If he's banned, does it mean he cannot access orders? Is it why he asked me to send the MP number again?

I don't have a prepaid card, I'll try to go to a store to see if they can check the balance, or pick up a prepaid card. Thanks.

If you have a PayPal account, you can also check the balance that way.  You would sign into your PayPal account, click at the top on "add funds" ... and then choose the option about Moneypak.  You will then have the opportunity to put your MP info in.  Do that, submit, and it'll show you the balance.  At this point, hit cancel or return to PayPal account -- that way, you have just checked the balance and not actually loaded it into your account.

Well, Kwick Ficks has already scammed at least one other user with the MP listing, so I would bet it was him. 

Did you click on "report this vendor" on his profile in order to report the scam?

It sounds like the vendor has been banned ... sadly, I don't think you'll be receiving anything from him.

At this point its starting to get ridiculous. It's been well over 72 hours since I made my initial deposit. My SR account balance still remains 0.00.
My support ticket is almost 72 hours hours old as well and I have yet to here from SR support. I completely understand being busy but this needs to get resolved soon or at the very least a response from support that they are looking into it.

I'm with you on that. I've tried to be patient, and have been, but this is insane.

I am starting to think that my money has just been stolen. I've thought about making another small deposit with a new pin and all that, but I'm really hesitant to do that since my support ticket hasn't even been read and we're quickly nearing the 48 hour mark since I submitted it. It sucks, but I'm starting to realize that this is one of those experiences that cost me $50.00 but I've learned from it and it could have been more. Still, I wish I had made that initial test deposit more like .01 BTC. Thank God I didn't deposit the whole wad as I had originally thought about doing.

l'd really appreciate it if a mod would take a look and at least offer an opinion on what they think might have happened. I 'd pm the address I sent it to in a heartbeat if I thought I could get this resolved soon.

BTW OP, when you look at your account history, does it show the deposit going to your address, and then show it going somewhere else with no address? They tell me that this is the tumbler in action.

First, Support tickets are currently backlogged 48 hours.  You're not going to lose the money, so please relax.

If you want to PM me your SR btc address, I'll check it out on blockchain, but beyond that, there isn't anything we can do from our end here in the forums.

It will always take at least 6 confirmations in the network before it shows up, and each confirmation usually takes around 10 minutes ..... so when everything is running smoothly, you should usually see your deposit within 1-2 hours.

As per the wiki:

  Why isn't my deposit showing up in my account?  It can take up to 6 hours for a deposit to be confirmed on the blockchain, processed, and credited to your Silk Road account.  If your deposit still hasn't shown up, first check that it is showing up on the blockchain by searching for your deposit address on a site like blockchain.info (http://www.blockchain.info). If your transfer doesn't appear here, then it was never sent and you need to find out why from the person or organization who initiated the transfer.  If the transfer does appear, then there could be a problem on our end and you should contact us.

There is no way to delete your SR account.  That feature would be ripe for scamming.

IIRC, you take it to the resolution center and request the refund.  I might be wrong though ...

There were some issues with him and I believe he was banned.
