Just goes to show how this world has become. No morals or ethics anymore. People only take and do not think of the problems that they cause.
Hope you get this all sorted out. Best of luck Greg! |

I think so, since the seller insured for $5000 (he said this is the max).
BTW, USPS is worse than Fedex - they just paid $100 and some change, I forgot the exact amount. I even write to their office in DC. no use. That is why I only buy from AD or "face to face" deal now. Last edited by zlin08033; 15 January 2010 at 12:39 PM.. Reason: + |

bad publicity is something they don't want and litigation costs that go beyond the claim is often the reason to settle for less. But I don't think you can supena witnesses across borers and the witness often has the choice of location if they object to the location. Quote:

Every time a Registered Package changes hands it is signed for by a postal worker. They keep it locked at all times and when it is shipped it is in locked pouches. Max insurance is 50K. If a Registered Package ever gets 'lost' at least one person will loose their job. Also this is the only way Rolex Serviced Centers will accept a watch for service. UPS and Fed-Ex will be returned by Rolex unserviced. Registered Mail is treated very different than other types of mail. =) maverick Additional: I once had a person claim he did not receive a package from me. I went to the post office and they traced it own to the post office near his office. I called him with that info, then later I got a nice email about the watch. You will get a signature card back if requested. Last edited by maverick; 15 January 2010 at 01:18 PM.. Reason: additional info |

Greg,
I just read your post and the entire thread -my stomach hurts. Good Luck, we are all hopeful for a happy ending - hey, if it can happen for "docs" drama a few weeks ago, nothing is impossible. ...and while there may be a totally honest answer to this, I fear that someone got a stolen Rolex from Santa this year. GOOD LUCK!!! -Pete

Then I guess he did not sent as Registered - since he said the max insurance allowed amount is $5k. The problem was we knew package was in the mail delivery man's hand, he signed it but "forget" where he delivered it! How can USPS let this happen? I'm the one who supposed to sign for it. BTW, do you know what kind mail max insurance allowed amount is $5k? It has been one year, I'm giving up here. Thanks. Quote:

Its a risk
I once shipped a watch via USPS that was fully insured for the amount of the watch. The company I shipped the watch to claimed they never received the watch, so I made a claim with USPS. USPS provided a signature confirming delivery, so they denied the claim. The investigator showed the signature to the comapny, who in turn said that person did not work there. USPS said they kept their end of the bargain because it was delivered as evidenced by the signature. I was suddenly left without a watch and 2,000. I don't trust any of them. From that point forward I bought my next two watches from an AD. I worry too much about the shipping.

Like everyone else said, I hope Fedex comes up with this and Vitrix, that's a very nice thing to do to offer to help.
I think that line: "FEDEX Has very good lawers" is a standard reply, I was shipping some equipment for work, using a SONY FEDEX number, it too got lost, they refused to do anything and I brought up legal action. I got that EXACT same response to which mine was: "SO DOES SONY" Gee...what do you know, they "found" it after that, the package and been opened and the equipment used, (I'm an Engineer, I can electronically log in and find these things out), probably by some mail room clerk, but at least we got it back. I say sue their A** and I wish you the best of luck! |

Theft from interstate shipment is a federal crime, so just to add to the presure upon Kinkos and FedEx report the events to State Attorney General, Local Police and the US Attorneys office. Likely you will get a bit of a run around but this might match up to something that is already being worked. Just a thought.

And don't forget to ask for 5 million in punitive damages. I would supeona the clerk from Kinkos and everyone on duty at Fedex, Memphis, TN. You can win this Greg. I also think we could help, by calling Fedex and telling them we aren't going to ship or accept packages by their company until this is resolved. I've already done so. I really hope it works out for you Greg.

Their is a member here (who has not posted here in a long time ) that is a Fed Ex Commissioned Police Inspector. Yes they have their own police force just like Postal Inspectors that are commissioned officers. Maybe if he is reading this he can PM you.
I went to mail a SS/YG GMT IIC that I picked up for a member here from my AD as a favor. I went to Fed Ex/Kinkos. The young tweaker like pimply face Kinkos kid's face lit up when I told him their was a Rolex inside. I grabbed the box out of his hands and hot footed it to the post office where it was insured for the full amount and sent without incident. Good luck Greg. |

Greg,
Good morning, I hope this will have a good ending soon. It is to bad this had to happen. Again I think how could someone steal a Rolex with serial numbers, it is a hot item which will difficult to sell. |

Dont forget to get the video camera tapes from the Fed Ex Office showing you dropping it off. Might help.
