Title: Change of the Guard
Post by: fartsinthewind on May 12, 2012, 06:41 pm
As a SR member for well over a year now, I cannot help but notice that vendors come and go in waves. It seems like every 2-3 months, a new class of top-notch vendors gets established in the various drug categories, but then they are gone just as soon. I don't care to name specific vendors, but it seems like especially in Benzos, Opiates, and Ecstasy categories (the ones i frequent most often for purchasing) there seems to be a new class of vendors every few months. I can only name two vendors off the top of my head that are still offering product that were here when I first traveled the road over a year ago.

I'm wondering why this is. Surely they aren't setting up new sellers accounts. I'm not suspecting LE involvement, as sellers should be the hardest to target and pinpoint on SR.

Just wondering if anybody else has had these same observations.

I think the Captain referred to this as "vendor churn".

I noted it myself.. and am taking pains to start slow and gradual, so as not to get overwhelmed. I'd like to be here enjoying the people and the profits for a long time.
