Bought item-can't log in

But essentially what I did was set up an AB account and sent 100$ with of bitcoin to my account.

I purchased an item (45$) and sent info to vendor.

I was a dumbass and can't remember my username now but I have my pin and mnemonic code as well.

But will I need to send vendor any more info or will package still arrive as planned?

This is my first purchase so should I forget about the 55$ I have on there and just make a new account?

Don't tell the vendor you can't access your account yet, or he will know that you are unable to leave negative feedback. if he's a dishonest person then it is possible that he might not send the item under those conditions.

Do you have a PGP key on your profile? Once the item arrives you could sign a message using your PGP key to prove your identity and ask the vendor to give you the username. This is probably the best way. If you typed anything unique and distinctive in the address box besides your address when you checked out - something only you would know - then this might also be a good way to identify yourself.

You could also send the vendor a PGP encrypted message from a new account with your address and what you ordered to try and prove your identity and ask him what your username is. But if he's a smart vendor he will NOT give you that information. Would be a huge privacy/security violation. But you could try.

Unfortunately if you can't remember the username and the vendor won't tell it to you, then there is no way to recover your account. Even the Mnemonic and PIN are not enough to recover the account. Again though, signing a message with your PGP key stating who you are and that you forgot your username should be enough if the vendor understands how PGP works.
