Title: After how long can a buyer cancel an "In Processing" order?
Post by: colorblack on April 19, 2013, 11:57 pm
Hey guys.. refresh my memory on this. Is it after 4 days of "Processing" after which a buyer can cancel an order? Or 5?
Placed an order on Monday night and its still in processing. Had a word with the vendor after a few messages and they responded it will ship on Friday (WHAT A FAST VENDOR), yet it's still in processing. I'm pretty sure the "Cancel" button should become active by tonight right?
Definetly learn a lesson everytime I try a new vendor. Better to stick to your trusty old vendors folks! Ordering on Monday and as of Friday night still not shipped is outrageous, especially when the vendor profile says all orders ship within 48 hours.

Ah well..

It takes 4 days of being in 'processing' , before you have the option to cancel. Much love.

Ok, thanks. That's what I figured. So I guess I'll be able to cancel tonight. Can't stand that shit (letting an order hang the entire week). But that's nobodys fault but my own!
My advice folks is always pay the premium for faster shipping. Not worth saving $20-$30bucks and then waiting a week for a vendor to ship your shit.

It depends on the product and price. Some deals are worth waiting for. I've waited once 3 weeks. But glad I did. Never got a deal like it since.

Do the vendor the courtesy of letting them know you cancelled. I'm told they get no message about it. The order just drops off the roster. And they sometimes ship before noticing you cancelled. Especially if you used cleartext for address. So be a good citizen. And if they shipped and it comes, be ready to pay. Kind of dumb stiffing a drug dealer who has your address. Even if it's just a drop.
