and also escrow for return customers. if i buy another HP i can see a 50-50 but on my 3rd HP or more from you i or anyone like me should get the escrow treatment. if there is a dcn and its the 3rd time then it should all go smooth on both ends. right

Hello MrYellow team.

I wrote my feelings about FE on your feedback page
http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=18265.msg297061#msg297061
I response to that you wrote
http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=18265.msg298987#msg298987

I wrote that after researching many vendors that require FE and many that do not. Almost all of the vendors that go through escrow have the fastest shipping times while the ones that require FE have spotty record.

I understand the side of the vendors when it comes to having their cash on hand. But the customer takes all the risk when they FE. I would like to see you make delivery with DCN mandatory, as that would be your protection against scammers. SR support should take your side as long as the DCN says it's been delivered.

My SR account is anonaddict123 I placed an order with you last weekend, and am in the USA. I will be checking the mailbox that I have my deliveries sent to tomorrow, any of my orders that where within the US have only taken 4 days at the most to arrive. I will hope for the best going to the mailbox.

Any of my post shouldn't be taken a an attempt to flame you but as an open discussion on how we can make SR a better place for the Vendor and Customer experience.

To be honest, having to FE is the reason I haven't purchased any from you. There just isn't any incentive for a buyer to FE, especially when it's the #1 thing we are told not to do over and over again on the forums.

I don't know what it's like from a vendors standpoint though, I'm sure there are good reasons. I could see requiring it for newer members with few purchases, but established members may shy away and go with another vendor.

you'd definitely get a lot less freaked out people wondering where their stuff was if their money was safe(ish) in escrow...just saying.

Escrow is what makes SR such an awesome marketplace, everyone should use it always :)
But it's easy for me to say that, most of my products are low value compared to ounces of weed.

Personally I was really looking forward to being able to use escrow with you after 5 transactions but I realized just recently that has been removed from your profile and that you require even long time repeat customers to FE now. So that kind of a bummer.

Anyways, yes you should use escrow and I think it will lead to a much less stressful relationship between you and your customers.
