Shipping / Re: Are P.O. Boxes more risky than a home address?
« on: August 15, 2013, 09:58 pm »
So in answering my question, "Are PO Boxes more risk than a home address?"
You're pretty much saying that one is neither more risky than the other. Simply walking into a PO to retrieve my mail adds no more risk than walking out to the end of your driveway and getting it out of your mailbox?

An addy is an addy.

I assume if I was under that much surveillance that they would find some way to get me, if they really wanted to. Regardless of where I picked up my mail.

This is the point that I try to get across to my friend, that I am not putting myself at any more risk simply because there is a camera watching my mailbox. I highly doubt the cameras in my post office even work anymore.

Thank you for your replies.

In all honesty I could not say if a PO box is more risky than ordering to your home, in the eyes of the law they would probably be viewed precisely the same. My unqualified subjective assumption though would be a PO box is more risky given the chances of someone inadvertently sending you drugs in the mail would be exponentially less to a PO box than your home address if you were put into a situation where you had to deny all knowledge. When you combine that with the CCTV issue not being a factor at home if you really had to go that route then I'd use the home address over a PO box registered in your real credentials.

But again, both those options are fr from desirable, get an anonymous drop arrangement.

I suggest you have a thorough read of the SR wiki and then post back if you still have any unanswered questions, here is the link to get you started:

If you are ordering to your own home or PO box using your real name you need a reality check anyway. Personally I wouldn't do either of those things and it would be just as easy to make you come in and sign for something at the post office and catch you on CCTV as it would to have you sign for a delivery at home, either that or just kick your front door in a few minutes after you take the post inside.

If you open a PO box do it anonymously, yes that raises the stakes but it also severs the link between you and the box, if you are not doing that why even bother ordering to a PO box? just order it to your home, at least you may have some more plausible deniability, well so some people think anyway.

Having drugs sent to your home address is madness IMHO, especially if you are ordering from overseas when you consider the additional trafficking charges you can tag on to the list you will be facing if it goes tits up. I get finding safe anonymous drops is not easy but if you cannot navigate this place safely then you really shouldn't be using SR at all, what price would you put on your liberty or a criminal record that will fuck you for life.

Everything we do here is risk versus reward and the stakes are quite high for fucking it up so it pays to be very careful when considering your options.

Are you suggesting I open a fake PO box under fake docs?

The only place that I know to get 2 forms of fake id would be SR.
From what I've been told, it wouldn't be smart to use the fakes off this site to open up a box, as they are not of high quality.


What I said was if you are going to open a PO box there is little point unless you are going to do it anonymously otherwise there is no discernible gains to be had over ordering to your home address if you are using your real credentials.

Personally I would do neither of those things, I would invest the time into securing some safe anonymous drops that are not linked to you.

If you decide to go the PO box route then yes you would need fake docs which as a I also said raises the stakes given the penalties for doing that if caught.

Please refer to the sticky thread in the customer support board for the links to the SR wiki that cover pass phrase resets.

Basically you just need to do as Wadozo said and submit a customer support ticket to SR support including the SR BTC wallet address you used to fund the account you have lost access to.

Technical support / Re: Question about SR Commissions
« on: August 15, 2013, 09:06 pm »
Please refer to the sellers guide: https://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion.to/wiki/index.php?title=Seller%27s_Guide#Pricing_and_commission

Pricing and commission

You may peg the price of your listings to any of the currencies supported by Silk Road. All sales are settled in Bitcoins however, so if you peg to a currency other than Bitcoin, the final Bitcoin price of your item will fluctuate based on the exchange rate between Bitcoin and your peg currency.

You may also choose whether to set your price before or after commission is added. If you choose "pre-commission pricing", the price you set will be the amount of money you are paid when a transaction is complete, but your customers will see a higher price that includes the commission. If you choose "post-commission pricing", you set the price that your customers pay. When you get paid, the amount you receive will be less than this by the amount of the commission. The commission on any given sale depends on the total Bitcoin price and is subject to change at any time.

OP updated, vendors TheCompany and MendoHashMan now added to the list.

I'm going to have to spend some time editing the list at some stage as it would seem a fair few of the vendors listed are no longer active.

Off topic / Re: Fed Crack Encrypted Drives- Good read if your bored
« on: August 15, 2013, 08:11 pm »
I am 100% for decriminalization of child porn possession (just thought I would add that since everybody else wants to point out their beliefs on the subject), but just talking about the encryption, they probably cracked it because he used a shitty password. Most people are probably not using very strong passwords. Even passwords with 80 bits of entropy are not considered secure anymore, and that is equal to roughly 80 characters of English text (ignoring PBKDF stretching).

This is my concern, if you need a password 80 bits or longer you are not going to be able to memorize it meaning it has to be stored somewhere. I currently keep most of my passwords in an encrypted volume but I need to have a strong password to get into that volume to begin with. Forgive my ignorance but how are people safely storing these 80+ character passwords without fear they could be uncovered? and if that's a stupid question to post feel free to pm me instead.

Well good morning to you samesame! What kind of coffee do you prefer?

Good morning to you too DanDan, I enjoy a cappuccino mate :)

Admins rarely get involved in resetting forum passwords because it is much harder to verify ownership. I would say you will probably have to write that account off and start over I'm afraid.

Customer support / Re: refund rate ruined
« on: August 15, 2013, 07:41 pm »
Unfortunately I doubt it, it is the buyers responsibility to ensure that they respond the any counter proposals in the resolution center as well as ensuring the most up to date proposal reflects the resolution they are seeking. If you did not do that the admins are very unlikely to b able to assist you after the fact. Best you can do is submit a customer support ticket explain what happened and see if they can help you.

Out of interest what did you do? if you wanted a reship was the vendor in agreement? did you submit a proposal asking for a reship?

Silk Road discussion / Re: Forbes interviews Dread Pirate Roberts
« on: August 15, 2013, 11:41 am »

I love the idea.  How about this idea...  let's forge a society where people like us don't have to hide.  Then we can party together for many years before death ever finds us.

^^^^This!! 1000 times this.

I hope this step out into the media spotlight furthers the cause, people globally are waking up to the shameful hypocrisy of our governments actions and behavior, Silk Road is operating outside of the systems of coercion and control that seek to enslave us, great interview.
