Hey All,
I am attempting to make my SR purchase. I am inserting the correct address and name as well as I have more then enough BTC for my purchase (I have 3, I only need 1.3). When I enter my address / information and pin and click "place order" I get:
Sorry, an error was encountered.
We were not able to authenticate your request.
Is there a reason for this? I am using TOR Browser on Windows 64 bit. Thanks!

Make sure you are on this Silk Road address;
http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion
Be double sure, it doesn't have "onion.to" at the end.
Lastly make sure you truly are using TOR. By clicking the bookmark "Are you using TOR?"- It should automatically be bookmarked.

It's all good now. I'm not sure what the problem was but I closed and reopened TOR and logged in / out and all is well and I have placed both my orders!
WOo!

Just by being able to see any .onion site TOR is working
