Moronic Monday - it's your weekly stupid questions thread!

Hey /r/DarkNetMarkets , it is time for Moronic Monday!

Post your question - stupid or otherwise - here to get an answer. Anyone can post a question and the community as a whole is invited and encouraged to provide an answer. Many questions get submitted late each week that don't get a lot of action, so if your question didn't get answered before, feel free to post it again.

If you are a noob, check out our comprehensive FAQ; it is essentially a guide for buying from a DarkNet Market. You may also find it helpful to take a look at our informative community posts, which are full of valuable information and tips.

We do ask that you refrain from abusing noobs in this thread. Remember that everyone had to start somewhere.

FIRST!11!1! But seriously, I have two questions.

  1. What is multisig, how does it work, and how is it safer over escrow?
  2. I'd love to contribute to this community. What guides are needed? /u/torr0t is a God with his guides, and they've helped me learn a lot about the workings of the DNM. However I think they could be dumbed down just a bit more, and with pictures. No offence to him!

When the hell did weed get so complicated? I stopped smoking over a decade ago (yes I'm old shaddup get off my lawn) because it wasn't agreeing with me and I was never much of a smoker anyway. I prefered MDMA, so no big loss.

But now I look at the vendor offerings and holy crap - do most folks actually know the difference between these 6969 strains and have preferences? I'm not sure I have any interest in trying again but is there some 101 that explains all this variety?

Just commenting to say how much I appreciate this community. As a noob, you guys have made learning and research something actually accessible. All I can say Is thank you. If there's anything you want to say or knowledge you feel should be passed on, I will happily listen.

Why doesn't LE have an army of shill accounts that downvote anything knowledgeable into oblivion?

TheLemonAdeStand - Can anyone comment on their experience ordering to Canada?

Maritimes - Eastern/central would be most helpful but I understand if you don't want to comment on location.

Here's a dumb question. How do I find local (legal) Doctors for pain managment? Is there some search term on craigslist, or am I really just at the mercy of whatever vender on the darknet?

I'm new, and I understand the market, but there's got to be a way to find docs around me. Right?

Um, what is PGP or I2P? Sorry, total non-techie here. I understand Tor and Bitcoins.

Is there any advantage or disadvantages between using a PO box other than a roommate going through my mail rather than a normal address? I read that dorms are some of the best place to ship things but don't wanna get kicked out of school so I have options between my dorm address, a PO box, or a friends address.

What's an ideal computer/OS to install TAILS onto?

I'm currently using a regular MacBook and Tor to browse the darknets. I want to start using TAILS. If I could use the same hardware and just put TAILS onto a USB drive, that would be great.

Hey guys Im from Canada and recently had a package that either got seized, lost or stolen and I never received "love letter" I assume maybe the package was sent to fake return address and someone opened it but who knows. It was a domestic package, not international. It's been almost two months from the time I ordered.

Has anyone ever received a love letter from Canada post in regards to having "domestic" package confiscated?

If anyone has been in same shoes as me how long did you wait before ordering again

A friend of mine used Silk Road 2.0 to buy small amounts of mj most likely considered for personal use. He used all the proper protocol such as using VPN when using Tor, not associating real identity with bitcoins or wallets, tumbling bitcoins etc. except for one. When he gave his address to the vendor he didn't use PGP and typed it directly into the message box (I know very stupid of him). Now since Silk Road 2.0 has been seized by LE what threat does this pose to him?

Fortunately, he has since moved to a different address but I'm sure the authorities have access to all the messages he typed to the vendor including the address. Could they track him down because his address was on some server somewhere and try to track down his small mj purchases? Or is LE most likely gonna ignore the small time deals and go for the big vendors instead?

Do I need to worry about bitcoin being traceable back to me?

Holy shit. So glad this thread was here when I found this subreddit. Alright.. bear with me.

I am in Canada, and I only want to buy like 1-2 grams of weed online, I was wondering what the worst punishment would be if I got caught. Also:

How much does weed/shipping usually cost from an online vendor?

Any safety tips you can give me? To avoid being caught, scammed, or anything like that?

Lastly, any sites you can all recommend me that are trustworthy and have a good reputation? I almost fell straight into a scam earlier until I researched it further and ended up here somehow.

Thanks, friends!

Edit: sorry guys im on mobile and butchered the formatting.. also one last question: Are there any sites that take paypal or anything other than bitcoin?

When a vendor says shipping with tracking, does that mean they provide you with a tracking number? Or do they just check on your tracking if you request.

I'm assuming providing a tracking number is probably poor opsec for one reason or another.


[1 Points] Fab3r:

So I think I'm ready for my first buy. But how does this shipping thing work? Most of the time the shipping is the same price as the item itself in the dropdown boxes?

Thanks.


[1 Points] darknetmarketthrown:

I'm finalizing the laborious process of converting USD to BTC and looking at getting my first purchase of maybe 5-10 doses of a bunch of psychedelics i've never tried before. Is it possible to get things shipped together to increase stealth? I don't want millions of out-of-area packages being shipped to my house simultaneously: that would surely be alarming. Do any vendors sell "packaged" deals? Any other tips for my first purchase?

Thank you all, this is a wonderful community to find.

ordered stuff like a month ago, and then another thing about a week after. The latter has arived from the netherlands, and still no sign of the first order. Should I be fearful?

So I have a Coinbase account, but I am looking to use another online wallet to transfer bitcoins to and put them through the tumbler process before spending them. I'm looking for recommendations on a wallet to use for this purpose. I was thinking Electrum at first, but it's an application that needs to be downloaded. Should this be avoided if I want to use this second wallet completely through Tor?
