Title: Top Vendors / Seller Rankings
Post by: NotThatGuy on July 27, 2012, 07:36 am
I'm sure everyone has seen the  "ranked in the top xx% of sellers" on any vendor page. So my question is, is there any way to see all the sellers that are in the top 1%, top 5%, top 10% etc...  and also what is this ranking based on? I looked around the forums and wiki and I couldn't find anything so forgive me if this has already been covered but wouldn't everybody like to know who the top 1% are? yeah yeah Occupy Wall Street.....

There's nothing quite as satisfying as replying to your own post !  So far the only way I've discovered to figure out which seller's are highest ranked is to click on a certain category, such as drugs, and then use the drop down menu "sort by" on the top to select "seller rank". The results will then be sorted by sellers with the highest rank first etc....  As far as what the ranking is based on, my guess is that it is some formula heavily weighting feedback and moderately weighting the amount of transactions. I think this information is important because anyone who is top ranked will: 1. Most likely not scam you 2. Have great product and service. So to save you all some time I've compiled a list of the top 5% of vendors in the category Drugs. Also an observation on the list, there are 4 vendors in the top 1% and 6 vendors in the top 2% which strictly speaking should not be. However, it is probably the result of vendors being assigned a percentile rank and then rounding up or down. Whatever the case is, we can extrapolate from the fact that there are no more than 6 vendors in a percentile that there are no more than 600 vendors for drugs on the Silk Road. I'm a little tired and feel like I've made a mistake with the math so feel free to correct. Here's the list:
