I know this may differ from vendor to vender, but is there sort of a general consensus about who would/should be held liable if a pack doesn't arrive? Would a pack not arriving generally mean that it was confiscated by LE or the post office? I can't think of another reason it would just never arrive other than the vendor never sending it. Wouldn't in both of those scenarios, the vendor should be wholly at fault due to either a lapse in their stealth causing it to get noticed or their negligence in sending the item?
I only ask this because I've had my first instance of something not arriving at all and the vendor only gave me half of my money back which seems a little ridiculous to me. Maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't see how I, after waiting this whole time and literally having nothing to do with the process post sending my money, could be held 50% at fault for not receiving my package. Isn't it literally the vendor's job to safely get the order to me whenever I pay him? I feel like he failed to complete his part of the deal and is just holding the money just because there's no way for me to get it back.
Btw the vendor was MartyMcHigh on Nucleus, who literally called me 'an idiot' for thinking the way that I do and being upset over the situation. But I've already written my review on his page so that's not really necessary here.
Edit: I seem to be making a bad impression on people with this post. I think I'm coming off as entitled, when I truly don't mean to. I genuinely want to know what people think about my particular situation and similar situations.
All depends on the vendors policy. Don't like their policy, don't order. If they say they are not responsible for lost packages then they are not going to accept responsibility. Not too hard here.
