Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

Have you been able to login to the site. The communication is the same using encryption. You have to encrypt the message with the vendors keys. You have to send a least one message to the vendor with your shipping information.
Yeah i've been able to login. So do I just send them my information after or before setting the order?
i got mindboggled by how monero works last time i was on it. i think its one of the things that make it inaccessible for people
yeah me personally i was ready to give it up, but it's honestly not that hard, there just should be a guide on how to do it, that would save people lots of frustration
I used Kraken to buy and Cake for my wallet.
Ohh, i was going to use Cake but settled with Feather wallet. I already have enough XMR there. And i'm looking to buy SN.
I bought SN from them and everything went well , but when I tested it it came up as both nitrite and nitrate. I don't know much about the testing process so it may have been my error. So that's an important step for you since you don't really know what you are getting in terms of purity or how it was handled.
Right, well everyone seems to agree this vendor is reliable, so honestly i'll just take my chances. I have little to no other options, so.
um…i sent the xmr to the invoice, i didn't get a confirmation on if it reached the vendor or not, then it expired and said no payment received. gang did i just get scammed
You can try to work with DH support , give them the address you sent the payment to.
i clicked DH support, payment help, and put in the invoice and transaction id. it said it couldn't find the id in its system and that i might've gotten phished.
I checked the vendor's status, it says they're on vacation. Maybe that's what caused the problem? I don't know.
I don't know if they normally take orders while on vacation. The order process is automated, so it should work the same. I think they use different addresses , so maybe the one you got was outdated and not active. You could ask DH support if it's normal for vendors to accept orders while on vacati9n. Does it say for how long or when they will be back ?
I reached out to them through support and they simply said i might've gotten phished and that i should've checked PGP signatures (which i did…) Ill just accept I lost my money. But I don't know what to do to avoid this next time. Do you have any experience buying from there?
Yes , I've bought 2 times from different vendors. The only thing I could think of was it had to do with them being on vacation, maybe the address needed to be updated. I know they change them at times. The one suggestion I've seen is to make a small payment first , then once it's been received send the remaining amount.
Oh okay, next time I try i'll send a small portion first, but how do I know if I sent it to the right address? Also did you do the PGP signature checks? There might've been something else that I had to do
Yes I did check the message.
Yeah it still shows they're on vacation
But maybe I did really get phished, idk. I'll just try again in a few days when my crypto can be transferred.I think I got phished by the same person. Same "On Vacation" message.Yeah it still shows they're on vacation
No way
That person has been bought from before, I don't understand why they would phish? The vendor is jcmglobal right? or smth like that.
