Title: Placed order still processing, question about cancelling?
Post by: mayrona on July 01, 2013, 11:29 pm
I placed and order and paid the bitcoins that goes along with it. Status has been "processing" since thursday last week.
As I am new to this, I worry.
What happens if i press "cancel"? I get my bitcoins back, being able to place a new order for them, or what?

That is a long time to wait.  My first 3 transactions were held up 72 hours in "processing" mode.  In my opinion, that is too long to wait when it's a US domestic shipment.  I know SR isn't Amazon.com but there should be a minimum standard of 48 hours AT THE MOST that a vendor has before the order must be  "in transit."      "Just In Time" processing is what is expected and what people are accustomed to these days.     I would cancel the order.  Ridiculous.

Cancel the order. I placed a order with a vendor that I've used before and he never shipped or replied to my message. After seeing some negative reviews come in before I could cancel, I canceled right away. Best of luck!

if you go on the vendors profile you can see when they were last online. but yeah you can cancel and you'll get your money back, less any commission and hedging fees that may apply.

Something similar is happening with Dusk Dawk Pharmaco. Ordered from him, said processing for a few days, then in transit for 2 days, then he cancelled, and now he is in stealth mode with all of his items down.
I still have another order with him I can't cancel, but it seems something sketchy is going on with him.

A lot of the SR sellers are busy as all shit. So, its not all that uncommon to wait a few days before shipment. Though more than 4 days is for me, and for many other as well, far too long.

Since the order was not processed, you did not actually pay for the item yet. Your coin will be refunded to your account upon cancellation.

What does it mean when a vendor goes into "stealth mode" ??      So basically it just changes the vendor's profile page so we can't read anything?  I guess I'm confused by the whole concept and don't understand its purpose.   Please excuse my dumb question.    Thanks for any input anybody feels like submitting.  Appreciate it..... :D

Stealth mode means the listings are hidden but still avaible on sr. To see them you have to have the listing bookmarked (or be a fan of the vendor? this may or may not show it idr)

How does one pull up bookmarked listings.  I bookmarked some random listings but don't know how to view them.  Yep, I'm a noob! :)

Bookmarked items should appear on the right, when you first load up SR.   Like on the "home" SR page, for lack of a better term.    The Tab that reads "Welcome! Silk Road"   Hope that makes sense.
