Title: Do buyers need to make a profile?
Post by: strangelights on May 15, 2013, 03:27 am

So maybe this is a dumb question, but do buyers need to make any kind of profile?  Or are your stats all a seller needs to see about you?

I don't think it's a necessity, but I believe some vendors look at activity of buyers on here.

Hi Strangelights,

There are some great moderators and other contributors who will probably expand on this but to answer your question: No.

You can create an account, add bitcoins, and start spending.

Hi strangelights,

The only way you can get a 'profile' of any sort over on the main site is if you have purchased a vendor account; echoing the other answers, no, creating an account, depositing some Bitcoin and purchasing your item of choice is the way to go. :)

Please read the Buyer's Guide on the SR Wiki here:
