Moreover, some warehouses find It somewhat difficult to track the movements of every Item that was picked on the same order.
An analogy Is when you do your grocery shopping- If It's one food commodity that you urgently need, you'd remember It. If you had a list of 10-15 or more, you'd probably forget to grab one.

In regards to this specific case, I think the missing item method might work as their online orders are no doubt picking up due to black friday. I think it's plausible that a worker overlooks a single item in a sea of orders they'll have to fulfill.

I look forward to reading the progress of your SE.

As such, use the missing Item on the SSD- 96 grams.

(11-28-2020, 03:14 AM)mothered Wrote: Judging by what you've written, you didn't sign for the delivery which suits the DNA perfectly.

In terms of the photo, where exactly was It taken?

(11-28-2020, 03:48 AM)neekhavod Wrote: it was left on the front steps, taken with flash.

The need to realize that a package that's marked as delivered, by no means concludes that you personally received It.

(11-28-2020, 04:37 AM)neekhavod Wrote: Does a double dip require a different method upon the second package arrival? If I were to double dip, could I then claim that the item was missing, or does it operate a different way? Are there certain parameters that need to be accounted for that could result in a double dip failing?

(11-28-2020, 04:57 AM)mothered Wrote: To not raise suspicion, always change your method when double (or triple) dipping.

For example, If you claimed the DNA In both Instances, It's extremely unlikely that the package did not make Its way to the destination twice In succession. The same obviously applies to every other method- two errors In a row of the exact same nature In close timing, Is not likely to happen.

(11-28-2020, 05:15 AM)neekhavod Wrote: Got it, do you think a missing item could work for this, considering that the package itself is 0.4lbs? Or, as I mentioned earlier, could I say that the only thing in the package was the air packs and the SSD wasn't in it?
