    If this was real I’d be interested in the details. Did anon accept fiat or crypto? Were the boxes advertised mainly on the darknet itself? Or clearnet, and if clearnet how did they get users that know wtf an onion link is or how to use it? Were the police alerted by an irate customer calling the police near the return address, or were the cops buying the cookies as a sting operation?

        Nobody just gives away $200, and buying a “mystery box” from an anonymous stranger is the same thing.

          Plenty of people do though. When you’re advertising a mystery box for $200, the average person won’t be interested, but there are plenty of whales who just have to know what’s in it.

            Perhaps “nobody” is slight exaggeration. But I guarantee that more people would buy Girl Scout cookies for $5 than a mystery box for $200.
