PhilFree Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Call USPS and inquire about the package. You have no reason to worry about calling. Millions of people call everyday looking for packages. Your call will just be another to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamyohan Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Hi PhilFree, I already called the USPS ans they asked about the sender name. What should.I do? Since I dont want to spell TD name randomly Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilFree Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Hi PhilFree, I already called the USPS ans they asked about the sender name. What should.I do? Since I dont want to spell TD name randomly Thanks You shouldn't need the senders name. Call with the tracking number you have and tell them you would like to track a package. They can tell you what's going on, you can also ask the sender to start a trace. Usually when a sender starts a trace it gets the package moving. Whether this is coincidence or not I can't say.

Jkay Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Just use the USPS problem resolution email tool on the USPS tracking pages. Why bother with a phone drone who will not help you anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williamyohan Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Thanks Jkay and PhilFree. I already tried to contact them through e-mail yesterday. I also called them few hours ago (speaking to representative), and he asked me to make an inquiry that required a sender name (TD). I said I don't know and he said he can't make inquiry without the sender name. I hope it will arrive soon. Need to wait patiently Thanks for all the help William Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williamyohan Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Hi, I speak to USPS people when picking up my other parcel. He said it still stuck in the Post Office near the airport. I don't know what to do except waiting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamyohan Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Hi, Usually how long it will take for the product to be returned to TD? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilFree Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Hi, Usually how long it will take for the product to be returned to TD? Thanks It won't be returned to the sender unless you don't receive it. They give you plenty of chances to get your parcel. If it gets sent back to the shipper, it could take several weeks before they receive it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Interesting thread, misery loves company ;-) I have a package sent via Registered Mail from Germany that cleared Customs on the 15th, then has "Arrived At Unit" in the Zip Code next to me on the 16th. No more activity. No package. What's in the package? A '64 Breitling 806. The third OEM Navitimer to me in the last month. First one arrived damaged from Argentina. I returned it. The second one had the 12hour register unresettable. So I returned that one back to the UK. And now I have a minty '64 806 stuck in nowhere-land. The Venus 178 gods are giving me the lightning bolt!

Jkay Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 It just took four weeks for a small 11 ounce box to go across the border from the US to Canada. 1st Class mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alterego Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Very educating experience reading all the opinions about USPS v/s the other guys. There is one comment in particular that is food for thought. Indeed FEDEX and the "other" carriers will do their best efforts so that your parcel is checked (actually inspected) by Customs. I don't know for sure if they make money turning replicas to Customs, but it wouldn't surprise me. I have lost two packages containing reps that were consfiscated having been shipped with FEDEX. I had to pay a stiff penalty and the watches were destroyed by Customs. I think the safest way to get your parcel is using USPS. It may take longer but the chance of losing your watch is far lesser. Take care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take care Private carriers are allowed to x-ray packages and check the contents. Where as the postal service needs reasonable suspicion to check a package.

williamyohan Posted April 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Yeah USPS is sometimes really slow, but I already recieved the package that I bought from Ken (5 days difference from the watch) In addition to that, I ordered PAM 111 yesterday and and let see which one arrive first.

williamyohan Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Hi Phil, when they said that the watch is already out from the customs. Is there a chance that the watch will be re-check again by the customs. haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see a reason for a watch being recalled to Customs also there was something seriously amiss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazed7 Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Eek. I am afraid of this happening with a watch I bought from Canada, even though I live just across the border. And seems my fears came true. I was told it would only take 3-4 business days and it's now 3 business days and USPS tracking doesn't even show them having the package. According to Canada Post it arrived in NY yesterday though. I'm only irked cause this method of shipping (Expedited USA, but not really. same as USPS priority) was an $18 upgrade.
