Question about PGP

ok when using pgp and knowing what vendor I want to purchase goods from, I go into their profile and copy their public pgp key into notepad. Save it. Then import the key from pgp. Now here is my question. When I input my address to be sent and encrypt using the vendor's key, does the vendor need to know my public pgp key? Or does me encrypting it using his key do the job?

Encrypting it with the vendors key will do the job, you only need to give your public key if you want an encrypted reply

You can put your public key in your profile. This will allow vendors to encrypt a message to you. You will also be able to enable 2fa.
