I have a vendor which used to have escrow enable on his listing. Recently, he removed this option. Should I fear an exit scam? Or is it a good reason for a vendor to do that?

Vendor don't offer escrow anymore

After being exit scammed on TR and Aero, plus having hansa shut down, for a while I have considered doing just FE listings. I dont think it's a sign that a vendor is going to exit scam. But as always you need be careful and review the vendor you plan on doing business with before making a buy.
This means due diligence. Some vendors are great for years then scam. I personally still use escrow on all the sites I use. If I was going to use FE, I would make it so that I offer both listings. There is no reason any vendor who has FE cannot do both. If it's something that really concerns you just ask the vendor to offer escrow listings too.

Dream has been a bit... iffy lately...vendors are appearing disabled without thm knowing and listings are disappearing. Id stay away from dream rn

There's a very good reason for only accepting FE. Dream isn't stable for vendors and crypto prices aren't either. Now there are many vendors who have used FE to exit scam. So proceed with caution. There are a few vendors I FE on, but only because I have done multiple orders with them and trust them. I would NEVER FE on someone new.

Chances are, there are other vendors who sell your drug of choice w/escrow. I'd recommend looking elsewhere. I'm not implying that your vendor of choice is setting-up for some shady moves...just that I probably wouldn't do any mid-to-large orders with him. Same advice goes for all orders (even escrow): Don't spend what you can't afford to lose.

Ask the vendor if they'll do a Escrow order for the same price. They might charge you more though.

syndicate_x taught me this lesson unfortunately....
It's entirely up to you, but if you get scammed don't act surprised.
