Which market to use?

Hey, I'm wishing to buy off a vendor (HoS for those who know him) and he's on both SR2 and Agora. Which market is more reliable/ the best choice for my transaction? I would hate for another TorMarket scam to happen. I'm a little hesitant of SR2 after hearing about issues with deposits. Can anyone lend some insight? Thanks!

We are very security focused and customer service oriented. We have some great (verified) vendors coming aboard.

I'm in a similar position and I'm going with Agora.

Fuck SR2 and their shitty service and messed up system.

I've used Agora once so far, and everything went smoothly - it was easy & quick to deposit & withdraw bitcoins, and ordering & comms was smooth (it helped that the vendor was good too, but I had done some research there).

Of course, who knows if Agora is totally legit, but as long as you don't keep coins there & encrypt delivery details the risk is low. In this case, as the amount was relatively small (the loss affordable), and I had picked the vendor carefully on the basis of reputation on previous market forums. I didn't bother with escrow, giving the vendor the benefit of the doubt - I kind of trusted him more with my money then the market, which is a shame; when the product arrived safely and I tried it out I gave him a good review.

After SR2 & Pandora (both of which are getting mixed reviews), Agora seems to have the most vendors, although they are taking some time to build up reputation. Until (if) the markets stabilise I'm keeping purchases small and trying to make direct contact with reputable vendors. I'm sure amongst all the chaos there are many vendors & customers who just want to get on with business.
