fucking scammer, write in wickr, ripped me for 100 USD.
such a looser this guy.!
support ticket no respond from this market!
be careful, dont buy on this market!
inpol - 4yI've yet to receive a response from ANY support ticket raised. I made an error with receiving around $450 which could have been rectified instantly by their admin, in fact it's a service they say is easily rectifiable (in their FAQs) but it's cost me $450. Under different usernames I've tried to get a response but nothing. Bit of a scam I'd say.

Smooth transaction with Monero. This vendor had excellent comms, super-fast processing, and the product was absolutely immaculate. I'm not sure why so many have reported trouble with Empire recently. From the reports I'm reading, I suspect there is a lot of phishing going on and people are being duped into logging into bogus sites. My advice: Make sure to triple-check the URL before creating an account, and then set a login phrase (at a minimum) so that you'll always have a quick way of checking yourself in the future. If you want to be extra certain, add a PGP key and enable 2FA. Do these things, and you'll be fine. I think this is a solid market.
spock - 4yI ordered a package from a vendor I was not familiar with but had good reviews.They asked me to finalize early since there had been so many market shutdowns, which I did, unfortunately, Package was taking longer to arrive than expected. I went back and forth with vendor asking when it was to arrive, they kept saying it's on it's way, then they reshipped (they didn't), then they told me the package was not going to arrive, They got my order, my money and my FE review for their profile. Lesson learned: NEVER finalize early and go with trysted vendors on another market. I filed a complaint ticket with Empire but 3 day have gone by and I have heard nothing, the ticket status still says Processing. Do NOT trust Pharmacyofdrugs. They are scammers

This was mid - December, before Christmas. Site kept going up and down for two days......it finally came up and I was able to get my wallet address to send my bitcoin to. Went to Coinbase and sent the coins. ($240 after fees) I found a good vendor (usagear) who has proved to be so trustworthy, I FE with him). I waited several hours and no coins were ever credited to my acct. I started contacting support. I waited while the FIRST ticket sat in PROCESSING for three days before I started contacting them again. I just kept contacting them every day. Today is Feb. 2,2020. STILL ZERO response from Empire. I have the exact address the bitcoin was sent to, and Empire support STILL will not respond. They started deleted my tickets, so I started sending the same ticket over and over and over again - I figure they'd get sick of having to delete them and just deal with me. Still nothing. I've been trying since 8:30PM CST and I CANNOT access Empire.
