What if...

The past drop in DNM product quality and vendor professionalism is all one big ruse by the feds to discourage us from using markets? The best vendors are slowly leaving one by one due to a mixture of Tor security flaws, IRL problems and (occasional) busts. LE fills the void with garbage fake vendors and progressively tests our patience more and more.

They know that we have nothing. We are but consumers, and the entire role of a consumer relies on the fact that a producer will produce. If the only thing available in the DNM cafeteria is shit, then we'll take a big ole helping of that shit and spoon it into our bowls. But all humans have a limit for what they can tolerate, and LE is pushing us towards that. It's easier to corrupt something than it is to eradicate it.

As long as there's money to be made, real vendors will operate. Feds can make fake vendors but need fake buyers for reviews... multiple bitcoin purchases from multiple accounts for multple reviews to snatch one or two kids buying a gram of coke or MDMA or LSD just isn't worth it.

Cautious buyers will always seek the the red flags from vendors, and FEDS wanna catch the sellers, not the buyers.

So this market will continue to thrive until they find a way to completely un-anonymize TOR, and make posting requirements more strict (good luck), and make domestic inspections more thorough (good luck gov spending) OR technology advances so EVERY piece of mail goes through a machine which scans for illicit substances.

Poor professionalism in vendors is more a phase rather than anything else, there's no single dominating market, buyers are taking more risks and trusting vendors they shouldn't, and vendors are looking for a quick buck ripping off the reckless.

I agree. Recently they had a class to teach cops how to be vendors and work a market. Not to offend anyone but there are lot of folks that are not as skeptical as they should be. Comes with age and being screwed over the years. They See new vendor says I was here and there and this and that. Opening sale and People jump on it.

They want to disrupt anything they can't stop. It is the next best thing. Assholes!
