(the word behind ALT is "normal")
Is it just me, or does $8k seem like a really small amount of money for hiring a hitman? Did they have a coupon?

People are dumb. I've seen cop shows where they pay the "hitman" $500-$2K for a hit.
If some enterprising disruptor startup started doing hits for $500, we’d solve the traffic problems in LA and the Bay Area in less than a week.

Probably a Groupon
Three people at the same restaurant.
That seems about right if the hitman is local, it's a small area, and they're just starting out. You get that word of mouth advertising going then you can start charging a higher rate, charging for travel, and making a real living.
New customer discount, you know how these online services are nowadays
That's how they get you.
Reading the source, it appears that 8k was only a 50% downpayment:
Wan then electronically transferred a 50% downpayment of approximately $8,000 worth of Bitcoin to the dark web marketplace.
So was this a sting? I’m not sure how he didn’t realize something was off when “accident” and “normal shooting” were the same price
I’m not sure where you’re shopping but both are the same price where I order my hitmen from
If you don't have homegrown hitmen, store bought is fine.
I’ve always been more of a “boutique” hit man experience connoisseur myself
Well you would be... CIA bot
Love what you do, and you’ll never work a day in your life!
We're not buying hitman, we have hitmen at home.
Hitmen at home 🔫
I mean accident may also be simultaneously easier as there’s much less heat on the (hypothetical) hit man
Seems like you know a lot about this subject...
