HI SR....
To the point: My challenge is that I can and will provide bulk orders of 50/100 lots and could go higher. My challenge is that I dont think I could just send it out without a finalize early until relationship established. BUT SR says if I do that, I am bad and get cancelled. BUT...I dont also want to send out a bulk order and never get paid either. That aint fair.
What would you do? Or how should it be done?
Any thoughts are appreciated. (And btw...the product is like constant...I will always have it).

Start small.

With Escrow the buyers are forced to pay you. Just ship with DCN and then they will never be able to dispute because you will have strong evidence they received your product.
You also could start vending small until you get comfortable then move up to big bulk orders. This is also smart because the bulk buyers won't want to buy from you unless they know you have a solid product.

best do what the man says, i wouldn't finalize early.

Until you have 35 transactions and one month membership, just say in your profile that you don't fill orders from people with less than x transactions and y$ spent and cancel orders from people not respecting the profile set by you.
And consider EzzeeKs suggestion, start small. Why should anybody place large orders with you AND finalise early?
And what's so bad about staying in escrow? It doesn't mean that you won't get your coins, it just means that in case of conflicts neither you nor your customer decides but the silkroad admins. As long as things go ok, which they should, there is no damage done to you by staying in escrow.

Worst case scenario is both vendor and member lose 50% of their investment.
That is as fair as it gets with anonymous drug vending.

its up to the SR staff to decide how to resolve a case, the buyer just can't say I didn't get it and get 100% without question.
if you have proof of delivery you get paid in full, otherwise you'll likely get atleast 50%. unless all of your orders just happen to not show up.
if you are really worried only deal with buyer accounts that have at least $1000 in transactions
there are vendors that currently have over 10k in escrow on the system now, and they can do it. without escrow the buyer is totally fucked, with escrow if you are not a scam, your worst case is 50%
so what exactly makes you special here ? that you are trying to scam people?

Thank you all for your replies. Just trying to understand my risk if sell a bulk order and some dude tries to day he never got it when I know dam well he did.
DWARFSEEKER...no. Not a scamming at all. In fact, I am very legit. I was beginning two months ago small sending samples which I provided links to for those that received them. But life got in my way and now I am back.
And with all things...the getting in my way thing also opened a door to unlimited quantify of norcos and vicodins so just trying to get back into the biz but really dont want to just do onesy and twosey....have too much stock for that.
Anyways...that was my thinking. I guess I'll post stock...then start a thread for sending out some samples again to those who will post about the product.
Anyways....to all, thank you. I am a good standing member of SR and want to stay that way...thus my reason coming to the community to ensure I stay on track.
Thanx
