I would recommend taking some time to read the SR wiki to get your head around how to safely use Silk Road and get set up with buying bitcoins, encryption (PGP), etc. I hope that wasn't presumptuous of me but reading your post gives me the impression you are not totally familar with some of the basics yet. Here is the link: https://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion.to/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page When you buy bitcoins bit instant will transfer then to the btc wallet address you provided, so assuming you gave them your SR bitcoin wallet address they should arrive in a few hours, sometimes longer. You can check the progress of the transfer by going to the blockchain website and entering the BTC address you sent the coins too, it will show you how many confirmations the transfer has had. Hope that helps.
