I have a few packages coming from Europe and USA.. I'm located in Canada.. sometimes it can take a bit longer than the 14 day escrow timer. I'm wondering when the timer gets really close to auto-finalize should I let it finalize even though I haven't received my package? Or, should I open a dispute to extend the escrow timer? I guess I'm just scared to loose my money in case of a shady vendor or whatever.. Anybody in this predicament before?
No, do not let it auto finalize. Dispute it and extend the timer. Very common scenario esp with international orders.
