Title: What if my product may arrive after my order auto-finalizes?
Post by: soloasch on August 18, 2012, 02:08 am
Hi all,

I recently placed an order, but it's my first in over a year, so I apologize if this question has already been answered. Since my absence, SR has certainly grown. I jive with bitcoins and escrow but I'm new to the concept of "auto-finalizing". See, the vendor I chose to buy from says that an order shipping to my area can take up to 15 business days to arrive. He also gives explicit instructions on his product page to FE (within 48 hours of going in transit, I believe), which I'm skeptical about, even though the vendor has beautiful feedback.

Basically, I'm scared to finalize in case I don't receive the product, but I'm also worried that I'm not giving my vendor enough time to deliver, considering that I will auto-finalize within ~15 calendar days now that my order has shipped. I want to have a good relationship with my vendor, I want to have the smoothest of transactions, and I obviously don't want to get screwed. What should I do?

You can extend the auto-finalise date ten days after dispatch.
