Just wanted to start off by saying this is such an amazing community that we have. I've been lurking hard for some time now but never had a reason to post until now.
Ok sooo.. I ordered a pack that is valued between 1k-2k from a very reputable vendor on AB. This was an international order that has successfully arrived before.
Shipping was slightly slow to begin with (noticeably longer than before) but still within the vendors policy. I received the tracking number which worked fine. I tracked the pack (no not over tor or my personal internet) and it made it all the way to my town and even to my PO (addressed to a box).
The tracking indicated a estimated delivery date. This is when the tracking updated from being at my PO to "Out for delivery". And then there was no update what so ever. I was in contact with the vendor who stated it should be there very soon. But, eventually, I had to dispute the case and won the dispute (vendor agreed to refund since they were on vacation).
Thats all fine and dandy even though I lost money in BTC and all that time (we all know time is money)... But, here is where the issue lies...
I never received a love letter nor did I receive the pack or a tracking update. Just nothing at all. No knock, no call. Nothing.
During the dispute the vendor unfortunately included the tracking number in clear text. Which I understand isn't good ospec.
Given the information above... Is it safe to order again? Is my address flagged? Is my name flagged? Both? Neither?
My normal job doesn't cover the cost of my bills at this time. I needed to figure this out weeks ago because my savings are quickly diminishing. And due to the circumstances I've decided to switch vendors to one who happens to be doing a sale at the beginning of next week that would help me get back on my feet immensely.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Grammer. Also I was shadowbanned so I don't think replies were working. I think the issue is fixed. Please lmk if not!
Get a reship to a different name, different address, different vendor.
