Title: First order.
Post by: cantellya on February 09, 2013, 06:19 pm
Will vendors decline an order if you're a newbie? I do a lot more reading on these forums than posting- so I just wonder how that reflects, if at all on the actual SR. Anyways- first order is placed. Any advice or words of wisdom? I've heard be patient, and polite. Don't finalize early. Finalize as soon as you receive.

No, most vendors will work with newbies :)

Some require things like finalizing early (which I wouldn't do except under exceptional circumstances), or won't give you a full refund if you're new, but - depending on what you're buying - it's usually possible to find a vendor who'll treat newbies well. AFAIK, post count has no effect on whether vendors will deal with you or not - only your purchase/refund history.

It depends on the seller, but most are very understandable. There's always the escrow system which helps alleviate some of the concern of sellers selling to newbies. If you're still unsure with a particular seller, then just message them. Almost everyone is very nice.

If a vendor refuses to do business just because you're new, he is an asshole, and you should decide NOT to do business with him.  It's a different story when the potential buyer has a long list of forced finalizations or returns, but if it's just because you're new, that's just a dick way to be.  There's one vendor on here who says that if you have less than 5 transactions you must email him first for permission to place an order, and guess how many transactions he's made?  ZERO.

I'm a new vendor, after months of buying.
I would be delighted to work with newcomers to the silkroad community!

What the people demand, the people get :) ... SilkRoad is so wonderful!

just choose your vendor carefully. Some of them like to scam noobs. Search the forums.. query something like "<vendorname> scammer".

Check their vendor page to see if they are open to it or not.  When in doubt, shoot them a message to confirm - use PGP even though youre prbly not gonna be sending sensitive info in this message just to show youre with it.  Stay in escrow, dont FE, should be good (at least I hope as I am waiting on my first in transit)

We're all kind of newbies here.  You may want to start a new thread, because I'm sure someone has a few MDMA orders under their belt already and could point you in a good direction.  I know some great vendors for vicodin here.  Good luck!

If you search vendors' names on the forum, you can usually find review threads - these, in combination with the feedback people have left on their vendor/product pages give you a good idea of how reliable the vendor is. And, yeah, don't finalize early.

Go to the rumor mill thread in the main (non-noob) forum - you cant post but can read and have recommendations and reviews for vendors by drug

On the mdma i would recommend staying domestic unless your trying for bulk or something. 
My 10g order w SuperTrips is on it's 12th shipping day and still nothing.  I however made the mistake of FE, since he request it for orders under 1000usd.  It hasnt been too long i suppose, by the 22nd day if still nothing i'll message his team.  Great first order experience for me..

Oh, man, that sucks.  You might want to go ahead and email his "team" now.  SR's escrow system is the single most powerful tool the buyers have against fraud.  When you give that away, there's no going back.

My first order I ordered a gram of weed domestically and apparently the weed was seized pfft, didint even get a customs letter. The guy must of been testing to see how fucking retarded I was, but I kept bugging him 24/7 and he evantluy did a 100% resend and it arrived 2 days later, just be careful alot of vendors a dicks and take of advantage of you because your new, but whist saying that there's some awesome vendors out there that will do the right thing by you.
