I made my first purchases on the sheepmarketplace before it was all found to be a scam. Since then I got rid of the computer I used for dark net stuff so I lost all of the pgp keys I had and such. I also stopped following what was going on with the rest of the marketplaces cause it seemed like a crap shoot whether you would get scammed or not.
I am looking for Bungee54, I saw some other posts on this sub that said the account changed hands and its not really the same crew. Is this true? Can someone give me a quick update on the market situation? What is the most reliable market currently? What to avoid? etc...
Last I heard, the Bungee54 account had most likely changed hands. If you are still looking for him, I believe he is still on SR2 (proceed with caution).
Right now there are some breakaway markets that are looking real nice. Agora has the largest number of listings, but they have been under DOS attack for the last few weeks so they are down pretty often. I believe Pandora would be a close second in regard to number of listings. I haven't used it much but I know there are plenty of people on here using it. Then you have BlueSky Marketplace, which seems like a very easy to use site, but it still doesn't have many vendors.
If you are looking for a more secure site with MultiSig escrow, then you should check out: TorEscrow, BlackBank, and TMP. None of them have many listings yet but they seem to put security as there number one priority.
All of them are on the sidebar, so feel free to check them out and see which ones you fancy.
Good luck and stay safe!
