The target company was faffing around for the last few days, checking internally etc.
No they say they will send a ups represenative to inspect both boxes (manufacturer and delivery box).

failed and possible legal consequences if UPS steps in

Yep its over, might as well go into hiding in another country and change your identity.

I mean you can always play stupid and say you misplaced it, or somebody from your family played a trick on you. Did you EB a gold coin or something? I've never heard of a UPS driver going out of their way to do this.

Seems excessive to me, have they not even asked for pics ? Could be a scare tactic.


RE: eb failed? - Ashitbag - 04-15-2023

Woah, that is a fairly extreme measure. Do you care to mention the company? Was it a very high value item? Is this an address with a lot of DNAs/EBs associated with it recently? Seems like a lot of companies are really cracking-down recently, at least from what I have been reading.

I had this happen with a DNA box a couple years ago from fedex. They sent out a rep for an $80 item. Sometimes they do this shit at random maybe?

what legal consequences do you see? don't see it any different than the driver or representative asking you did you really not receive your package and asking you to sign a form.

haha, good one.

It wasn't a gold coin, ever done that succesfully? Funny that hardly anyone speaks about SE'ing precious metals, which are as close to cash as possible and will increase in value over time.

Very rarely done eb but both times with ups they wanted to send a rep/courier.
This item was less 120grams for sure. A long time ago, it was doomed to fail due to the weight of the item (watch from versace).
Can't say whether ups does it everytime but 100% on two attempts so far.

They asked pictures of the box first. I thought the motivation would be so that the box has to be opened and is no longer sealed, lowering the value for resale. After them sending several internal emails, they said they need someone to pick it up and inspect the box.

Company I won't mention but they were expensive headphones (not apple).
No such an attempt has not made at that address before.
It is getting harder for sure.

Big deal.

What are they hoping to achieve? All the rep will see Is an empty box which Is consistent with your claim, so let him waste as much time as he likes - he won't get anywhere.

case closed, no reply needed


RE: eb failed? - HEIS - 04-18-2023

I had something similar going once, sent pictures of the box and then a day later I was asked to send even more pictures, so at that point I just said that I wasn't expecting that they would need even more pictures so I threw it away, they acknowleged that since they no longer can investigate the matter they will proceed with refund.
