I'm sure you're good and all but no chance I click any links on this site.
Any other way to get advice?

It's a link to another thread that this person spent quite a bit of time on purely to help people like you not fuck shit up. Look at the URL. You've been handed a gift, it lays out everything most new people have no clue about. I'm guessing that's you by this response. Click the link.

Check sellers ratings, never fe early, never do business outside of sr if you send coins outside of the site and they take your money you are sol.. make sure you get your coins from a reliable source not anyone named bitcoinbillionaires lol..

Buy from reputable vendors is number 1.

With the responses of long term members I will check that thread out.
I am just worried about buying and package not coming then having problems disputing. Also need to read up on all the FAQs so I don't fuck up, thanks guys.

I'm not sure what asshole already -1 you we were all clueless at some point. Anyway, though with the proper precautions you can statistically be very very safe ordering from here, if you aren't ready to handle a no show, or a knock at your door from the police then don't order.

Don't spend money that you cannot afford to lose/for starters.
The thing about FE is that as a noob there may be something you really want but only one seller, they can seem legit or have prices that make them an option for you and they require you to FE. Once that is done you really have no recourse other than sharing your experience on the forum.
I used FE as requested by BusinessAsAlways for three 10mg IR Opana and then he turned out to be too stupid to manage his business and never sent me anything. He seemed legit based on his feedback but in the end told me it was my own fault for FE'ing even though he told me he required it.
Have you ever been burned in real life? At least on here all you lose is some money. The people that will rip you off here aren't going to decide they need to beat you half to death to get your money.

Thanks guys.
Is it against any rules or unwritten rules to ask about products/sellers here? I would like to talk about what I am looking for and who has had good experiences with who etc.

If you haven't noticed we don't have very many rules around here, although we do have boundaries!
No it is not bad to ask about certain vendors but often times you should just run a search on them first.
I have a list of good review threads and my trusted vendors in that thread I linked you to.

No, that is one of the main points of these forums. Just do not share any personal information or information about the packing, unless it is vague and doesn't give anything away that would be useful. That's pretty much the biggest nono there is. I believe the post earlier in this thread had links to threads about that, as well as his recommended sellers. If you are browsing SR, most vendors will have a link to their review thread on here. You can also just search their name.

I wanted to make sure it was ok because im not used to open talking about it I guess.
I am looking for some good opium, ready to smoke cooked down without all the plant matter. I didn't see a review for opium in the thread you linked. Do people ever negotiate prices here or is it set?

I would suggest TheScurvyCrew for some bomb ass opium. Also most vendors will only negotiate when you are ordering in bulk.

I was interested in his ad until I saw a comment saying they rip off new buyers.
To be honest that comment is kind of what turned me off ordering from this site. I guess I just need to read up on how escrow works and all that so I don't get got.

it's easy for competing sellers to leave that bullshit review on there. I can guarantee they DO NOT rip off ANY of their customers. Go to their review thread for proof.
You won't get ripped off if you look and see what others have been getting.
Escrow is simple.
A middle man (SR) holds the vendors money until the customer has agreed that the product is as advertised.
-
Scurvy does mention you need 3 previous transactions to buy, and if the order doesn't make it a 50% refund OR a reship.
If that's the route you want to go, there are tons of vendors offering cheap digital product to get your transactions, and also get a feel for how everything works. I did that anyway.

Cool so the site escrows, alright Im doing 3 lotto transactions then ill place an order and see what comes of it. Thanks for the replies guys, awesome place.

Good luck, don't stress.

How do I add karma to those who helped?

Use common sense. Find a few sellers who don't mind using the regular escrow policy with new buyers and buy a few things from those type of sellers to establish a little history. After that the reviews pretty much tell it all. It's a beautiful system. Sellers can't just go around ripping people off left and right, it doesn't work like that.

If you order from overseas your taking the risk of the package not turning up, use domestic vendors if your worried.
