[I *think* this question goes here...]
As a buyer, I'm curious what information about me is available to prospective vendors. I recently returned after a decent hiatus from SR, to make a few purchases, and as expected all my messages and account history have been purged off. My concern was that vendors would see me as a "new" buyer and request that I finalize early or jump through some other hoops to make my orders, even though I've jumped through those hoops a long time ago.
Do vendors "rate" buyers on the proper site? Are those permanent?

Go to http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/account/buyer_stats -- that's what they see. The link is available from your account page for future reference.

My secret tor tool allows me to watch you masturbate.

We can only see how long you have been a member, how many purchases you have made, how much you have spent, your refund rate and how many transactions you have let auto finalize..
Nothing personal.. just helps vendors decide weather to continue with your order etc..

also, and correct me if i am wrong, but a vendor can only see these stats when you purchase one of their items, right?

Correct

We can see your number of transactions, your refund rate, your auto finalize rate & your total bitcoins spent, nothing you need to worry about us knowing about you, its not like we know what you had for breakfast last wednesday or anything :)
As soon as we mark your order as in transit your stats are no longer viewable by us. Its a small price to pay as after your first 5 transactions we trust you to finalize on time and such. Just get past those 5 transactions and you'll have nothing to worry about :)

Whoops, guess I could have found that one on my own, haha. Thanks.

Yeah, I'm definitely past that point haha. I was just worried that those numbers might "clear out" after a while like messages or anything, and vendors would see me as having 0 purchases. But I can see that in the above link I'm good. Wasn't worried about other info beyond what I encrypt and send to vendors. Honestly I'm glad that vendors have some access to non-specific info, keeps the trust level higher.
Thanks guys
