Title: Can vendors sell for others?
Post by: cigarette on August 29, 2013, 12:44 am
Pretty self explanatory, can vendors sell an item for me on SR if I do not have a vendor account?

Well, any vendors who are willing to list an item for me on SR for a % of the profit, please PM me for information.

Thank you.

There used to be a seller called Gumtree who offered this service. I think he was quite short lived though.

I can't see why a vendor would risk you fucking things up, and thus his account getting a bad rep though. So I'd say it's pretty unlikely you will manage to do this. I may be wrong though...

They could, the problem is you gotta get it to them . They're not gonna want to compromise their anonymity by giving you an address to get it to them , or if you live close, they won't want to meet you for the same reason. You could be LEO for all they know. The strength of the Road is that it's anonymous .

What about trades? I'm guessing people don't do them often (if at all), do they? And if yes, how do I go about this?.. I'm just asking in-case I'm wrong..

Same problem , how do you get a product to the vendor without compromising their anonymity?  I'm not saying no vendors at all would do this, but,  most would be reluctant for the reasons I mentioned . Especially with a new-ish member.
