Title: Hello All
Post by: WelshBoa on May 27, 2013, 04:05 pm
Well decided to register with Silk Road as Ketamine seemed to have dryed up in my area.

Managed to purchase some BitCoins painlessly enough through Bitbargain.co.uk which was on the "approved list".

Transferred money into my Silk Road account but not showing just yet....54min and counting! It does say can take upto 6hrs on the WIKI but hopefully will appear soon.

I have looked on BlockChain and shows address SR gave but dont fully understand what I am supposed to be checking for.

Anyway will enjoy reading and posting on here

Hi WelshBoa, and welcome to the community. :)

Your deposit should be showing up shortly, if it hasn't done so already. If it has not reached your account within 24 hours, please contact SR Support (using the 'Support' link in the bottom right hand corner of any page on the main site) and they will push it through manually for you.

Enjoy your time here on Silk Road!

Thanks Libertas, missed your post yesterday but it came through shortly after that!

Made my first purchase but as per vendors guidance on ad have been asked to FE as under 3 ratings.  I know I'm probably not protected if I do so but they seem to have really good feedback.

Is that common practice for a noob?  In fairness it does state it on ad also.

ps: if ok how do you actually FE?

Silk Road recommends against buyers FE'ing under any circumstances, for any vendor, at any time. Once you leave the protection of the escrow system there will be absolutely nothing we can do to help you should something go wrong.

An order can be finalised once it's been marked 'in transit' by the vendor, but again, if you FE you are leaving yourself open to being burned.
