Please forgive typos im using my phone to post this while at work.
I placed a commission order of $55 back on 6/13/2018, and at the 2 week point asked for a status update from the person. They said they havent touched it, and that their queue was rather large and they're working in order. Looking at their queue, im not even listed (then again it could be the journal avatar icon limit on FA), but its going on a month and i still haven't been given a basic WIP or sketch or listed on the queue.
This person also keeps busting out adopts on a near 2-3 adopts per week to raise money, with a few WIPs and posts of current/finished works in between.
Im honestly starting to get rather ancy on if im going to get a progress report or not, as my other commission I placed with someone else around the same time who also had a similarly sized queue has given me a WIP, while this person has not.
Just. At what point should i worry? At what point should i ask for a refund?

The lack of your place in the queue is not due to FA. You can place as many as you want. It's just past the limit they don't display as images. Search for your user name and it should be there. If not they have not added you to that queue. It might not be the one they are working from. If so it's bad business practice on their part.
The good news is that they are still talking to you. I'd ask about your place in the queue next. Mention you don't see it.
I'd ask for a refund no latter than 5 months after payment and if one isn't provided within 2 weeks file a dispute and escalate ASAP. Whatever you do don't let Paypal's deadline slip past and do NOT fall for any requests to mark the dispute as resolved if you don't have either art or money in hand. You can't try again.
"I'm currently working on many others, I can't give you an ETA as of right now, sorry ;-;' rn I'm juggling between 10 different notes about comms to different people and I can't be taking on more wips than that or I'll overwork myself
I'll let you know when I get to yours"
It's leaving a bit of a sour taste in my mouth.
