I'm about to make my first purchase soon and I already read some tutorials.
About PGP/GPG; So, I encrypt my message using the sellers' Public Key, but if I want him to answer to me I need to put MY public key in the encrypted message. Am I right? (like at the end of my message if I want? Is there better ways than that? - I haven't found a place to show my key on my account info like the seller can.)
About Bitcoins, let's say I buy Bitcoins on a site like bitMarket.eu. Can I have them sent directly to my account's eWallet here at the time of purchase? I saw that there's a 12 hours limit that the eWallet code will work, what if the transaction with bitMarket takes longer than that? Is that possible (I think I read about people waiting for days for their bitcoins).
Or maybe, is it safer to send them (at time of purchase from bitMarket) to a wallet I would install on my computer, and then send it from my computer to SK's eWallet? (That way it can't take more than 12 hours)
Thank you for you help in advance!

put your public PGP block in the message before you send it. That way everything is in one place once they open it to reply.

Okay, thank you. ^^
Okay I thought about it more and it would be stupid to send bitcoins directly to SR.

okat well I thought about it a bit more, and would be stupid to send bitcoins directly to SR.
then my question is : how long does it take for a transaction on bitmarket?
