Title says it all. I don't get it,

One of LE's tactics is to physically observe you while monitoring a DNM's traffic.

You log onto a computer... They see a user log into market x

You look like you're doing email... They see messages being exchanged

You get up and walk away... They see the user log out

The delay let's you add some randomness

When you can't think of a reasonable explanation, expect OPSEC purposes.

I'd guess that it's so LE couldn't be monitoring vendor accounts then see exactly when you send a message and then theyll known you're on TOR and can bust you ASAP.
