OK

I was not going to post about this but i feel i really have to.

You see last week I purchased a Planet Ocean from Trevor. I paid for it fast and then he emails me three photos of the watch I am to get. He then email me a tracking number.

I follow that number until a package gets to me but here is the strang kicker, ready???

I get a long cardboard box of the oddest shape. I quickly open and see a golf club, a driver!!!!

Now I am puzzled a little. Why use a gold club to smuggle the watch in??? So, I look into this a little more: I read the EMS slip and it says lots of Chinese googegligoo and then I discern the word TOY.... Ok , fair enough as I know many dealers resort to this watch inside the toy thing.

So, in believing that , I look first inside the box and NO watch. Then I see a bubble wrapped Allen key tool that will help me do this: open the bottom of the driver where I pretty knew was hollow and I was positive the watch was inside that.
So, i unscrew the three screws, take off the bottom plate and what do I see????

NO WATCH....

Ok so, the whole thing was a waste of time: no watch anywhere.

So, I am sad and email Trevor. I explain to him this strange occurence and then waited three complete days before a reply. He finally replies today with the statement that he finds this very strange and claims he never ships golf clubs, and he says the slip should say "TOY" (as it did anyways).

Then he says : I dont know what happened. Ship the golf club back, contact EMS and I will then mail you another watch.

But I scratch my head: why should I bother with the extra money and time to ship back a glof club??? There is NO watch to ship back??? What possible reason does he have to need a cheap ass "golf club" back???? That will not prove wether I ever received a watch or not??

The tracking number he gave me worked and it was on the box with the golf club. He says it is EMS ' fault so I should contact EMS to let them know they sent me the wrong package. Well, EMS from china hands all their parcels and courrier over to the government operated postal service CANADA POST so at this point, i would not be dealing with EMS directly but rather a third party....Odds are they will know nothing and will not be able to help me....

What should I do now? I have no watch, out $200 and a stupid sawed off golf club??


PLease advise.

Wow, a golf club, :shock: :shock:

I would def not ship that back especially if its a POS club. I would tell Trevor to send me the watch and thats it. There is no way that is your mistake or that you should spend additional money on sending it back, specially wihout getting a watch from him frist.

Hope that you get your watch back. Trevor has had some fall ins with some members but he has always come through and corrected it.

Take a picture of the box, the tracking number on it, and the golf club. That should be enough.

NO mail back.. shipping back golf club to china.. $$$. Just ask him to reship the watch... He can check with his shipper. could be shipper/logistic company made shipping error.
Good luck PF.. sorry to hear that news... :-(

You shouldn't have to ship the damn golf club back to china....IMO

it's an obvious mistake by trevor's supplier. so it is trevor's responsibility to re-ship you the watch.

yes, take a picture of the packages and golf club and show him as a proof.

he better ship you another one....why the hell should YOU spend $$$ to send that damn golf club.....and i bet that will cost a lot too....

sorry that it happened to you PF. :(

A golf club? lmao
So weird...my impression was that trevor and some of the "smaller" dealers shipped out directly from their own hands...i didn't think their packages went thru anyone else's hands...which just makes the mistake even weirder...

What a PITA. The jury's still out for me regards Trevor.
I'm sure that he will take care of you now that you've brought this to the forum. Good luck to you.

Tell me about it!!!!!!!!!! :shock:

He just emailed me, I guess early this morning and he still asked for the club.

So i replied: UH UH.... too much to send back.

He keeps saying for me to TELL EMS TO PICK UP THE TAB AS IT IS THEIR FAULT THEY SHIPPED THE WRONG PARCEL.... well, he remains an Asian with poor English as I told him at least two times that in Canada, EMS shipments are taken over by Canada Post and they have said to me they are not the ones that made a shipping mistake so I am left to deal with this shit.

But i will stand my ground and keep request POLITELY another watch or a refund to my Paypal.

Is that your adress on the package..? If yes... his fault...

That address is mine indeed.

All info on the slip is correct, right down to my name, spelled correctly too.

I bet you can part the club out, and make extra money on this deal.
