Welcome, Well, first you need to get some Bitcoin to be able to make a purchase here as that is the currency used. You can get Bitcoin at sites like, *CLEARNET WARNING* www.LocalBitcoins.com www.BitStamp.net LocalBitcoins is your best bet as it others a wider range of payment methods, BitStamp only accepts SEPA transfers I believe. Once you have your Bitcoin you will need to send them over to your account, remember to put them though a tumbler first to "clean" your coins so they can not be traced. Here is a tumbler, they charge a small fee but it is worth it. http://fogcore5n3ov3tui.onion Once you got your Bitcoin in your account you can go ahead and find the product you desire in the marketplace. It's best to message the vendor before ordering to make sure they are available. Once you find what you want you can go ahead and purchase, but then you need to give the vendor delivery details. This is where you should get PGP encryption software so you can send the vendor your address and only they can read it. Here is a basic PGP encryption client which is easy to use. *CLEARNET WARNING* http://gpg4usb.cpunk.de/download.html After you have sent the vendor the details and paid your coins will get held in escrow, this is to protect you from any problems as Silk Road act as a middle man in your transaction only releasing the coins to the vendor when you receive your package. Once you receive your package you can go ahead and finalize the transaction and release the coins to the vendor. In rare cases vendors will ask you finalize early before shipping your package, Silk Road advises against this as if there is any problems they can not help you out as the vendor already has the coins so if you want to finalize early it's your call. If you need anymore help, feel free to contact me.
