Outlaw Market - How to Order

Hello r/darknetmarkets,

For those of you that have tried us already you might have noticed that orders are made in a different way than in other markets. The following post that can also be found on our forums explains how the order process works. Thank you for reading. Please let us know what you think.

*This thread explains the order procedures. Vendors coming from other markets, please READ.

Important: Our order procedures are optimized for SECURITY and ANTI-theft, ANTI-scam and phishing proof.

Unfortunately, this means less user friendlyness. It would be very user friendly is people could walk into an airplane straight on. But it would not be secure, and when security matters, things become more complex. But, once understood, our system is EASY and FAST for both, vendors and buyers!

1st step: The customer orders and receives a BTC-address to transfer the money to. Our system is moire like amazon than like ebay: The user can order form different vendors as many products as they want to and pay to ONEBTC address for the complete order. => NO online accounts that must be funded prior to payment, but direct payment for the order!

2nd step: the customer's money arrives in our escrow. The vendor(s) are notified about the orders being paid for by the customer. => now the vendor(s) shall ACCEPT the order(s). They have 3 days to do so. The fast it is done, the better. To accept the order, the vendor must ENTER HIS BTC-address and click on accept. In case that he cannot deliver the product, he shall contact the customer and offer something similar. And he shall put the products on (temp)pause so people cannot order what can't be deliviered. In case nothing similar can be sipped, the vendor must cancel the order. ===> when the order is accepted by the vendor, he shall make it ready for shipment and ship it. The shipment must take place 2 days after the order was accepted!

3rd step: As soon as the order is shipped, the vendor confirms the shipping, by entering his username and click on SHIPPED. After this step, the vendor's job is DONE.

4th step: the customer confirms arrival. In case that the order does not arrive within usual shipping time, the customer shall contact the admin and inform about the order not having arrived. He shall contact the vendor as well to ask in what way the order was shipped and when he shall expect arrival.

===> be aware that after twice the usual shipping time passed and the customer has not connected back to the shop, the software assumes the arrival of the order and finishes the order process.

If necessary, there is a 5th step: the admin marks a shipment as lost.

Notes: 1. Vendors be aware: the shipping time is calculated from the moment the payment arrived until the customer confirms arrival - but only when the customer confirms the day of arrival as well. If customers miss to confirm the day of arrival, the shipping time is not calculated! 2. ALL payments that are sent to people by the shop are mixed and will be sent a random time after they are due, usually up to 5 hours afterwards.

Payment-procedure:

The complete payment from the customer starts the order process. => the customer MUST PAY AT LEAST what he is due on the checkout-invoice. He can pay more and will receive change send back. If the customer pays less than what is due, and be it just 0.000001 BTC less, the orderprocess is NOT STARTED and the shop waits on the payment of the missing amount TO THE SAME BTC-address as the first part was sent to. ==> In case that the payment is not fully received within 24 hours, the order is cancelled and the BTC paid so far are returned.

The order-process begins with the amount due being fully paid to our escrow.

The pay/back of the deposit to the customer takes place when he confirms arrival of the shipment or the admin confirms the loss when the customer informs the admin in time about the order having not arrived.

The payout of the possible provisions takes place at the same time as the vendor is payed.

The payment to the vendor takes out between the moment he confirms that he has shipped the order (fastest) and released by an admin after confirmation of the arrival by the customer (latest). The exact time is calculated by the shop and can be set by the admins for vendors with high reputation or low reputation. The time is calculated the way, the customers are protected against scam by new vendors and vendors against scam by the customers. Usually, the vendor has to log in later then 24 hours after the payment has been released, for the shop to automatically transfer it to the given (2nd step) BTC address of the vendor.

The procedure is optimized for MAXIMUM security for vendors and customers alike.

More explanations for the single steps will follow.*
