Hello.
I am sure that plenty of you vendors have met people that are taking us hostage and getting their stuff resend or a refund. If you are, then this feature will be the thing you are looking for.
Each buyer would have beside stats of buying, comments list. This way, if they are playing with us, we can do versus :) say no more to the scam that is going on. I hate when I see someone with nice statistics and he is telling me : "hey, its cut." "hey, I didnt want to post bad review so I contacted you first. its not what I ordered."
This mostly happens once for some time or when you get 1 negative comment, there will magically come a few more to try.
If we could put a note on users, they would think twice before they do that.
Thanks for reading. What do you think ? :)

I think that if they contact you first and you remain reasonable when dealing with them, their reactions will tell you if they're scamming you or not. But really, do you want to treat ALL complaints as scams? There are legitimate complaints and illegitimate ones. You should just work it out yourself. That's the rhetorical you, I'm suggesting that to all vendors.

of course not. but some of the complaints are so scammy. this should be stopped. when there is a scammer seller, he gets out of the run quick. this should be the same to the other side.

It is. Vendors have a private forum that, as far as I've heard, has a thread for scam-buyers. Admittedly, new vendors need to request access to this forum, but it is available. And when you get a scammy complaint... then it is probably a scam. Sure, you'll get some crappy feedback, but that can't be stopped. Just blacklist the buyer, list them on your profile as such, and go into the vendor forum to add them to the scam-list.

I agree with this suggestion!
I have run into these as well. One new user left a low rating with the comment "stuff was not effective." Never contacted me and did not reply to my message for 12 days. It was followed by several wanting there money back. The thing was, the original comment was on a product that I only sold a little of and may have been a problem. The other demands for money back were on different products that were not related to it but all of them pointed back to the original complaint.
Hell, One insisted that I return his bitcoin by sending it to his account before he finalized. Guess he found a way around the refund rating.
I chalked most of it up to the cost of doing business on SR. Guess you get scammed when you first start out.
It is. Vendors have a private forum that, as far as I've heard, has a thread for scam-buyers. Admittedly, new vendors need to request access to this forum, but it is available.

The issue here is that the Private vendor area is closed to new vendors with less than 150 sales as well as ones that do not sell "Illegal" items. This leaves new vendors and vendors selling gray market items out in the cold to be scammed by these buyers. My guess is that these buyers know that new vendors do not have access and use it to their advantage, staying under the radar.
I requested my access to the vendor area close to a month ago and still don't have access. So the whole "There is a private vendor area" is crap, especially for new vendors and established vendors who are not directly selling drugs.

I also requested to be recognized as a vendor over a month ago without any luck. I would love a way to leave some sort of feedback for a buyer. It would also be nice to be able to leave a comment within your seller feedback page to give you a rebuttal against whats written there.
So far I haven't received any bad feedback or scammers and I'm over 150 transactions in, never ask to FE, and have only turned away one customer...lucky?
