I've never heard of it taking 10 days. Nor 3 days. Not unless the person had to contact support and have them manually finish the deposit because for whatever reason, SR's automated system didn't properly register the bitcoin transfer. You're saying you waited 10 days, and it just automatically showed up after that long...?Check blockchain.info, turboted. Paste the bitcoin address on your account page (the one for depositing bitcoins) into the search field on blockchain and see how many confirmations your transaction has. 6 confirmations is considered "written in stone," by just about everyone everywhere. That's when I see my coins pop up in my account most of the time -- around 5-6 confirmations.Also, don't be alarmed if you see the coins getting sent to some other random bitcoin address. That's just SR's mixing system. It doesn't mean you lost them -- as long as your Silk Road account gets credited, where those coins end up doesn't really matter (at least not for you as a buyer).
