SR vendors, please speculate as well!
-
They are of the highest ethics and morals and would never do anything like this.
Don't forget to FE.
-
1. Site has gotten too big too fast
2. As such vendors cant deal to all the customers with the current escrow system and must request FE from buyers.
3. Tens of thousands of buyers + anonymous payment system + hundreds of buyers willing to FE makes it too enticing to stop actually working/shipping and risking being a vendor and scams start

what is there to be said,
In all honesty I think most vendors come on here with the intentions of trying something different, as businessmen (and women) I am sure that this is just another business venture,
however, when your dropping 10-20 packages off a day at different mailboxes everyday, 3 months later alot of questions come to play and as the above poster said, there have been to many vendorsand to many people who have already done the FE and leave scheme, it just seems like the thing to do when you are planning to leave SR, sadly we have no idea when that is

I'm a vendor but not dragging my name through the Tony76 drama.
Every vendor knows it takes a lot of prep and care to run a sustainable mail order op you can't dump 200 packs a day around the city and cash Pablo Escobar amounts of bitcoins per week without somebody noticing. I think he probably did want to send everything out and become kingpin of drug deepnet then either he was ripped trying to cash out, ripped trying to pickup kilos of product, or just decided fuck it this is too much work and risk doing up hundreds of shipments that will all be reported late so I'll just make another account and keep the money. If it was a well orchestrated scam why didn't he draw it out even longer it would've been possible to scam more for weeks until SR locked the withdraws from the account.
I don't even trust the people and labs I buy off with more than a few thousand. Max I would give them is $5k and I'm not dealing in cocaine which is entirely gangster run in Canada and dangerous to buy. I'm sure if I showed up with $40k in cash they would probably just rob me, I'm not connected or have a crew backing me. Gangsters don't think long term they just see an opporunity and take it not giving a fuck. Same thing could've happened to Tony and he just kept the remainder and quit since he was unable to cover the losses. I could've easily sold $800 ounces of MDMA during 4/20 but would have to keep it sustainable so if something happens I can recover. What if the guy I send to pick it up runs off never to be seen again, or what if he's busted and I lose all the dope? I doubt Tony was busted in Canada it's much more feasible he was ripped by his own supply chain or whatever anonymous bitcoin cashier he used so just went scam and started again with a new account.
Too dangerous trying to be Scarface it always ends the same way, you in jail or dead. Fly under the radar of everybody and you may win the game. Carding game is the same thing. You can cash $30k a month and live easy or you can cash millions and risk everything. THUGGIN
