Figured I would post this here before the listing goes up in the main section. Come to your own conclusions but I smell bullshit

If I remember correctly, selling a vendor account is allowed, but yeah, I wouldn't buy it from him...
EDIT: Talked to him via pm for awhile. Changed my mind lol, actually considering buying this off of him in the couple days.

You know, it really wasn't necessary to do this. There's a thread that the vendor is advertising this in already and you already complained and said he was a scammer.

Finally hit 50!
Ok so I just came to say, I can see why Swimfan has jumped to conclusions and honestly, I am happy to see this community look after each other.
If anybody does want this vendor account that I have no use for for then pm me and we will work out a way to keep everything safe (Possibly use a payed for middle man?).

I forgot to mention, once the account gets over $1,500 sold, it will be eligible to get the 4.8btc (or so) bond back.

I would like to apologize to you TeamGB for my rum fueled tirade. I have a tendency to be grandiose when I drink and I was very belligerent. Anyone who can stay cool, calm, and collected while dealing with an asshole like me shouldn't be selling their vendor account, they should keep it because we need more people like that here.
You are right CannabisCrusader in the fact that people are free to sell their vendor accounts here and I fully supported this when I first saw the thread. The account was created 2 months ago and there were 0 stats so everything looked legit. Heck, for the price it was being sold at, it was a steal. And this is where the huge red flags started to go up. All of a sudden, in a matter of an hour, the account mysteriously had 1 transaction associated with it where there had been none before. Also, the listing to sell the account was still there. It is very rare that a listing goes up and has a sale in that short of a time. In my mind this could only mean 2 things. The first being the account was sold already, the buyer finalized, and then things weren't turned over and the listing was put back up. TeamGB even said in their other post that they have other accounts. Using one of the other seller accounts would have provided full escrow and this point wouldn't exist. The second thing it could be was the seller posting fake transactions which could later get the account banned like Bruce's did a couple of days ago.
The reason I posted this thread cyberscour was because I didn't see the other thread while browsing the recent unread posts and TeamGB looked like they were trying to get to 50 posts so they could post in the main section. I wanted to make sure people were aware of everything involved before they potentially made a mistake.
I hope I am wrong in my assumptions for the sake of TeamGB and the person who buys this.

You have nothing to apologize for. That's exactly how we keep each other safe here...
I've parted with that account and I think the new owner will be using it way better than I did!
Looks like they're Herbalists :D
Anyway I was tripping bawls when all of that other stuff was being posted, maybe that made me more suspicious haha!
Peace guys and stay safe!
