I bought a piece of wood furniture on my Amex Personal Platinum card back in November. It was not delivered until the end of March. Unfortunately, a bottle containing liquid was placed on it and it leaked causing the bottle to stick to the wood. This must have gone on for a number of weeks because it was difficult to remove to the point when it was, it damaged the wood.

I want to file a purchase protect claim with Amex, but everything I see says the 90 days runs from the date of purchase, not the date of delivery. I looked at the policy on Amex's website and it does not define "Date of purchase." Does anyone have any experience with this? I am in the process of getting all my documentation together to file with Amex but it would be nice to know in advance.

Thanks.
you are leaving critical information out. when did they charge your card? when it was ordered or when it shipped? i only like doing business places that charge when item is shipped, especially if there will be a delay.

have you tried contacting the company? they are refusing to make good? have you posted reviews and escalated? to me it seems any reasonable company would take care of the situation..
