Note
First-vendor checklist, thirty seconds
The six things to check before ordering from a vendor you have never used.
Before ordering from a vendor you have never used, run this checklist. Takes about thirty seconds.
- Dispute ratio under 5 percent?
- Finalisation ratio over 95 percent?
- Last twenty reviews consistent with older ones?
- PGP key published on the vendor page?
- Average shipping time reasonable for the vendor's stated location?
- No FE-only requirement?
All six yes: proceed with a small first order. Any no: read the recent reviews before deciding.
