Delivery on a darknet market is slower and less trackable than ordinary shipping, and the difference is the whole point of the anonymity. Packages move through dead drops and local couriers rather than a single tracked line, which means the window is wider and the tracking is thinner. Most delivery disputes come from a gap between what the listing promised and what the window actually was.

The practical move is to read the delivery estimate on the listing and treat it as a range, not a date, and to keep the order open until you have actually received and checked it. Confirming early because the estimate passed is how people lose a dispute they should have won, because the moderator is working from what arrived, not from what the calendar said should have arrived.
