I have contacted my source and presented him with my question. I am completely up to date and understand how it all goes together now.
Thank you for discerning the difference between a spammer and a newbie to the hobby in distress. All now is well.
PS: When I joined this site in pursuit of answer, I had to create an online identity. That stresses me out especially in a moment of need knowing full well I'll likely not visit the site again. In an effort to be done with it, I chose the absolute first thing that came to mind; again knowing full well that it could suggest I'm a trolling trouble maker. Thank you for not blowing me off.
This morning before replying here, I contacted my seller once again and had a good, quick, mind to mind dialogue and light bulb switched on brightly now...all is well!
