(Alphabay) Am I being scammed?

Short story:
Vendor advertised listing as 20 days domestic shipping and after placing my order he messaged me with a generic message saying
if I FE he offers an extra sample of his other listings, 5% extra, reship policy, next 48h shipping (instead of 20 days because he is doing FE orders first and stated 20 days shipping).
Then goes on stating reasons why he wants FE, like BTC fluctuation, market downtime, exit scam.
The only reason I chose to FE was his perfect feedback, around 500 with 0 negative, but he has over 1100 sales (the number behind his name?!) and only 500 feedback, is that normal?
I'm wondering how long I'm able to leave feedback after finalizing? Could he just want me to wait and let feedback timer expire? How long is feedback timer? 30 days?

edit: seems i made the question not clear: How long am i able to leave feedback on an finalized order?

I would say hes a scammer, dont finalize until you get your shit, once youve left feedback you cant go back and change it

I believe this is because the number by their name is the total number of items sold, not orders - like how one order could have an item quantity of 10.

I don't know if that's 100% accurate but it IS normal, you will find that most vendors have the same thing going on.
