And to be even clearer. The biggest problem I have with the situation is Sead's response. He told Slaughterer to go search for the watch and is basically trying to wash his hands of it. That is NOT the proper resolution. I would rather take the hit on the watch then have Sead tell Slaughterer to go look for it. He has nothing to do with the order other than it being shipped directly to him at my request. I feel bad enough that Slaughterer took his time going back and forth with me on this. He went out of his way to make some calls to see if there were problems with shipping lately and he didn't even have to do that. I am grateful for his help in the matter and definitely owe him a beer for taking up his time on this.
What did "go look for it" mean? Have Slaughterer check his front/back door and anywhere else it might have been dropped off (seems very reasonable)? Or do an investigation of the delivery service/make the calls to try and get them to trace it (why couldn't you do that so Slaughterer wouldn't have to)?
Your situation doesn't have a good resolution (other than a miracle delivery): you've ordered an illegal item from another country and had it shipped other than to your location and it hasn't turned up and we all know that the tracking generally stinks when we order from TD's. Posting your experience was good; this kind of thing happening from time to time with a TD is probably normal but IF multiple similar experiences started to pop up on the boards then the members could react to it by going to another TD. (All my opinion, of course, which could be/probably is wrong.)
