🏪 Vendor's Complete Guide

Begin by creating a standard buyer account on TorZon Market and building initial trust through legitimate purchases. Once your account has sufficient age and activity, apply for vendor status through the market dashboard. You will need to pay a vendor bond — this is a refundable deposit designed to prevent scammers from setting up fake shops. Prepare a detailed application describing your product category and shipping capabilities.

Write detailed, accurate product descriptions that include all relevant specifications — weight, quality, origin, and packaging method. Upload high-quality photos with all EXIF metadata stripped (use ExifTool or MAT2). Set realistic pricing by researching competitors. Create multiple shipping options with clear delivery timeframes for domestic and international orders. Use descriptive titles that help buyers find your products through search.

Your reputation score is your most valuable asset as a vendor. Ship every order within 48 hours of payment to maintain fast processing metrics. Respond to buyer messages promptly and professionally. Resolve issues proactively — offering replacements or refunds for legitimate problems builds long-term trust. Encourage buyers to leave reviews after successful transactions. Consistency is key: one negative experience can undo months of positive reviews.

Use a dedicated device running Tails OS exclusively for vendor operations — never mix with personal activities. Process all communications through encrypted channels only. Destroy customer shipping addresses immediately after dispatch — never maintain a database of buyer information. Use Monero (XMR) for all withdrawals to prevent blockchain tracing. Rotate your PGP keys every 3-6 months and announce key changes to your buyers.
