IMO, if you place an order and it has not gone in transit or gotten a pm from said vendor, that's not a vendor you probably want to be doing business with, since time is money.
IF you are gonna vend vend and do it right it you are gonna fuck around, fuck around somewhere else.
The vendors that do as I've said above and get product in transit the next day or same day or send you PM's make money and they do it because they are professional about their services and that's who I do business with, I don't place orders with newbie vendors and I'm 100% sure of the vendors I do place orders with and they will get weekly business from me.
