Title: How did you end up here?
Post by: britkid55 on May 20, 2013, 09:57 pm
I was just interested to see how everyone stumbled upon the site. I had heard of the Silk Road through University! Someone was bold enough to mention it in my Poly Sci/Drug class asking the Professor if he had ever heard of it  ;D Prior to that one of my buddies successfully ordered but I was just too lazy to try because I could get everything I wanted. Now that I am done with school and moved to a new location I was searching the web for possible online Pharms and it was all too sketchy! Then I remembered THE SILK ROAD! I swear people make it out to be a lot harder than it is. I don't know if anyone else feels the same but I was so skeptical about this at first and very hesitant to even research it until I did and now I feel like its extremely safe if used the right way.

So let me here your stories (One way to pass the time while I await my first order!)

ahhh the joy of browsing the internet! What would we do without it.... Baranliam seems like your plug was nice enough although he overcharged you for who knows how long! Certainly some variability in stories...Keep em comin!

shit i just moved locations so I don't know a soul, which is what turned me to the site but man if I had this a year ago I would be laughing in money at least for certain products that weren't readily available or it was but it was bunk ass shit! Oh well I am just glad I found a reliable place!

I googled, "how to buy drugs on the internet".  From there it's all history.

I stumbled in here after reading about it in a news article. I thought... for real? Due diligence followed, intro to TOR, learning PGP, TAILS drive, obtaining bitcoins, etc.

Yesterday I received my first two orders and I am so excited :)

cheers,

Through a friend. I was hell nervous/paranoid receiving my first order and wondering if this is actually Legit. Best. Site. Ever.

I was looking for child pornography, but now I'm addicted to drugs instead.


Nah, I've known about the site for a long time, and I probably heard about it from a friend at some point. I wasn't really interested in drugs up until around last year and I've been placing a few orders since then. I guess curiosity built up over time! I'm still sober all the time, except for that one time every couple of months where I do psychedelics.

I'm pretty computer savvy and usually in the know of most things on the internet, but was surprised about the Road when my friend told me all about where he got such a great deal on some flowers, and explained to me how it all worked and how bitcoins worked an all.   I definitely had my mind blown, first with the road and then with cryptocurrency.   I think the road is a genius idea and helps the lives of others actually.     I actually need flowers to get by with chronic pain, so thank you for the road, since it's very hard to get stuff with your confined in a house so the road is a lifesaver for me.      word of mouth is the best way to spread news!

Post by: britkid55 on May 22, 2013, 07:02 pm
i think that fact is that if you do your search your getting quality goods and the way the site is set up using escrow it eliminates most of the risk involved... although you receive some scammers as long as your smart do the research and do your due diligence there really is nothing to worry about IMO i WAS JUST TERRIFIED that i wrote the wrong address encrypted i would be nice to see it in english but oh well just received my first package and it rocks!

I had texted my friend asking him if he knew where I could find any MDMA.  He said he didn't know, but I could always try Silk Road.  Confused, I google searched Silk Road, which showed me a map where a Silk Road was nearest to my house - like, an actual road.  Now I was REALLY confused.  I texted him asking if I should just go to that road and knock on the first house and ask for MDMA or what.  He then informed me that it's a website LOL

And now here I am.

Lmao! Welcome to the Real Silk Road. I'd hate to see what would've happened if you went to a random person's house asking for Molly.

I was poking around online and someone mentioned getting drugs from a road of silk. I was interested in getting in on the fun so I started looking into Tor and SR and ended up in the magical world of buying drugs online.

Post by: sirsmoke on June 03, 2013, 11:06 pm
i come from germany and here where i live is no lsd so i search a way to get some.
soon i found the deep web and many drug selling sites but non of these are so nice as silkroad.
here you can read feedbacks or reviews before ordering and the escrow system is really nice.
but the best thing i think is that i can get lsd everytime :)))

LOL.

For the past few months I've been half-assly looking for legitimate LSD/MDMA/DMT...then one day I was doing some random shit on YouTube and one of the suggested videos was "How to buy drugs online". I guess you have to wait for the drugs to find you. A few days of research/preparation later and i'm eagerly awaiting my first 4 orders.

I was trying to find some interesting new drugs locally when someone posted about the silk road on reddit. I was ecstatic, now I can get pretty much anything I could ever want without having to go through shady dealers, middlemen, or users.

