Finalize Early

you pay the vendor before you order arrive.

You should not ^^

This has already been covered on the forum somewhere but..

(FE) Finalizing Early - Finalizing your order (releasing funds) before you receive your item (or in some cases before the Vendor dispatches your item). Vendor's may ASK this if your a new buyer, have a high refund rate/auto finalize rate, larger orders, international orders ect - although it is not a requirement and is against SR rules.

Should generally be avoided - Escrow is designed to offer protection to both the buyer & seller.

Hope that helps.
