I have no experience with actually buying or spending BitCoin yet, but I do know that you should really check your sources before purchasing coins in the future ... or even just go to one of the BtC sellers that is listed on the Road's Buyer's Guide. There's plenty of BitCoin scams out there. Sorry to hear you lost your money, but there's likely nothing that can be done to get it back. Did you give them your credit card information and credentials, as well? I would keep a close eye on your bank account for a little while, if so.
Keep us posted on how this goes.

Yes, you will need to find another place to deposit because whatever you gave them is gone forever. They are a scam and probably the #1 spammers here, which is the reason the 50 post rule came into existence
Probably not the best time to scold you, but do a little research first. Do a simple search of 'silkroadtor' here and you'll see that every post mentioning it says it's a scam. They also operate under various misspellings of legitimate exchanges, so be careful. (mt gix, virwix, bitcointalks, etc)

@Doc Chronic
Word. That is precisely what I am aiming not to do. I am gonna learn as much as I can about everything involved in this before I even consider diving in. Knowledge is power... but most people just wanna go ahead and get that order in the mail -.-