Been seeing it in the news for years, remember seeing it a few years ago, i tried to get on but couldnt figure it out(i didnt try that hard). So i lost my curiosity, fast forward and im reading up on bitcoins and it comes up again, i decide to try to get access to it again and when i do im blown away the first time the mainpage loads with all the drugs for sale. AWESOME!

Reddit!  That motha is filled with SR jargon.  I decided to check it out myself and I must say that I almost salivate every time I load the SR main page.  The only problem is I'm having a difficult time getting a vendor to accept and send my order.  The life of a newbie!  Any advice?

I found this through the awesome people of Vice. Check out their youtube channel, it's fantastic. Also, some Howard Stern fans pointed me to the actual site address. Thanks!

I heard about it a good while ago but I thought it seemed too shady and stayed away. Came after people confirmed IRL the validity of it.

I was complaining to a friend about how my dealer was so unreliable, and she was like "oh, you should try Silk Road."  I'm hesitant to ever talk about SR IRL, but I'm glad she did.

i heard about it from a friend who used the site, apparently, in it's early days. it took me a while to get around to checking it out... BTC were 13$ USD when i first started poking around the subject... and its taken me till just now to register at this forum.

long live SR!

I know how you feel, I've told a few people but it's like anything good I think. When you're in you don't want a bunch of people ruining it, but I'm glad I'm here.

Post by: world wide what on June 04, 2013, 03:27 am
I think I found out about the road randomly - similar to what happens on YouTube .... you watch one video, it leads to another and then eventually you ask yourself ... how did i get here?

I guess I was googling something that lead to me downloading Tor, opening an SR account and eventually making my first order only a couple of days ago :)

Cheers to the Silk Road and the joys it provides to hundreds-if not thousands of people!!

I had been getting told about it for a year or 2, by customers/acquaintances.
I always though it was some kind of urban legend. I'm still waiting on my first delivery. So I'm yet to be convinced.
I can't wait until I am!

Well, recently I stumbled upon quite a few people doing psychedelics, including 2c-s and other. Not knowing what those are I felt the need to figure out, so I began doing research on the net. Then I found out what rc's are. I didn't do any drugs for like five years, and in the time I did, those were all classics.

Then I ordered some aMT and similar from some kind of company in UK. Got it, tried it with the only acquaintance of mine which is interested in things, became disappointed. Went to the club, took shit loads of speed and ecstasy - remembered why I liked those long ago. In the morning I said "dude, I wish I could do this more often, I miss that so so much" and he said "did you hear about this silk road, internet black market, things and stuff?", so I came home and found it.

Now I know about rc's, tor, sr, bitcoins, mining and stuff. Funny when I think about it. ;D

I have been buying drugs online since like 8 years (mail lists, private forums,etc) but the past 2 years I was clean and lost all the contacts. First I thought that will be so difficult to get again those kind of contacts and start doing some research and end installing Tor, buying bitcoins and the past December doing my first transaction on the road. At the moment all the transactions were fantastic and I had the luck to deal only with great sellers. SR is the best thing that ever happened to me cause I live in a country where is very very dangerous get drugs in the streets, and the quality of the street drugs here are the worst so SR is the only source I have for quality and safety.

 I don't really remember, I think main stream media followed by a google search. Probably watched a video tutorial on youtube also. Not interested in drugs or anything. I mostly come here out of curiosity. I have been thinking of buying some weight loss pills because i need to drop about 80. Maybe sell some liberators in the future ;) (wish i could patent that, no one sell liberators here but me ok? lol), and maybe some weed. (I have a few seeds). 8)

I used to buy my weed from Budmail, that is until they screwed me over a 2oz order.

I remembered reading about Silk Road in a Sunday paper a while ago, so did my research (thanks Google) and here I am.

Waaaaaaaaaay better than Budmail. How I laughed when I heard the Liberty Reserve site closed down recently. BM will have lost a king's ransom because of that.

Good, slap it up them.

I was on a drug forum and they kept hinting that there was a special place that only senior members would get to hear about. But someone mentioned something that led to me finding SR over a year ago.  I still can't believe how amazing this place is. I was like a kid in a candy store at first. I have settled down and now have a few things that I like to buy.  I also love that I can research vendors and the drugs to make sure I am getting quality.  This community is also getting very good at warning people if a drug might harm them or a vendor is not stealthy enough. This is so cool and I love being a part of it. ;D
