Ordered an item for overnight delivery (about $80 shipping) and
THEY WON'T GIVE ME THE TRACKING NUMBER. "Company policy for
security reasons". WTF? Every other online vendor I've EVER dealt
with has IMMEDIATELY provided a tracking number upon shipment.

F*ck 'em, I say. No part of the BW enterprise (Ritz Camera, Greg
Norman Collection golfwear, Fishing Only, RitzPix) is ever getting
a penny from me again.

I ordered from them online and had the tracking sent to me via
email... no problem...


Stay tuned boys and girls, will Obi Wan Kenobi return to this forum
today to report that his package did, indeed, arrive "overnight" as
promised, or will we be left to draw our own conclusions from an
ominous silence?

The point I was making - had you been reading along - wasn't whether the
item would indeed arrive on time (and in fact it did). The point is
BW/Ritz's idea that they feel entitled to know the tracking number
THEMSELVES but refuse to provide it to THEIR CUSTOMER. This even though
THEY NO LONGER HAVE ANY CONTROL over the package once it leaves their
warehouse and is in FedEx's (or another carrier's) custody.

Why would their online ordering be different?
