last transactions just before the ab & h crash

couple of things happened that were a little odd.

on ab, an order was said to have shipped and then reshipped. i messaged the vendor to confirm it had been resent as promised (if confirmed, i would have given up on ever receiving it), but the vendor said they would send it again (supposedly for the third time). i expressed surprise but the vendor said he wanted to keep customer happy (or something like that). naturally i had to resend shipping details - manual pgp used.

nothing ever did arrive.

also on hansa just before the take down, i ordered a particular product, but after ordering it seemed that the overseas vendor only shipped domestically. i don't know if i made the error (did not read the options), or if the vendor later changed shipping destination details, but the vendor said he would make an exception and ship it. in hindsight, this was when hansa had the feds onboard.

this product arrived uneventfully in due course.

plus there was another order on hansa where i twice sent shipping details, and twice was told the vendor could not decrypt my message. that one had to be feds i would figure.

none of the transactions was large (personal use).

opsec and clean property obviously the way to go but i'm posting this to see what people make of it and if anyone else had similar experiences.

Sounds to me like you received a pack from one of the remaining legit vendors, then were smart enough to dodge several very real bullets by using manual PGP and ignoring sketchy vendor efforts to get an unencrypted address.

And yeah, clean house anyway, but bravo to you sir.
