Forgive my ignorance but did he actually sell drugs or simply create a marketplace for drugs to be sold?

Doesn't matter, really.  Knowingly profiting from illegal activities makes you guilty. Add facilitating them by providing a marketplace, and you get criminal conspiracy and accessory after the fact to thousands of things that went down. Under law he's considered worse than any of the individual sellers. 

And If I recall correctly, wasn't there a post on here from someone who said they had bought mushrooms or something from him?
