Hey, As above; still kind of new to this and I was interested in what the benefits are of purchasing from a vendor rather than from an exchange, a slight increase in anonymity? But is this not accomplished by washing your Coin anyhow..

Wouldn't it be possible to just set up on an exchange and then sell Coins to yourself through an alternate identity/IP?
There are pros and cons to both. You are correct that if you tumble your coins that you can remove 99% of the risk associated with exchanges.
I recommend for new BTC buyers on here to use cash deposit. You get your coins pretty quickly (depending on the vendor) and it's 100% anonymous.
