Title: Silk Road is a miracle
Post by: You Enjoy Myself on July 11, 2013, 07:37 am
You are buying drugs through the mail on the internet. It's an amazing experience and don't ever forget it. A lot of people are starting to take this place for granted

It's a wonderful look at how technology and intelligent people can come together and sort out their own way around LE :P

I am very nervous for my first transaction. I've been reading for years about SR and now I'm ready to use it once I get to a 50 count. I just hope everything goes smoothly.

I've been involved in the underground internet drug-buying scene for years, and it's amazing to have it all open and in one big marketplace like this, rather than being uber secretive and invite-only. the escrow system and feedback and reviews and forums and all, it is all just amazing and wonderful. i hope it lasts until this ridiculous, enemy-less "war on drugs" dies out.

As long as everything goes smoothly, I'll be sticking around for a while. I don't like connecting with random people on the street to find what I need. This way seems a lot more safe and the fact that it incorporates a review system makes it that much better.

Yes, this absurd 'war on the drugs'

I'm just glad I'm not from the US.
Here, it's ignorant and silly but doesn't appear as venomous or debilitating (to the user - criminalization)...

Ya, we're all part of history. Whenever future generations study the history of the Internet or the history of the black market, SR will have to have a prominent place in the discussion. Let us all be on guard against complacency.

I found a job on the silk road, and I'm utterly thankful for it. I've gotten more joy than I could possibly say, from this website.

It is a miracle and i appreciate it as much as when i found it nearly 2 years ago. Much love to DPR and all the people involved in its creation and upkeep.  I've found some vendors on here i really consider to be my friend for the way they help me out and treat me. During this bitcoin shit with Bitinstant going on i had a vendor who knew how desperate i was offer to have me deposit to his friends account through a Bank of America if i was out of options so i could get my coins and buy my much needed pills from him. I found another way but i really appreciated that. I FE for this guy and this guy only because of all the exceptions, custom listings for me, and times he has shared from his personal stash when he wasn't selling to help me out. I may not know the guy personally but i feel a friendship bond from all those times he helped me.

I hope it sticks around for a long time. I've only been here shortly, but I'm very happy there is a platform like this. I don't like the idea of buying 'on the street' at all! I also hope that the heads of SR don't lose track of what they initially wanted. Keep running a tight ship, don't get greedy and this place will only flourish.

Stay safe everyone and enjoy life!

If you have read Atlas Shrugged, you know "Who is John Galt?".

 Ayn Rand would be delighted and extraordinarily pleased with the SR. This collaborative effort, not altruistic, self serving, anarchist utopia being created right now is her dream realized. This experiment in truly free trade, demonstrates that humanity does not have to pander to the lowest common denominator, that is is an active choice to either sabotage your fellow humans or cooperate so everybody wins.

I am just glad that I am alive now, and I count myself very fortunate to have found the SR.

I've been lurking here for about 2 weeks using the search function to gather information to understand PGP, bitcoins, TAILS and how these things play into the big picture. The forums are an amazing resource and without them I probably would have had to work a lot harder and been a lot more confused.

About to make my first purchases soon- excited but also nervous as fuck.

This place truly is amazing and I've only been here a VERY short amount of time but am extremely grateful for such a service!

Just be sure you learn to use pgp!

Why? Sellers should delete messages as soon as they don't need them anymore. So should you. And shipping information isn't stored after the product is shipped. PGP sounds to me like something people use to feel more secure without actually being that much safer. It makes slightly more sense if you live in the US, where the war on drugs is taken as seriously as it is.

Because it's almost no effort! There are so many nifty PGP programs out there, with keychains and everything working at the press of a button. For the little amount of effort it is, you're crazy to not do it.

These are enlightened times certainly, it is exciting to be a part of, I just hope people don't get to greedy and the team at SR keep running a tight ship to 'keep it on air'. I'm glad I found it, it has renewed my faith in humanity slightly!

I've had to move around a lot and losing good connections. When I was young, I had long hair and would always find connections. As I got older, the long hair didn't look good on me anymore. But finding connections got a lot harder to find. Found out about this site, and I can now get things I haven't seen in years. I feel young again!

Poor soul, you don't need 50 post's to buy anything, lol you can buy something straight away, You might be asked to F/E but look and you will find a decent vendor.
%0 post's refers to the threads on which you can post in.

SR really is wonderful. I've only made a few purchases so far but they've all been great.
I once read a quote, "Born to late to explore the world, born too early to explore the universe, but born at just the right time to buy drugs off the internet."

I am a month or so away from my first order so I would like to thank the helpful folks here for coming in and posting reviews and FAQ's. Both vendors and buyers. It keeps us as safe from getting scammed and fucked as is possible here.

And to the rest of you, fuck you!

Completely. I had heard about the road ~1 year ago but always wrote it off as stupid, dangerous, and mainly very very scary. I have found some of the most helpful people while dealing here. Without putting any serious thought to the idea of the road, one assumes it is a place full of crooks and criminals looking to make quick money. Fortunately, I have found quite the opposite (ofc sticking to reputable vendors and the like) and am incredibly pleased. As long as we patrons of the road do not sell out for quick cash, or scam, or anything of that order. We can keep this place going string! Long live SilkRoad

Great quote, has a lot of truth to it in it's own way.

I've made less than a dozen SR transactions and they've all been trouble free. None of them needed FE. It was definitely worth spending the extra time needed to carefully read the SR feedback for both the product and the vendor, as well as checking out the info here on the forums. It's great that I can now get hold of drugs which were previously unavailable, but more importantly SR gives me access to high quality products. Some stuff still awaits testing, but at least two of the items are the cleanest I've come across for years. What's the point of snorting bucketfulls of local powders cut 100:1 (or more) which have little effect other than nose damage? Paying 20 times the price for 100 times the quality is a no-brainer.

SR is a miracle!  it just came through with flying colors for me and i couldn't be happier!!  as a first time buyer the nerves were definitely piqued but the friendliness of the vendors, the open levels of communication and the wealth of knowledge and reassurance that is the forums really helps keep those nerves in check.  SR just made my life soooooooooooooo much easier.

Never become complacent in your game.  ALWAYS ENCRYPT!  Tell your vendors to ask for encryption if they don't already.  TUMBLE THEM COINS!

SR is wonderful.  It's a catchy name, wonderful vendors, great customers, and no one can get their grubby paws on it.

I love it.

Praise be to the anonymous and truly free marketplace!

Long live SR!
