When i’ve had my pork pie and mushy pies for lunch i’ll see if I can dig up the old thread and abuse him/her/it some more Hey @pickledbeetroot, let's not bring @MrTimeZone into it, isn't this thread about a TD? @MrTimeZone is still suspended if I recall correctly so not a TD right now.

FudgyDocker 3,505 Posted August 1, 2019 I immediately thought MTZ in my original reply, because of the 'wholesale price, if it's seized, tough shit' scenario, and also stressed 'TD's not on suspension'. Are we all thinking the same thing here, that someone has been stupid and bought from a suspended TD? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCShrek 494 Posted August 1, 2019 Hey OP, I just had a couple of watches show Outbound and cleared customs after about 3 weeks from ISC NYC. Previously was showing the same as you see so they may be just backed up or plain fucking lazy...who knows. Anyway, yours may clear soon if it hasnt already. @Mark3t Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who is the TD? At least give us the initials!! It will help, honestly. Also, the exact date you placed the order may help.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GingerApple 7,303 Posted August 2, 2019 What sort of sicko doesn't have an interest in plumbing? So strange. You West Coast types are so weird, with your celery juice obsessions and whatnot. Anyway, I'm not sure what further advice we can give you. We said contact the mods - end of. Unless you're thinking of kidnapping the TD or blackmail or similar?

GenTLe 1,509 Posted August 8, 2019 I'm not sure what a TD has to do with a postman that stole or lost a watch anyway. Not all the TDs cover customs confiscation and, even who do, they need a custom letter to proceed with reshipment. If the customs says they didn't took it either it got lost (once it took 7 months for a small parcel from Rome to Milan, it probably slipped out of the sorter conveyor and recovered when they did big maintenance on it ...) or it got stolen. I don't think this is TD responsibility, only very bad luck... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
