Never use an abandoned house. Use your own address with your real name.
Google bitcoin values, it will probably be around $110 to $120.
Use the forums to find the answers to any questions you have, it may take a while sifting through the insane amount of data but you will learn a lot throughout the process which will make you a safer and more secure SR user!

Goodluck

Also to gain some confidence, order from some local vendors, in small quanities

this will increase your rep and confidence in how this trade is done,


from there go to international vendors,

there is also a zero chance your goods would be intercepted if imported locally

oh yea also try and finalize the minute you recieve the mail and know the goods are in there,

good luck bro

Step by step (simplest version) :
- Install Tails
- Copy the TOR address  http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/ in your sticky to avoid phising.
- Access Silkroad
- Slowly work up your reputation as a buyer. Buy local, buy small.
- Learn PGP (encryption). It's difficult but it's worth it. Use it to encrypt your address before sending it to your vendor. Some people here use Privnote. Not sure about it's security, but it's better than using no encryption at all.
- Don't use abandoned house, your stuff will not be delivered. It will bounce back to you seller, and it will be bad for everybody. Use a valid address, don't sign the receipt.
- After you receive your stuff, finalize your order on the Silk Road. Leave a comment. The number of finalized orders in your stat will be your credibility when you buy from a vendor.
