and 2 samples worth 10€ each


[1 Points] hhayn:

Approx $1150


[1 Points] None:

nada. never liked the idea of a market requiring me to make deposits before buying anything.


[1 Points] LeftHandDinosaur:

$350 but only cause an order was cancelled and refunded due to vendor inactivity about 12 hours before AB went down #prayforalphabay


[1 Points] uglytoadinsauce:

I lost about 75 EUR. I was unlucky since I bought the bitcoin and made an order for about 40 EUR on the very day that AB fucked us. Didn't get my package so I assume it's lost unless I manage to find the vendor somewhere else.

I lost a whole 3


[1 Points] JennyIsADude:

It would be hilarious if AB came up and all the feedback from this thread hits. AB having extended downtimes might actually improve vendors' game.


[1 Points] Just-Touch-It:

If AlphaBay doesn't return then I've only lost roughly 2-3 dollars. It's good practice to never leave coin in your market's wallet and to try to make your purchases relatively quick after doing your research and calculations beforehand. The only thing you want to take your time with while having coin in your market wallet is when actually selecting the product, the quantity/amount your purchasing, and when submitting your address info which shouldn't take more than around 10 minutes.

The only other time to take your time is when withdrawing coins out of the market wallet as to make sure the amount of coins being moved and the wallet address you're moving coins to is correct which again shouldn't take more than 10 minutes. In other words, store your coins you're not using in outside legitimate wallet(s) while doing your research on products, markets, and vendors before putting coin in your market's wallet and to never leave any or at worst more than a few dollars in your market's wallet for long periods. Otherwise, you risk learning an expensive lesson and having no coins or product.

Too much. FFS

$8


[1 Points] gaffer17754:

about 20 bucks in the wallet but my order from earlier in the week never arrived so including that about 100.

I think I'm jinxed. This is the third time this has happened to me, Evo, BlackBank, now AB. All three times I was away for a couple of months, came back, ordered, bam exit scam. I'm giving up on DNM after this.


[1 Points] schwillynelson89:

my rent money bruh! just kidding, but i'm sure there are plenty of scrubs out there in such an exact predicament.


[1 Points] None:

Ive lost $2900 from NZ :( Guess my prices of LSD is going up again

To be honest im just let this side and start on Dream with FE listing


[1 Points] MitalikaSucks:

The wallet was empty b ut there were 2 orders that didn't come thru for 500$. not really sure what to do


[1 Points] None:

No point in bitching about it no offense. It's an illegal marketplace, one we have to trust because of the war on drugs. Sucks, but it's fucking true.


[1 Points] anonymcsgocheater:

nothing


[1 Points] dobby420:

I think my shit was already sent out but now I'm concerned that if AB is pulling exit scam like Evo then the funds will never get finalised to them? Hope AB comes back soon.


[1 Points] geotristan:

I got lucky and only lost roughly 120 usd


[1 Points] darkswizzly:

I lost a huge cumshot... in the mouth of a FBI Agent... he swallowed everything... it was horrible...

[1 Points] Zzzyyxas:

0.08BTCs. I had just moved house from a previous address where I had stuff seized previously and received a 'love letter' (I'm from Aus). Was about to enjoy ordering stuff from my new clean address. Typical.

I ordered 3 things 2 days before the shit storm. 1 of my domestic orders even turn up on day two in the shit storm. £15 tops and 3G oh shroom, not bad. Fell real sorry for some folk though


[1 Points] Tired8281:

I think I had 0.000001BTC in there, couldn't withdraw it because it was too small (I probably have the number of zeroes wrong but it was a really tiny amount from a rounding error I made). Whatever the smallest amount of BTC you could have there, that's how much I lost. Not going to lose much sleep, although if you add up everyone's rounding errors it's probably a dear amount in total.
