Contacting vendors directly

Hello all,

Am new to reddit and need a question answered which is probably quite straightforward but i just want to make sure before i do anything.

With silk road having been shut down and Agora not being able to cater to the huge quantity of people trying to access it, i am opting towards contacting a vendor directly.

Now i have the vendor's email address and i assume you don't just contact him with a standard email service

Is there a deep-web email service or is PGP what is needed to contact them or what is the best way to contact them?

Thanks

Make a completely new email address to send any email to them. Create it using Tor, only log into it over Tor. I recommend openmailbox.org. PGP encrypt anything you email to them, just encrypt the cleartext and put the encrypted blob in the message body. Use a period for a subject or leave it blank.
