No! How dare you insult my new-found friend!!   ;D

Have you considered Blue Sky Traders?  Top notch in my opinion.

I just can't figure out why you guys use BTC in is the most biggest pain in the ass ever and you have to give somebody 5 to 8% of your money just so you can spend your money I just don't get this.

and all y'all are under the delusion that this is anonymous while there are many others sample were ways that you don't have to pay 5 to 8% of your money why doesn't everybody just use money packs with the anonymous credit cards that you can buy any Walmart.

This is what the guys I buy my weed from on here use

they quit using the BTC system about three months ago because they said they were losing money and it was just a big gigantic pain in the ass.
hell read the forms therefore people getting ripped off are paying as much as 10% to get your BTC that is $50 for every 500 really I just don't get it  hell even at 5% that's 25 bucks    Fuck that

BTCs are not perfect, but for the purposes of a concept like Silk Road they work pretty well. The most important thing here is maintaining anonymity, and BTCs go a long way in doing that. If you're buying weed from people here and not using Bitcoins (ie. doing transactions through the forums, not utilizing escrow, etc.) then you're not using Silk Road as it is intended to be used. We pay extra for the privilege of using a site that makes buying illegal substances as safe and anonymous as is humanly and technologically possible. For a lot of us whose lives would be very negatively affected by a drug-related criminal record (like working professionals, upstanding members of our local communities), paying this premium is well worth it. If this isn't important to you then that's your choice, but people here have many good reasons for using BTCs and the SR system.

Yeah Xanadu...you're not going to get anyone willing to give you enough BTCs to be able to buy anything substantial...the only real reason people will ask for BTCs on the boards is if they're just a little bit short of what they need for a purchase, and people are usually willing to help out. If you don't have the money right now for what you want, wait until you do and then buy your own BTCs. You're not going to get anywhere by just outright begging, especially if you're a newbie who hasn't contributed anything to the forum and has no reputation.

Good luck.

escrow is the reason money. Paks don't go into escrow so u need to use bitcoin to be safe

that makes Very good sense and if I were buying from multiple vendors I would agree with you that this is a good system but I'm a creature of habit and a savvy shopper so I like to have one or two vendors these guys are the equivalent of three or four vendors.

I'm with you on the security I have a family a good job, getting arrested for drugs would not be good in any fashion shape or form for me or anybody.

this is why I am comfortable with the way they do their business they use torchat I have researched this program and it is impossible to hack trace eavesdrop or intercept text to text messages using this program if you look at it it's the same concept as PGP the only differences you don't have to learn how to use PGP or install it onto your hard drive keep the key have an account on a anonymous website all of those students seems not as secure as everybody thinks the police  know what PGP is and what it is used for on silk road and they have a large hard on for both if they find any hint of this in your residence on your personal computers they will use it as evidence.

Even in a worst case scenario  say your vendor isn't so due diligence and doesn't follow the proper process of deleting your address or PGP key and is busted and the authorities find this computer with the undeleted or improperly deleted ordering information and links to silk road etc. etc. etc... And just for your information this has happened before it is why I do not buy off silk road anymore.

now let's look at Tor chat  only you and the other person that you connect with can see what is being said in chat window once you close that chat window the data "i.e. text" is gone permanently forever unretrievable by anybody EVER. this is not something they made up or something I am a making up it is something you can very easily do a search on "Google" and find out for your self.

even the FBI has a memo out on it basically saying their hands are tied And do not know what to do.

I personally feel there system works better because there is no e-mailing of PGP or anything of any kind to anything.
everything is taken care of in one place at one time between you and the vendor which they have two safety check system's that they use torchat is one of them and I'm not allowed to talk about the second one.

But I can say That the second security check system enables both you as the buyer and them as the seller to identify one another 100% so every time I purchase my weed I'm not guessing who I am buying from I know exactly who I am buying my Wead from every time and they know exactly who they are selling their product to every time.         (and of course no not my real name my fake nickname)

I can never say that about silk road every time I'm purchasing something I am taking a risk

with these guys I feel the risk is a lot less and as for receiving the package I have never once had a vendor from silk road go through so much trouble to explain to me the proper procedure for receiving a package with a 100% no possibility of an arrest in case of a controlled delivery.I mean they would not even take my first order until I was well versed on this procedure. You get a real feeling they care more about your security first then your money.

I love silk road I have friends on here I think what silk road stands for is phenomenal and I back it 100% but when it comes to my security I'm the one who makes this decision and I truly fill I've made the right one.

plus there weed is just dank and and some of the lowest prices on silk road not the Lowest but close and I get what I pay for every time.

just my personal opinion
