I bought a watch from non TD, I think most TD or non TD do the same thing, most likely ship to US base warehouse then ship from warehouse vis USPS to you address.

But my package has no update since 5 days ago, I don't even know is arriving in US or not.

Do anybody in US has issues with stuck package?

C'mon fella, you've been here 12 years with over a thousand posts and you are surprised you may have got rumped by a non TD ???

You might get lucky and it's just delayed by all the current chaos with USA and Chinese Importation, but seriously, don't hold yer breath ;)

You constantly have shat on other people in other threads, dismissing people, shitting on replicas without real input in the ZF RM055 and AP threads, you may not care in the past but you have built quite a nasty reputation and now this is the result. You reap what you sow.

To answer your question, 5 days with no movement is not uncommon in shipping from China to the US. Especially with the heightened mess of tariffs. 2 weeks to a month is common.

How many times have you been warned about your attitude & language towards your fellow members?

Post respectfully or don't post at all.

The very fact that I recognize your username, as do many staff, is not a good thing.

Consider this your last warning.

Mods, if this is not in the right place, please let me know but it is in reference to the OP's post.

Genuine question/comment from a newbie - I've learned a good bit here in the few days I've been a member and genuinely appreciate the time and effort folks put in to this forum but, if you shouldn't order from a non-TD, then how does a "dealer" become a "TD"? Before I learned about things on RWI, I made a purchase from an entity called "Aquaones" and was able to use PP with my CC but after I learned things on here, I did some research and have lots of red flags. I'm going to wait a few more days before I start to worry but here's what worries me:
1) This "dealer's" website was found doing a google search for something watch-related but not specifically for a rep rolex. Clicking the link took me to a decent layout with many different models of watches and I got excited, lol. A few hours after placing my order, I start getting marketing emails from them about watches I looked at but did not buy. When I clicked on the link, it took me to an Aquaones site with "Uh-oh. we didn't find what you were looking for" and the site was now displaying nothing but women's clothing.??
2) I sent an email to the CS address : "Why is this link and every other one you send me with a watch taking my to a page of nothing but dresses? This is very troubling to me. I even click a link from a google search that initially brought me to this business and it returns a page with "Uh Oh! We couldn't find what you're looking for." and I'm starting to feel like I'm being scammed. I keep getting "marketing" emails with the picture of a watch I looked at and the "link" to go look at it again takes me to the same page - nothing but dresses. What gives? The address given on the bottom of the page is the address for a residence, NOT a business." and got a reply stating:
"Dear customer,
Thank you for your interest in our products.
However, due to the Gapfil store being under maintenance for restocking, we would like to recommend you another store of ours: https://www.brodowatch.com/
Please refer to it. We will give you a discount code for 15% on your next order.
Thank you." and guess where the link for 15% off took me - right back to the dresses!
3) The "About Us" information at the bottom of the website(when I was able to get there and make the order) showed an address in Chicago, IL so that put me at ease initially. After the red flags, I checked the address given and it was for a single-family dwelling, not a business. I thought "okay, maybe that's their locally-based HQ over here.
4) When I visited the new web address given, there was no order found for my order number given me.

Man, do I ever feel duped! But again, I'll give a few more days given the recent tariff upset before I go to my CC company and see what my options are for an order paid for but not received. If anyone has any insight on what I've posted here, please let me know and thank you.

Well, it may have been better to start your own thread in GD but the best advice I can give you is that you have learned a lesson here, don't trade with sellers who aren't RWI TD's.

I'm not saying that ALL others are scams, but a very high percentage are ;)

Yes, agreed with @Reaps do a charge back on the cc like yesterday (y)

Apparently not enough.
I´m quite new to this forum myself and I am used to reading a lot in my professional life, so I read and read and read.

And the one thing just poking in your eyes is:
Do NOT order something from a dealer which is not a TD.

And this is the main message everybody new to this hobby should follow.
I don´t understand how anybody could not get this message within the first couple of hours reading here.
I'll give a few more days..
Why would you? :eek:
To make your sad story a little more interesting, if you then wil find out that you really have been scammed?

You don't have to be a smartass Mr. Know-it-all. Obviously YOU didn't read enough either, like the part where we're told to be civil to one another. You can shove your smartass comments you know where. I've been nothing but polite to everyone here but I can see that it's not in you to be that way to others. Why don't you just forget you ever read my post and go cause trouble somewhere else.

I forgot to add another example of you not reading, being that you're a professional reader who reads, reads, reads - I made the transaction BEFORE I became a member. It's assholes like you that spoil it for everyone with your "Ooh look at me being better than everyone else with how smart and awesome I am" and then flaming them for doing exactly what you claim to be so good at - "I´m quite new to this forum myself and I am used to reading a lot in my professional life, so I read and read and read." Apparently you're just a small person who can only feel bigger when you put somebody down. What a jerk you are and I don't understand why but you just proved that you're a hypocrite and a liar.

And again, one more example that you apparently didn't read like you say you do - straight from P..DR..D -
"Post respectfully or don't post at all." Seems to me that you really don't read at all like you try to portray...

What I want to know is where the hell are all you ignorant bellends coming from lately, been sacked from Maccy D's and getting bored ?

Hold your horses, fellas. We're all flying off the handle a bit too easy lately.

I know we have been here long enough, things get repetitive, etc etc. But let's not do this.

The second member stated he went to a NON-TD before he found us. Let's be helpful, if not, let's save it for another Looney Bin thread.

So you think the stupid laughing off topic comments are good and helping it? Like what I said if people don't respect, why should I ? Huh??

I chose non TD, I have my own reason.

Are you trying to get yourself tossed from the form? I don't understand your attitude or agressive responses. You chose a non TD for your own reasons. If you name them then someone might have information on how their order was shipped, etc. Overall, you should expect mixed responses, especially since you didn't offer any specifics. For all we know, you ordered from some random scammer website. Regardless, you should be more respectful and consider this perspective. Also, I would not recommend you speak to the mods like that.
