Hi everyone,
New here. Just made my first purchase and the vendor wants me to finalize before shipment. I'm okay with that since the order is small, but when I go to the orders page, I am not able to click on finalize—instead, hovering over says the option is available in 2 days.
Vendor tells me he's not seen this before. Any ideas?
-
Because the vendor account is new. Vendors are not allowed to ask for FE at all until they have been a vendor for X days or have X amount of sales.
I don't recall the numbers.

Wow, a noob vendor asking a noob buyer to FE ... he's not allowed to ask until he receives 35 feedback posts.
What are you looking for? We can probably recommend someone who wont make you FE.

Yeah, I thought about this before I placed my order, but I figured since he was new, it was less likely he would ask for a FE. Since I can't cancel (?) this because the vendor accepted the order, I guess I'm stuck with him. I read somewhere there is a cost to the buyer for canceled transactions.
I was also attracted to this vendor because he was in the US when most of the sellers for coke are overseas. My logic (which I acknowledge could be totally wrong) was that a domestic purchase would be less likely seized.
I hate being a noob but we're all noobs at one point ...

Correct on both counts n00b. ;)
If the order is canceled at this point and you were to be refunded, then you would NOT get the SR commision back from the deal.
Also, domestic orders vs. anything that has to get on a plane or a boat or go through customs is usually considered a "safer" bet.
