I am looking to buy directly from Farmer1 (as Agora n stuff have been n will remain down). Can someone explain to me how to do this and also how to retrieve his direct access details as Agora is down and they're on his profile page on Agora? Thanks.
How to do a direct deal with a vendor for someone who never has before?

Well, I guess you'll need to find out what the vendor's preferred method of contact outside of the market is. It'll probably be email or maybe Jabber as I've seen some vendors using that as well. Same precautions apply in terms of using PGP. If you are using email, I'd suggest getting a decent email address and obviously not use something like gmail or Yahoo.
Generally you'll want to reach out to the vendor via their preferred method of contact, ask them if they have whatever it is you want. Once you make a deal, they'll send you a BTC address, preferably PGP'ed, and you'll send your drop info, again PGP'ed. And that's it. OF course direct deals are FE so the FE precautions apply.
Have you tried Grams? I know some have profiles. If not, I'm sure someone here knows how to get in contact with this vendor.
