So I know what i'm doing and what to do on the outside but when I came across finally diving into this underground road myself instead of relying upon other members I knew in real life, I had a lot more troubles than expected. Here are my main questions/problems:
1)What is the safest way to use SR (not over the top, freaking out paranoid, just safe) and should I really do the USB stick method?
2)Best place to buy around $200 US worth of BitCoins (online or in-stores)?
3)Do you really need to tumble around BitCoins before putting into SR account or just put straight in once purchased?
4)When to encrypt messages and how to send them when buying, also how to read encrypted messages back?
5)Should I listen if they have 100 rating next to name and they say to FE because my first purchase on the Road?
6)What is a good rating to know it is a reputable dealer, and also signs of not being reputable or signs of a scam?
7)Best way to receive shipments and what to do with package when arrives (Should I really write "return to sender" on box and not open)?
Anything that said "should I" were things that I had found from looking up online on forum answers and wanted to get second opinions that also weren't so outdated like some of the answers i found.
Thanks for any help given as I am eager to join the community and become a good buyer on the Road.

Seems like for anonymity of using cash and ease of use bitinstant is hard to beat. bitinstant > wallet > SR
Any problems with this?
