Dude, you'd be a fool to leave escrow and finalize.

1. Don't finalize until you have opened the package and inspected it.

Easy enough.  If there is any issues, press resolve and get your money back as per policies.

Escrow works great, but everyone always presses finalize too early..   they get excited and want to help out the vendor. . don't press it until you've tried the product out. .....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is that what happened?

SR support does not like scammer vendors. If they believe someone is a scammer then you will be refunded in full.

At least you stayed in escrow, Ive been burned by finalising early before. You'll probably get your coins back, it takes a while though. Patience is a virtue, which many people including me have no patience for. Research vendors thoroughly on these forums before ordering to avoid these kind of scenarios. Peace

Well fortunately for you then you are in escrow. State your claim to SR support in an non emotive factual manner and if as you say the vendor is scamming then you can expect a full refund.

So my question now is, MendicinoMistress was banned over 16 hours ago, when the SR came back up a little while ago I looked and I still have an order placed. I really would like to get my coins out of escrow and to an actual reliable vendor. I can sympathize with the fact the SR is having problems and all but if there is a vendor who GETS BANNED FOR SCAMMING a large group, why are the ones in escrow STILL in escrow? I just want to get this all over, done with, and behind me.
