Title: I Propose a Group Buy! (In the right Section! lol)
Post by: RapidImprovement on September 21, 2011, 06:13 pm
PM I sent to SR himself,

I know now is one of your busiest times with all the survey responses and hate mail about the new commission rate so I understand if your response is delayed.

But, I propose a new SR feature. A Feature in which multiple SR members could trustfully send you large amounts of money for a group buys to invest in MASS amounts of M1, MXE, and other grey area drugs, maybe even into some local SR vendors. I know Modoki is getting 40 grams of S-Isomer K and I sure as hell wouldn't mind getting 20 grams at an agreeable rate!

Anyway, that is my proposition, and THANK YOU for your consideration!

yes i know the answer,and its rather simple, and it does not require any "trustworthy person" to hold onto the collected funds.

all you do is find people that want a group buy ,say 5 members, all you do then is contact the seller and tell him you want to buy a kilo of kryptonite,but just emphasize that he must make 5" special listings" for each member(which he will do without heistation considering you are buying a kilo)....each listing will contain the split amounts that each member has to pay...and then each member just proceeds just like any other order...if you get my drift...rather simples...

so in my opinion, a "Group Buy" section should be established on the forum,where members can congregate to discuss group buying...and form teams and shit

+1 Love the idea! MAD PROPS to you sir! Writing the e-mail as we speak!

I see some potential problems,

The money may need to come all at once, from 1 person. (Could be anyone really, preferably at LEAST a Sr. member AND esteemed seller with 100 + 5 star feedbacks.) So the listing Idea is a VERY good one. Purchase 0.01 BTC listings, and send the money OUT of escrow, cuz 12.5% is BULLSHIT and there's no reason it should be in escrow anyway considering the funds need to be released early for obvious reasons.

It may all need to be shipped to 1 person, in a state where M1 is legal (Not my state!)

It would be best if whoever got all the money, got all the orders too.

I volunteer Rook as a very eligible option!

Any other eligibles?

why would the money need to all come in at once from one person???and then delivering to a person house who then splits it....jeez thats alot trust you got to put in there...and the amount of drugs in the mail at once is alot...imagine how everyone would feel if shite gets siezed.

its simple,if everyone agrees to buy one of each of the sellers custom listings on a particular day,then theres no problem

it doesnt matter what time the funds come in during that day from each member,as long as its on that day.it would be the sellers responsibility to split the kilo of kryptonite between the members and send to each members address.just like normal orders.

either the seller puts the small work in to do that,or he gets no money.and if he has any brains he will do that bit of work.

From china supplier if orders are 5kg price is $1 per gram. For a 1kg price is around $2,7 per gram.
Investor has money for an purchase and goods are send from china supplier to investor where kryptonit is legal.
Pros is that kryptonite is pretty safe, no risk phrases and toxic substance.

yep, RedRocket is on it for sure.  I personally am not interested in this particular group buy, but the ideas he has put forth seem solid as can be.  Hope to see this put into action in the near future!

be wary. If you get popped it's conspiracy, and distribution. much bigger crimes than personal use wieght.

I worry with dealing with Modoki, are his opium not 5x market price? He also has several questionable feedback.
