1 - don't be scared. it's hard to believe you can get cannabis in the mail like something from amazon but you can and unless you live in saudi arabia don't even sweat it for a second, no one gives a shit.

2 - bitcoins are a pain in the ass. getting your head around them conceptually is tougher than #1 but worth it. besides here you can use them to send money privately for your business or family without dealing with banks. it doesn't hurt to be ahead of the curve especially with finance. use the help resources here, they won't let you down.

3 - ratings are relative. like every rating system people are generally too kind or are total cunts and it resolves to a binary: 10 or not 10. this means a 9.9 is a ton better than a 9.4. if things are still too close to call read the reviews, they are legit, you can not write one unless you have bought the item.

4 - reach out to the community. if you need any help or have concerns come back here and post, it's the friendliest place you are going to find, trolls are not part of the culture but kindness is. it's also fun to read some of the crazier shit once you get your weed.

This is good yes maybe there isn't a postman on earth that cares but Customs does, its what they are paid to do and in some places they like to steal for themselves, like it's part of their job as well. If you are a noob stick to local or customs union countries. I'm not saying you will get in trouble from customs but you will lose your stuff if you are unlucky.

New buyers->Old sellers
With escrow and a good rep seller you take risk out of the equation.

Also if you do if have any problem as a new buyer and it comes to a dispute, extend the time for settlement so you have time to make a better reputation for it.

you came to the right place. Over 2 years for me. The vendors are good and will get you what you need. You'll be nervous-I still get a little nervous-but I've had over 100 buys here. Once in a while something goes wrong; when it does, try to relax, regroup and contact the seller. The seller will remedy. Start small until you get confident in certain sellers.

Says it all
