I wouldn't buy anything which could harm my privacy and freedom.
Don't forget that TOR browser was made from US Military, they could been working on a new SilkRoad and track you.
I heard there were quite a few undercover cops posing as dealers on SR, so they could get the addresses of buyers and arrest them.
feds are more interested in busting vendors. and what's the point in having undercover accounts when you could easily bust the people who provided their personal info without PGP encryption? lots of buyers didn't, quite possibly because they are junkies/addicts.
Yeah, I doubt they're gonna waste their time trying to catch little Jimmy Bob trying to be an eight of quality weed. And besides, I think it may fall under entrapment if they set the vendor account up themselves. They could maybe bust a vendor and take over his account and that would be legit, but I don't think they can keep shipping out the drugs, so I'm sure somebody will know something is up when a top-rated vendor's packages suddenly stop arriving. Feds go after dealers and suppliers, not waste their time on small time users.
