I've ordered from astro 7-8 times and the entire turnaround has not taken more than 10 days on any of those occasions. I'm not saying you in particular, but a lot of guys beat around the bush and want to email back and forth. I've said it before, send your order, your payment info, and shipping address at all once. He is slow getting to emails but he probably gets a ton of emails every day. Sending everything in one email eliminates the back and forth. At this point, it should be pretty obvious what form of payment is most convenient for reasonably sized orders.
