Hello all, I just have to say that I am excited. I have an order in transit and 2 more processing, and I just want to express how excited I am to be a part of this place.
I remember back in 1999 when I took my first tab, and I laid out on the ground in an outdoor party. Later I met some people who became some of my best party friends. I took a lot of psychedelics. At home, out of the house, with friends, by my self. I started guiding many of my friends through their first trip. I loved that life, but sure enough 'real life' took over. income, salary, taxes, credit cards, BILLS. ugh.
My main stay from that time is mj. I smoke all the time, vaporizing lately. Moving around the country has made it very difficult to find the quality and quantity of stuff that my heart really desires. I heard about SR a while ago and wanted to give the market place some time to mature. I came back recently and was so happy it was still thriving.
Then I took some time to understand bitcoin. Holy. Shit. A universal, borderless, digital currency that has no affiliation to a sovereign nation. Put together by Satoshi Nakamoto, and nobody even knows who he is.
This whole thing reminds me of a sci-fi story I would write. It is close to my heart. I am happy to be here and just wanted to spread good vibes out to everyone! Love you all.

Hey man! Welcome!
Your story mirrors my own almost exactly.
Happy SRing, it's a wonderland.

Right on man :D Welcome to the road!
A few tips, never FE, never let an order auto finalize, never beg for BTC (you could under certain circumstances, but better just not to)
always remember to leave feedback, & update it if necessary, always follow buyers etiquette, there's probably more but I'm too high to remember.

VERY good points! I was too high earlier to point out even those, so kudos :D

Yea I'm here because I moved across the country and lost all my connects. I heard about this place a while ago but didn't ever think I would use it until a month ago. I'm still pretty new to this site also and I'm excited to be here too.
I received a package yesterday and have one more in transit right now. I'm high as fuck and loving it. Welcome to the SR!
Some advice to heed, never buy bitcoins through members of the forum or vendors. Read the scam threads for more on that.

I don't know if that's entirely true. My first transaction on SR was with a BTC vendor and it went swimmingly. Just watch their feedback and message them before you buy so you know when they're online to exchange. (I did moneypak)
Of course now I don't need to buy BTC but when I was still new, that was the only option to buy that I felt comfortable with.

Yea I guess that's true, I just read tons of negative stories about people getting ripped off buying from vendors and member of SR. You got a point, just do your hw and be careful.

thanks everyone! and thanks for the tips. Can't wait to get my first package.
