I'm getting ready to place my order tomorrow and was wondering how the seller gets my shipping info and how to send it safely.
After I make a purchase on Silk Road what happens. Is there a step in the checkout process where you put your shipping Information. Or do I have to send a message to the vendor with my shipping address. If this is the case how do I go about sending it safely?
Thanks for the help guys also has anyone had experience with vividdivisions mdma?

Address goes in the address notes box when you checkout, above where your pin goes.
Check his vendor page for instructions.
If he doesn't have a PGP key listed, perhaps send it using privnote.com

This is something which is covered in the wiki, so if you haven't read through the wiki, you should.
In answer to your question, there is indeed a point in the order process in which you input your shipping information; while it is not required, what you should do for this is encrypt it with the seller's PGP key the same as you would a message. This helps ensure security and anonymity to anybody other than the seller. Best wishes on your first order!

Here is a link to the SR wiki -- I'd encourage you to read through it prior to placing an order. Two most important things: encrypt your sensitive info (shipping address) and stay in escrow!

Thanks for the quick replies guys I will definitely read through the wiki. I always saw the pgp keys lists on forum topics but never knew hat they were for.
