Alphabay versus Dream Market

I see a lot more vendor reviews, post about, scams, bust, etc. About Alphabay. I almost never see anything mentioning or any vendor reviews of Dream Market.

Is there any reason for this?

I have never purchases from either but I am tempted to make some orders soon and wants some more info. I also wanted to know if you guys know any vendors to look out for. (I am probably going to order off of Dream Market so specifics on that would be helpful)

They're both good, but Dream has more sketchy vendors. Although Alphabay is pretty sketchy too with shitty mods. (Ie Bigmuscles) The Admins at dream favor buyers (Hell yeah fuck vendors they scum)

as a vendor I prefer alphabay, just because dream has a nazi moderator that refunds buyers for all disputes. I guess if you are a buyer that might be a plus, but ive put up my prices on that market to compensate, and also moved customers to other markets

Just pick a good vendor and use whatever market they are on

AB has that rep but mostly bc there is more traffic on AB. Find a reputable vendor on AB, do you research, and stick with that vendor.

Here is my pros and cons, as I have made many, many orders from each. I started out with dream.

Dream is great. No problems ever. They have an easier ordering system IMO than AB. Also you get to CANCEL your order if the vendor doesn't accept it!! That's a HUGE plus!!! It's also a bit more laid back than the other markts.

AB is great cause you have about 5 thousand more vendors offering more shit. Heres the problem; let's say you put in an order, and the vendor doesn't respond or won't accept it. You have to WAIT something like 32-76 hours before you get your BTC back. You have no option to cancel. So basically your coin is stuck for days until it auto-rejects.

I've been scammed on Dream, but not on AB, so it doesn't really matter where you go, scamming is scamming. Now as far as AB staff goes and all the rumors/fud/shit i hear about AB staff stealing bitcoin, I can't say. Never had that problem.

EDIT: I've dealt with Dream support and they were friendly and patient with me being a dumbass.

For your first order I recommend Dream. Way more user friendly. Less vendors, but oh well. You're bound to find something. Good luck!

I got scammed on both so my fault I guess, Hansa is where it's at, love the interface and the fact that you only deposit once you place an order is awesome.
