Title: Accidental Early Finalization
Post by: jayydubbs on May 30, 2013, 01:00 pm
Hello guys :)

so Yesterday I used SR for the first time and I put my order through.  about 5 minutes later an option came up saying to "finalize"
I thought that this meant in order to ship the product I have to finalize.

Now looking back I'm pretty sure that was the button to send my money over to the vendor.
apparently this vendor is extremely trustworthy and I'm not worries about him stealing the item.

I'm just worried that he may not be able to see my address or something If i have already finalized.
like for example the page the sellers can see about all the buyers information is gone if the order is finalized.

can someone calm my nerves and confirm this for me?

Thank you so much guys!

Hi jayydubbs,

The option to finalize only becomes available once the vendor has marked the order 'in transit', meaning that your package would already have been labelled and most likely already sent out. :)

In future though please ensure you do not finalize an order before receiving it as once you leave the protection of the escrow system there is nothing that Silk Road can do for you in the event of something going wrong.
