Would taking photos of ready to send orders help to solve (a bit) non-arrival disputes?

At least, it would act as a partial (read 'plausible deniability'), i.e.: no tracking, for small-ish orders, taking and storing for three weeks a photo of a ready to send shipment with partially blurred out label, of course.

Surely, it's not a proof of a guarantee that the order was shipped but it's something more than just a vendor's word for it.

it could help but then youve got a load of pictures that should they fall into LE hands will be the difference between plausible denaibiltiy and sucking Bubbas dick

To much risk and not enough reward. Your probably brainstorming new ideas and I encourage you not to stop. We should all encourage creative people to post ideas and if we see flaws don't be a dick about it. All of these markets were new ideas once. It's better that they post the idea and we tell them why it's no good, than for them to just try it and fail.

Worst idea ever.

Mark shipped when its packed and make sure everyone knows that its shipped when it's marked shipped.

Fuck the scammers, don't give them more free shit

There would be the issue of proving you hadn't taken it ten minutes ago and saved their address. There's too many negatives and issues, and no real positives with this one, bud.

No. For the cost of a few packs of printer labels and a box of jiffy bags, you could easily knock out a hundred fake packages in an hour.

If a vendor is going to rip you off, whipping up some pictures ain't going to stop them. Won't even slow them down.

You want a guarantee? Use escrow.
