I'm curious about some "alternate" higher end retailers, as well - I haven't seen many posts/vouches for retailers outside of the "usual" bunch, such as Saks/Neiman/Bloomingdale's/Nordstrom.
A good place to start, if you haven't already, would be to check their terms of service. I know Net-A-Porter isn't liable for lost/stolen packages - unless something has changed since I last checked - and Frwd is also not liable, and requires a signature for all shipments, which they consider valid proof of delivery regardless of who you claim did or didn't sign it.
I am currently attempting Yoox and Luisa Via Roma, and plan to attempt Ssense and Baltini - possibly Harrod's and Cettire or Italist, as well - in the next week or two.
I'm a bit on the fence about taking the risk of shopping with Baltini, Cettire, Italist, or similar "secondary designer retailers" but figure I can file a chargeback if something goes amiss, such as damaged/inauthentic merch/genuine order not received, and if it works out, it's a great way to order high end/designer items without having to put out as much cash up front.
I believe I've seen a few success posts with Ssense, but know I've seen a couple failures as well. Their TOS seems to indicate they may be liable for lost/stolen packages, so I'm likely going to take the risk there, and will update you in a few weeks if it works out.
