Title: Can vendors see who places reviews?
Post by: Secret_Squirrel on April 09, 2013, 06:09 pm
I guess I was just wondering about this, if we have a bad experience with getting something fake from a vendor and we leave a bad score, do they see a page with our username and our feedback so they can fix it or worst case get revenge now that they know we use silk road and have a name and address for us?

yep, sucks huh?  so the moral of the story is to be very careful who you deal with...

I doubt any vendor will take "revenge" on someone who probably lives far away from them.

From their perspective they have your money, if you don't like the product oh well plenty of other people do.  Drugs sell themselves.

Now if you some how screwed them out of money or product, maybe then you should worry.

I would never give a good review to someone because i was worried about that or even if they threatened me. This place only works if we warn each other about scammers. I do an extreme amount of research before buying from anyone with the exception of my last 2 transactions which were very small amounts of money. I've built my stats up over the last year too and have never had to go to a resolution or auto-finalized plus I've spent alot. Unfortunately i did not take the time to post a lot other than to review purchases so my post count puts me as a fucking newbie in the forums. Resolving that now.

Wow I was actually not aware that the vendors could see who posted the reviews. I thought they usually knew from order time or context. I was definitely misled there, as I seem to recall one vendor claiming they "didn't know who left them the bad feedback so they couldn't resolve the problem". Definitely good info to know, although I have had no real issues thus far with any of my 20+ transactions. (Except for my most recent one with Oliver's "oxycodone hydrochloride" aka baking soda. First non 5/5 review I've ever left.)

Same here, I found out just now.  I'm definitely going to keep this in mind.

I don't think you should say that too loudly.... Hang around a bit longer and you will rescind that statement. :-\

If they couldn't, then they couldn't run deals like "first 50 reviews get a free refund"
