Hey guys, I love this subreddit, the people are usually so helpful and if not at least entertaining. Anyway, I am a relatively new buyer, have only used the DNMs a few times and I had a couple questions about a recent order.
This has been my first order since Agora closed so I decided to try Nucleus(kind of wishing I chose Abraxas though now). I found a reputable vendor there who I ordered from before with no problems so I wanted to order from them here too. The vendor doesn't require FE, but gives free shipping for it, so I did.
I'm not so much worried about him scamming me because I FE'd, but I'm more worried about Nucleus' FE system. I ordered last week (10/10) and they marked it as shipped on 10/12. However, that day was Columbus Day(US to US btw), so idk if they maybe marked it as shipped but intended to ship it the next day? Anyway, after seeing it marked as shipped, I quickly finalized to make sure I would get the free shipping and I also left feedback. As soon as I left the feedback, basically all the information was wiped I guess, as the system assumed the order was all finished or whatever. I'm worried that because I placed feedback and wiped the data, I'm afraid that the vendor won't have access to my address anymore or even realize that he still has my order to ship(assuming he didn't ship it on Monday).
I guess I wanted to ask here first because I really don't want to cause problems where there aren't any and it hasn't been THAT long I guess, but I still thought I would have gotten my pack by now. I don't want to piss off the vendor by sending messages too early, as I'm sure they get that a lot as it is.
Bottom line, I hate Nucleus' "FE" system and I will probably not be using Nucleus again. I just hope I didn't fuck up my order because of something as dumb as leaving feedback early as it was quite a bit of money, for me anyway.
Thanks a lot for any help guys, any reassurances or whatever else would be welcomed at this point. If I left out any important details, feel free to ask and I'll check back here and answer any questions.
Your all good bro, Nucleus always puts finalised early orders in sent or finished orders.
