Adorama Disappoinment
Nov 27, 2016 21:53:55 #
It is UPS taking shortcuts. I ordered a Nikon D810 from B&H. Their shipping page stated I would have to sign for the package. I tracked the shipping of the order on the UPS site. The UPS site indicated I would have to sign for the delivery. On the day if the delivery, I received an email from UPS that the package was signed for when delivered. I ran to the front porch and found the package set on the top step. I was the only one home and never signed nor was there even a knock at the door. If I have a valuable delivery coming via UPS, I now notify them that I will pick it up at their distribution center.

That camera is about $650. Check with UPS, but I think their policy is that something that expensive requires a signature.

This is not the fault of Adorama, but it is your fault sir. You didn't notify anyone in advance of your schedule. I have dealt with deliveries with companies, UPS and FedEx for over 40 years and have not had the problem you have described with anyone. Suck it up and LEARN something from your experience instead of directing blame elsewhere.

Seems to me that you have a great deal of responsibility for your problems with this camera delivery. It is not the seller or the shippers fault that you could not be there to receive your delivery AFTER you had already placed the order. Did you leave the UPS driver a note at your door? That usually works. You complain that you have not heard from Adorama in 4 weeks. Let's see, in your last conversation with them you told them you were going to stop payment on your credit card and that you were turning the situation over to an attorney. What did you expect them to do, give you a cocktail party?
Would you like some cheese with that little whine?

That's you. I don't have that option.
You don't have an option for personal responsibility? Really? If that is the case than you had better get your parents to place the orders for you from now on.

I,ve had Fed Ex pull the same fraud but I got the package so I didn't follow through with it. But it is really fraud and forgery and the law should get involved and prosecute for it.

Same identical thing happened to me. Dropped off at my door.Item was over $1000.00 and UPS notified me it was delivered and signed for. I live in a senior highrise. It was left outside my door and anyone could have taken it. I would have heard a knock at my door so that means they didn't even bother to knock.

How in the bloody heckaloonies can a store after they completed the transaction, got the package to a shipper, shipper accepted the package can it be their responsibility to insure it gets to the right place? Puh lease explain that one oh great one. Once UPS took possession of the package it fell to them to get it to the receiving party.
What a tome this has become......

If Adorama doesn't request signature then it's their responsibility if a package disappears. What happens if you're home and don't hear the UPS delivery and the package is dropped off then is stollen??

UPS took possession of an item to deliver from the owner to the soon to be new owner. UPS did not take ownership of the item. The transaction is not complete until the purchaser has the item safe in their hands. (simplified) Similar to a store, the item isn't yours because you placed it in your cart. The cart could be considered UPS, except in this case, your the driver and will take far better care of item during shipment to the cashier.. o.O well you get the idea anyway, but I'm not lawyer and not all laws are logical around here...
Edit: It's not the stores responcibility to get it there, that is the carriers job. But it is still the stores item and problem to deal with.

I think this thread has the potential for 20 pages. Let's keep this going folks and see where we can get. Oh, remember, there shouldn't be anything factual in your post, and, if you have no formal legal training, be sure to quote the law even if it's not applicable to this case. Carry on!
