Whats the deal with direct dealing?

I'm a low time buyer probably about £20 a month on the DNMs. Some bud, some molly some acid.

Always from the same two vendors. Some times I end up with a a few mBTC in a DNM account and I burn bridges or forget my password blah blah blah.

Basically, I trust the vendors as much if not more than the DNMs but the last few times I've tried to approach for a direct deal I get no where.

How do you go about it? I can't see why vendors wouldn't be interested in direct dealing. Send me a BTC address, I send you BTC and a PGP address you post the stuff to me.

No vendor bond, no DNM commission.

As a aside: Does saint_symbiosis have a direct deal site or email?

[2 Points] None:

You need to find a vendor that's willing to do so and email them off the market.

It's easier if you have done business with them before, but not required.

I don't trust the vendors more than the markets though, there are bad apple vendors and we all know how markets can go. I trust no one. If possible I'll always FE, even if I have to pay a few bucks more. Risk v Reward is just not there. DD is the ultimate FE, and you can be ripped off with literally zero effort.

Do your research first.

I did two direct deals starting up again before I even had a single sale on a market, somehow. I never complain if people want to hand me money in a more convenient way for me. But it's different per vending person. If you're not used to doing them, and you have an established system of managing and keep tracking of orders on markets and are high volume, it could be seen as sort of a pain in the ass to have to now break the flow, I suppose.

Shoot 'em a message or emaill and ask. I always give a new vendor my story, got fucked by a marketplace, don't need that shit happening again, direct deal? If they say yes, I send 'em coin, and a PGP message with all the relevant information. If not, I find another vendor and repeat until I have drugs in my mailbox.
