chrono903 Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 So I purchased a watch and received the tracking #. I put the tracking # in and enter the 4 digit validation # and it keeps telling me it's the wrong validation #. Am I missing something? Thanks, Thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfreeman420 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 If you are in the US just use www.usps.com. Also it may take a couple days to get in the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martyd3 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 No trick ... It is extremely slow. Sometimes it never shows up until delivery takes place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrono903 Posted January 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 No trick ... It is extremely slow.

MikeC65 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 I had this problem too and it just magically stopped happening. I think it's a glitch on EMS's web site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section8 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 You'll get that for a couple of days, the system is really slow. Just try and be patient Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craytonic Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 If you use Apple's Safari browser EMS will never work, you have to stick it in firefox, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namor Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 There definately IS a trick: Sometimes the goods are ready delivered in your hands and the Tracking No. is still not in their system... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrono903 Posted January 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 guys, ok, i will try to explain this one more time for those of you who keep referencing the tracking #. IT IS NOT THE TRACKING # IT IS THE 4 DIGIT VALIDATION CODE i type it in and it tells me it is the wrong #. Anyway, i will just watch my mail.

Thom Thom, we are joking a little bit (but I'm sure everyone here knows the feeling when waiting for a new watch...). You just have 2 choices: 1.) mail your dealer and validate your 4 digit code (perhaps there's a typo ?) 2.) Try other Websites who are involved in the transport (like USPS) - like stated above. Otherwise you just have to wait patiently like we all do when Tracking doesn't work properly (which is very common)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenacious_b Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 yes; the trick is that by the time the tracking works at all, the watch is usually on your wrist already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

namor Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Have you tried a different browser ? I can't log in to RWI with Firefox - but works well with Opera... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section8 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 oh i know what you're talking about. Did you check to see if the code is case-sensitive? Otherwise I'm not sure what to tell you. I've had problems with those things before, if you keep refreshing the page it'll generate new codes..maybe another code will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrono903 Posted January 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Have you tried a different browser ? I can't log in to RWI with Firefox - but works well with Opera... now thats a good suggestion, it doesnt work with aol or explorer oh i know what you're talking about. Did you check to see if the code is case-sensitive? Otherwise I'm not sure what to tell you. I've had problems with those things before, if you keep refreshing the page it'll generate new codes..maybe another code will work. Its all numbers. Thank you both for the help, really I am not as anxious as this post would imply. I will just watch my mail. In case anyone was wondering, i bought a sash sub. i have a nymphomariner also and will do some side by side shots when it comes. Thanks again! thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobsen1 Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 Something I noticed today on the site. When you go to the tracking site, the 4 digit val code will be let's say 1234, then once you type in you tracking number, the 4 digit code changes to a new number (at least it did for me)... So make sure you're not memorizing the first number and not catching the switch... Also I'm using firefox on a XP pro machine if that matters. Maybe get the IE tab extension and see if that helps? I'm also very curious as to when my watch will arrive. I paid wednesday, and got the tracking last night, so I'm wondering if it will show up today. it's my first rep, so I'm wicked excited right now....
