BECOME A VENDOR

1. The Vendor Bond: Integrity Assurance

The torzon market operates on a foundation of trust. In an anonymous environment, trust is currency. To prevent scammers, spammers, and low-quality drop-shippers from flooding the marketplace, we enforce a mandatory Vendor Bond.

Standard Bond Amount: $500 USD (Payable in Monero/XMR).

This bond is not a fee. It is a security deposit held in the market's multisig cold storage. If you decide to retire your shop, close all listings, and finalize all orders, you can request a full refund of your bond. However, if you are banned for scamming (selective scamming, exit scamming) or selling prohibited items, the bond is forfeited to the community fund.

Bond Waiver Program (Established Vendors)

We respect reputation built elsewhere. If you are an established vendor on Archetyp, Abacus, Nemesis, or defunct markets (AlphaBay, WhiteHouse), you may qualify for a Free Vendor Account.

Requirements for Waiver:

• Proof of Identity: You must have a PGP key that matches your profile on another major market or Dread forum.
• Sales History: Minimum 100+ sales with 4.8/5 rating on a reputable market.
• Verification Process: Register a buyer account on torzon official URL, open a support ticket titled "Bond Waiver", and sign a message with your PGP key.

3. Vendor Code of Conduct

The torzon darknet is a libertarian marketplace, but we have a strict "No Harm" policy. Violation of these rules results in an immediate, permanent ban and seizure of funds. We do not warn; we act.

4. API Integration for Bulk Sellers

Managing 50+ orders a day via Tor Browser is slow and prone to human error. The torzon official API allows you to programmatically manage your shop. You can sync inventory, download orders, and update shipping status using your own scripts.

The API is RESTful, returns JSON, and requires an API Key generated in your Vendor Settings. Rate limit: 60 requests per minute.

Python Example: Fetching Orders

Documentation: Full Swagger documentation is available within the vendor dashboard. We support endpoints for listing creation, message retrieval, and feedback replies.

5. The Art of Stealth Shipping

Your product quality means nothing if the package is seized. Stealth is the most critical skill for a torzon vendor. A "Love Letter" (seizure notice) is a failure of your OpSec.

Basic Stealth Requirements

• MBB (Moisture Barrier Bag): Every organic product must be vacuum sealed twice. The first seal contains the product. The second seal is the Mylar bag. Wipe the outside of the first bag with alcohol before putting it into the second bag to remove microscopic residue.
• Visual Decoys: The package should feel and look like normal mail. If you are selling pills, do not just put them in an envelope. Hide them inside a hollowed-out marker, a DVD case, or a sealed pack of trading cards.
• The "Shake Test": Shake your package hard. If it rattles, it fails. Customs officers shake packages. Secure everything with tape inside the decoy.
• Professional Labels: Do not hand-write addresses. Use a thermal label printer. Hand-written labels on business envelopes look suspicious.

Return Addresses

Never use your real address. Never leave it blank. Use a fake, realistic business name and address (e.g., "TechSolutions Ltd, 123 Main St"). Ensure the Zip Code matches the return city to avoid automated sorting errors.

6. Vendor Operational Security (OpSec)

As a vendor, you are a high-value target for Law Enforcement (LE). You must separate your personal identity from your torzon market identity completely.

The Vendor Workstation

Do not use your personal gaming PC to process orders.

• Hardware: Buy a cheap laptop for cash. Remove the webcam, microphone, and Wi-Fi card (use Ethernet).
• OS: Use Whonix or Tails. Whonix is preferred for vendors as it runs inside a VM and isolates the network, preventing IP leaks even if the workstation is compromised.
• Printer: Do not use a printer that prints yellow tracking dots (MIC). Use a thermal label printer (Zebra or Dymo). Never connect your printer to the internet.
• Photos: When taking photos of your product for the listing, strip all EXIF metadata. Ensure no reflections (on tables, screens, or bags) show your room or face.

7. Marketing Your Store

Traffic on the torzon url is high, but competition is fierce. How do you stand out?

1. Listings: Use high-quality, macro photography. Write detailed descriptions. Be honest about potency and weight. "Overweight" packages (e.g., sending 3.6g instead of 3.5g) generate massive customer loyalty.
2. Dread Forum: Create a vendor thread on Dread. Post updates, answer questions, and engage with the community. A communicative vendor is a trusted vendor.
3. Promoted Listings: You can bid for "Sticky" spots in your category using your vendor wallet balance. This puts your product at the top of search results.

8. Dispute Resolution: How to Win

Disputes happen. Packages get lost, or buyers lie. The torzon official moderators are impartial. To win a dispute, you need evidence.

Evidence Hierarchy:

1. Tracking Number: If you have tracking that says "Delivered", you win 99% of disputes immediately.
2. Postage Proof: A photo of the stamped package before dropping it off is good evidence.
3. Stats: If you have 500 sales and the buyer has 0, the moderator will likely side with you.

Communication: Never lose your temper. Be professional in the dispute chat. State your facts clearly. "I shipped on [Date] to address [Address]. Here is the postage proof." Aggressive vendors lose sympathy.
