when you leave russia, your 3 months ends, the issue a new one when you re-enter, for another 3 months
there is a way to get it extended, but like everything else in russia, its a pain in the ass & time consuming. its much easier to cross a border & return (providing you have a multi entry visa)
If you get to Vladivostok and its close to expiring, I'm sure Yuri (customs broker) can fix it for you. I have his contact info if you need it. He's a good guy.
I dunno what happens when you are longer than 3 months, I've heard of people that had no problems, others that had problems. depends on the mood of the border guard I think.
