Been around in various forms since SR2 days, but this is new and has happened enough to be a pattern.
The past 4 orders I've made, I have had to chase down vendors and ask when they are going to ship after sitting on them for several days up to a week.
With all of the market instability going on right now, it is crucial to be timely so we can get our orders and then rapidly finalize upon receipt. (I always finalize same day upon receipt).
Not sure if others are experiencing the same or not, but am having this with well-known, well-reviewed and established vendors on multiple markets. Product has been arriving in good order, so this is only a shipping and response-time issue.
I agree A lot of vendors have their fingers up their ass.
