It funny how many of these grand schemes get unraveled due to one simple unanticipated event. This person took almost every precaution he could not to be discovered only for everything to come tumbling down due to a nosy neighbour.

It's almost impossible to run these markets without slipping up somewhere. It seems this guy was actually directly involved with the dealing though and wasn't just a Ulbruct type who created it and let others do the actual business. I wouldn't recommend running one from any western countries and make sure whatever country you are in doesn't have the death penalty for drugs offenses.

You cant say that because you dont know the size of the market.
you always need 2 out of 3 values to know this.

so in holland they researced drug use and siezed amounts.
and they came to a conclusion that the chance to get busted it about 1-4% at most.

He was 20 years old, and he was sent to a "juvenile detention facility"? I thought that juvenile detention facilities are only for kids under the age of 18. Anyway, had this guy did this in the United States, then he would have received life without parole (just like Ross Ullbricht). Anyway, the Germans seems to be more unbiased and normal-minded, when compared to the retarded Americans.

Ironically, the sophisticated operation unraveled when a nosy neighbor opened one of the packages that was sent by Maximilian and contacted the authorities. A major investigation was launched that culminated with the arrest of the young man in February, when authorities found 300 kilograms of drugs in his mother’s apartment.


Quote
His mother described Maximilian as a loner, who had become a shut-in and refused to let anyone in his bedroom.

What did she expect, he was busy running a multi-million drug 'empire'. He was a busy man.
