Yeah, it used to be I could pull the trigger on a watch during one of the late night shows, then after sleeping on it, wake up in the morning and go online and cancel my order if I had changed my mind. I did that many times. Now, the window of opportunity to cancel online is maybe a few minutes to an hour .... after that, "sorry, we can't cancel now, it's in the shipping phase". That is so totally redicuolous! If it hasn't yet been picked up by the truck and left your warehouse the customer should be able to cancel the order. __________________ "He who marches in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

That is not unusual. Most companies can not cancel when the item is in the "picking phase".

Someone or something ie moving around the warehouse with a list of items to pick and you can't get that picker to stop. They are probably picking more items than your watch. I used to work in a warehouse and that is how I know.

That's true John, but it is not rocket science to send an item specific stop order to the warehouse if the item has not yet been picked up by the carrier. __________________ "He who marches in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Not sure how things work on shop but I too work in distribution and it could be simple or almost a needle in a haystack to pull one item.

Cant blame the shop this time around. Thats been their practice for quite some time now.

Have you ever tried to cancel from WOW or any online etailer? Its the same when its in a certain stage you cant cancel no matter what you do.We want faster shipping and thats a trade off IMO. If you send it back your (groggy) order will only cost you the shipping.

Let them keep blowing!

The shop does their job, gets the order in process fast, shipping Tens of thousands of packages each day and you want them to go find ONE LITTLE BOX and stop it.

Now if they waited a day or two before they started processing then maybe more people could cancel.

I hope they keep blowing and keep shipping fast. I remember all the threads here when they shipped slower.

No good deed goes unpunished these days.

Maybe someone needs to invent a Breathalyzer for computers. __________________ God put fools on this earth as a cheap form of entertainment to the rest of us!

Eh Mambo, Hell Yes it's their fault when I can't cancel with-in a few hours!

I didn't wait a day, 72hrs, a week to decide! UNDER 12 hrs! Do you know that it takes longer to digest some foods?

Trust me the watch hasn't "Moved' anywhere in less than that time! My point...........It hasn't left the building YET! And I'd be willing to bet my NEW GD 7750 that it's not even in SHIPPING YET! __________________ But you & me, we know we got nothing............but time.

With all due respect, in your own words you screwed up here. Shop may not be acting in a way you're happy with, but where did it all go wrong? I don't think it's right to expect world class service to rectify your mistake. I'm just sayin'.... __________________

Not sure how this works. I have only sent back one watch that I needed to send back without looking at it. This was because a watch I wanted even more came up after this one was on the way. I could not aford them both. When the UPS guys shows up can you just write on the box refused and hand it right back to him without paying anything? On my package I put on a new return label on it and had to pay $ 10 bucks to send it back.

Does ShopNBC give you any trouble for a refused package. I would think they would cut you off or something for sticking them with the postage both ways when it was not defective. __________________

That is not what i'm saying,.........The Shop BLOWS because (Are you with meh) They DON't even have a CANCELLATION POLICY! Kinda like................BP OIL NOT HAVING A OIL LEAK POLICY! Or would you prefer that I "Try It Out" for a week (Unwrap it, Size it. sweat it up) and then stuff it back in a box and return it like "Other's" on this site?

A company of this size and magnitude to say that they don't have a cancellation policy has got to be against some law somewhere! __________________ But you & me, we know we got nothing............but time.

I'm kinda leaning towards what most of the guys are saying. You're getting too upset over this issue. Like Adam said, just refuse the package and it will go back or

send it back and eat the shipping as a lesson learned. Shop used to be more tolerant with cancellations until management changed. Policies have changed as well. After all, they want you to keep it, LOL. Is it right? Well at least they'll take it back and give you a refund instead of a store credit like some of these retail stores still do. Man I hate that !!! JMHO. __________________ Ignorance is bliss. That's why I try to know as little as possible.

That's funny because I placed an order perfectly for a watch that I DID WANT... and it never went through on their end.... and there was nothing they could do about that either. __________________

They want to sell the watch so if they get it locked in maybe you will keep it and not loose the shipping both ways. I noticed when I ordered my Neptune the other day it started in Pompano Fl so it didn't come from SNBC They only pay return shipping if its broken. I got one that the strap was to short and they told me to bad I had to pay to ship it back reserveman View Public Profile Send a private message to reserveman Send email to reserveman Find all posts by reserveman Add reserveman to Your Contacts #27 Today, 12:43 PM Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: BIG NYC Posts: 924 Real Name: Kevin
