There is a discussion on DNMA about creating a vendor directory or a marketplace/directory hybrid if another market goes down. http://avengersdutyk3xf.onion/index.php?topic=579.0 I created this post to gather information about what DNM users want to see next.
[OPTION 1] Vendor Directory. <link removed>
[OPTION 2] Vendor Directory / Marketplace Hybrid. http://thearkkrmmaa6tbl.onion/directory.php
Option 2 is about leaving the contact address of the vendor on the website so the customer can contact the vendor anytime. With this option, a link is made to a review page on DNMA/Reddit/TheHub/Nulled. The vendor is able to let customers know what they are offering, if they accept directs deals or escrow services and if they allow contact over DN markets or alternative ways.
Question 1: Vet and verify the vendor before we add it to the directory? If so, what are the requirements? or just add the vendor and place a link to a review page?
Question 2: Force vendors to use a specific communication method? Like TorBox or XMPP? Or just let them self decide what kind of method they prefer to use?
Question 3: Added a new column named ''Alert''. Should we list scammers or not?
Question 4: Most important question of all. Do we need a website like this? Is it useful?
Start the discussion and let me know what you guys think.
Update! By receiving opinions from people I decided to go for option 2.
*Edit! Directory temporary offline, updating to Tor v3.
This is the only thing that has always been needed lol. a vendor directory where you can choose to dd or locate on market or alt escrow service ect. where is the link? i want to check this out. I bet vendors would even pay a small amount to remain listed.
