Title: Will an order in processing auto cancel if not processed?
Post by: Eckosky on February 21, 2013, 02:03 am
I have an order that has not been marked in-transit by the vendor but I have already received the order. I messaged the vendor but have not received a response, I'm just wondering if this will auto-cancel or just stay in processing forever? The option to cancel is there now but I don't want to ripoff the vendor as I have received the order.

just leave it processing until the vendor gets their shit together and changes it to in transit then finalise. i've never heard of an auto cancel in 18 months on here! you sure it wasn't a different order? if it's really bugging you, you could cancel the order and send the vendor the BTC if that's not against the rules. if you don't hear from the vendor in the next couple weeks message SR support or ask one of the mods/admins whoever on here. odd one.
the only thing to worry about is if you didn't encrypt your address with PGP then it's still on his account so if he's been busted the feds could get your details

i was under the impression that an order will actually auto-finalize if left alone long enough. i could definitely be mistaken though.

it will only auto finalise if the vendor changes the status to 'in transit'

I would just check once an evening, the vendor will change to in-transit in order to get paid.  One thing to remember is that some vendors also have real lives outside of sr,
