Yes, indeed. Hence the earlier, “HOW GET MONEY?” someone so eloquently asked in relation to this dead drop method. You could arrange your own dead drop for the dealer’s payment I guess, or stuff the money in to the same tree. It’s all a bit fraught, and requires you both to trust each other even more than a deal normally would. The system seems to be pretty flawed. Guess it works of you’re happy to leave an indelible record of you transacting with this person and if you trust them to actually put the goods there rather than just take the money since you’ll never see them and have no recourse.

This is a solved problem on darknet markets. They use crypto and have reviews/escrow like Ebay. The only difference is they mail you the drugs instead of leaving it somewhere.
