In a phrase such as «¿En cuánto se los deja el vendedor?» does "en cuanto" still signify "as soon as"? If not, can you explain the meaning of this question?
Thank you in advance. |

How much will the seller ask for it? (Not sure how idiomatic is this in English, fix it as applicable, but the sense is "how much is the seller going to be asking for it"... after some back and forth...)

Then If I want to say this phrase En cuanto termine de comer voy al super mercado, the translation would be As soon as I finish to eat , I'm going to the super market.
I don't know if my attempt is accurate but, if you have a better translation, please you correct me, if I'm a wrong like, you must correct me, so I can understand better the kinds and way of translate some sentences in English. I'm grateful for your help.

Yes, and yes.
A side note: please note that "¿En cuánto se los deja?" has an accent, and "en cuanto lo vea,..." doesn't.

Right!
(You say "gracias por su ayuda", formally, if you don't know the other person and address him/her politely.) (You can say "gracias por tu ayuda" if you have familiarity with the person... or in an informal context.)
