I seller is requiring an early FE for free shipping (i know this is bad but he is a very trusted seller and i have only read good things from prior FEs)
There is no finalize button on my orders and it says processing?
-
You will not be able to finalize until the seller marks the pack 'in transit'. Much love.
-
And when you have FE'd, be sure to come back later and update your feedback once the package has arrived! There's nothing worse than seeing a sea of feedback on a vendor's profile that just says "FE", "FE, "FE"
Good luck.

"We are awaiting you PM and you FE."
All i see is
status: processing
auto finalize: N/A
Cancel
-
Whos the seller, is there a language barrier?
-
There is no language barrier the seller:
NoStress

He also has this in his bio thing:
LET US JUST MAKE THIS CLEAR FOR NEWBIES FE MEANS WE WANT TO BE PAID BEFORE SHIPPING!
I understand what it means... just how do i pay him early
This is what my account looks like (i placed 2 orders one order was .27BTC and the one from NoStress is the $11):
escrow (usd) escrow (btc) available
$11.84 ฿0.27 ฿0.01056657

Send him a PM telling him that you will FE when he marks the item as "in transit".
That's what you should do if you are sure you want to FE.
What you should *really* do is cancel the transaction and find a seller who doesn't require you to FE. Of course, that's easy for me to say - I've been here for years.
-
Thats weird man, you cant release the funds if the order is still processing. Have you tried to just have this convo with the seller?
Ask him how he purposes you finalize if the order hasnt been processed?
-
From what I read dont send ur BTC direct if he sends u a receiving address, always go through the escrow system ...
He needs to confirm and set the order to in transit before you can do anything just like what the others posted.

Absolutely.. thats what i was waiting for his reply to be, in which case he would be reported.
-
That clarifies a lot. I have come up to this same crossroad. I am awaiting for the seller to go ahead and hit that button so I can FE that shit. Anxiety is killing me, i'm going to burn through all my buds waiting for that page to say something different, it's only been like five hours :o :o :o :o :o

Just don't FE... vendors rip off newbies all the time because they don't know any better. Complete 5 transactions from 5 vendors who don't require it to build up your stats. If there isn't much you want, look for single dosage listings that are cheap, ~$10.

^^ this. +1. tell the vendor to cancel your order and go use a vendor that doesn't require FE. FE is the root of all scams in this place
