I got this about two hours ago...
"Hello,
I need you to resubmit your address to me using the following pgp
-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
Version: GnuPG v2.0.20 (MingW32)
mQENBFIJKuABCAC0WhtqtOKQ0XDvnxHkkqtsQsI6Xa5myJ8lYFe+/dStF1OlYaMD
Q67phuOg0M+CdnoSYqZaKxF86UrggYZ3Dh1HxHk1O2sE0cn+ayFzJcFx6ln5Z8Ud
.................
My computer crashed and the pgp program won't let me use my older key for some reason."
I included only the first two lines of the PGP key.
Hate to be paranoid but I sent the following to SR support a few min. ago...
"This is the third try to send this. I'll try to be brief. I ordered from vendor DieselTherapy last Friday
(8/9/13) order marked "in transit" Sat. (8/10/13). Today two hours ago, I received PM asking I resend
address using new PGP key because "the computer crashed". His page says he wouldn't mark anything "in
transit" until it was in P.O.
Hate to be paranoid but if LE had raided and hacked acct, they may want less sophisticated (read stupid)
to send new addresses so they can make cases off of "Silkroad". I hope I'm wrong, but....Sent message
back saying I valued freedom more than what I ordered so I would wait.
My question is, I re-did address and copied and pasted new address with new key into reply then went to
forums to see if there was anything there, no info on forums so I closed the window BEFORE IT WAS
SENT. I looked at "sent" messages and it showed it had been sent. I deleted the message before it was
read. Was it deleted from the server, or should I go on vacation for a while (ie will the people on the other
end be able to read it ?)???????""
Has anyone else had same request for address from DieselTherapy with "new PGP key" and has anyone had any experience with deleting messages before read?
I'm not new but I'm not big on posting in forums (not what I'm here for) so I am restricted to postin here. Any help would be appreciated.

I replied to this with my address. hoping I'm not falling into the trap, seems unlikely they would hack his messages to get a few buyers, more likely he actually lost use of his pgp key and is trying to get orders out despite issues.

Hope you're right MauryDrovich. SR support said the message I closed BEFORE I submitted it found in "sent msgs" was delivered. I sent another two msgs to DT (and I know these guys are busy) but no response yet. If you hear anything let us know.

BWAHAHAHHAAAAAA!!!!!!
HILARIOUS!!!

Let me catch my breath!!!
WHEW!!!!
Kahn, it is quite normal for a vendor to ask someone to resubmit their address if there is a problem. I am going to go ahead and cancel your order so that you won't have to worry about any law enforcement paranoia hype malarkey. LOL!!! Man, you are crazy.

First, let me apologize. I was wrong and hope I have not caused this great vendor any major headaches.
Second, DT contacted me several days ago (after order was cancelled) and explained said he didn't have a problem with me. The mark of a great man is his willingness to see an others point of view.
Third, paranoia has kept me out of jail for a long, long time. Caution = Freedom.
I know now he had a legitimate problem w/his PGP as another, trusted, traveler on the Road contacted me and told me the story. Many thanks Juggernog. I simply hope this will not be held against me. I had a legitimate concern and since I am new and do not personally know anyone here, I went to the Forums for help. Hopefully, as time passes and I am able to communicate with more great people, I will be able to ask for advice privately and not cause a problem for a reputable vendor.
DT, again "mia culpa" I publicly wanted to apologize to you. When I can get the BTC to go thru, I WILL order ASAP.
Chagrined,
kahn
