I think that the order timer should stop when a Buyer or Seller make a dispute and the timer should only restart when the Buyer or Seller responds to the dispute.
I had a sitation this week where a buyer was not responding, they asked for a 3 day extension which I granted but they did not respond for another two days. The timer was still ticking, my order became two days late (“Ridiculously late”) even though I was waiting for buyer to respond the dispute. I think it is very unfair that the order timer continues even if they buyer (or seller) is not responding.
