Hello,
I've noticed a lot of reviews have FE but I'm not sure what it means? Would appreciate somebody explaining it to me please, and if its bad then why do they still highly rate the vendor?
Thanks

FE = finalize early. Your money won't be in escrow, it'll be in the seller's hands. Then you have to have faith they'll send the goods, but they've got the cash so they could fuck you.
Short story, don't FUCKING do it.

Yeah, it's not good practice to FE, but to be fair I have FE'd for more weight from a trusted vendor and everything turned out great. Use your own judgement.

Thanks for the info
-
Yeah avoid it basically if you can (not always possible) but only do it with someone you've dealt with before or small amounts imo.
-
oh i see! thank you for the info, very helpful. Does it make that much of a difference time wise though? sorry I'm very new to this so I'm just starting to understand it more.
Thank you!

As far as I can tell it makes no difference
if u were to finalize early there's little motivation to rush but if they're waiting for their cash then they are going to hurry but thats not taking into account the fact some vendors want/need good repeat customers so will probably rush anyway...
(my logic is usually flawed so don't take this as truth)
conclusion-your guess is as good as mine !

Dont FE!!!
