Ahhh... I did it! Well really you guys did it, thank you both soon much for taking time out of you day to help!!  Just out of curiosity, it says my balance is 83.826mBTC. I haven't seen mBTC before, is it just another way to show smaller amounts of Bitcoin?

I don't understand how to import the funds, that's been my problem all along, I guess I didn't explain myself very well

I can get to that page, and I have both copy's of my private key. I used the compressed key in the transaction where I sent my BTC to the compressed address. I have all the pieces just don't know how to use them. The original wallet the funds came out of is a free wallet from blockchain. So what I think you're telling me is that if I open that wallet and use my non compressed key where it asks for the address I'm transferring funds from, then it will go back in my wallet? Or should I use the key I originally used? Why are there two of everything anyway, to make it more frusterating? (Jk)

Progress.. I found the transaction on blockchain.info by entering the compressed address into their search box, just need to figure out how to put it back where it came from..

1MSfcqR5wbNhqypauTkSaf6nbWyrEBiRh6 is the regular one
12X3ZrbDhY3norV3HcQaC5AcSsriwpmk1Z is the compressed one, the one I sent BTC to when it was supposed to go to the regular one. Since I had (them) generated by a BTC client, would the keys be required to check? I just don't know how unless there is a button next to it that says ' send'. Sad, but true...

I'm rechecking the addresses now, I probably did make a mistake bc I entered them manually. I had them generated at bitaddress.org. I was able to place a successful multi sig order with them but I had copy and pasted them for that. Give me a sec and I'll do the same here

Wow, thank you so much for the advice and offer to help! It's a huge relief to hear I can get my $ back!! I'm not in any hurry at all and my schedule is pretty flexible so whenever works for you is most likely good for me too. Just bear with me if it takes a little longer for me to respond, I really am way out of my league with all this but it's very good brain excercise figuring it all out lol!

Please help!  I am very tech challenged and was figuring out multi sig on my own to place an order on a darknet marketplace last night. In the process I prematurely sent $100 of BTC to the compressed version of my address. When I was placing my order, the market asked me to send BTC to the other version of my address. Now my BTC is floating around in space or something, but still at an address associated with my account. Is there a way to retrieve it?
My address (compressed) that I sent it to is:
12X3ZrbDhY3norV3HcQaC5ASsrwipmk1Z
It was supposed to go to the regular address that was generated which is:
1MSfcqR5wbNhqypauTksf6nbWyrEBiRh6
I can give you private and public keys too if you need. Thanks!!
