    Controlled Delivery?

    Check this out. I have a PO Box where I receive mail because when I moved into my neighborhood home delivery wasn't available. Now we have a cluster mailbox, but I didn't sign up for one. So I still get mail at my PO Box. Today a guy who says he's an employee of the subcontractor who delivers mail to the cluster boxes in my neighborhood comes to my front door to deliver a package and asks me to sign. This package should've been sent registered mail to my PO Box, so unless the shipper screwed up and addressed it to my physical address, the delivery was suspicious. I didn't get a chance to see which address the package was sent to. I just told him I usually receive mail at the Post Office and wasn't going to sign. He left. So now I see several possible outcomes. They could put a package notice slip in my mailbox and then I have to decide whether to sign. They could put the package in a parcel locker and leave the key in my box and I have to decide whether to pick it up. Or they could return it to the sender if I don't pick it up before their deadline. I've tried emailing the shipper but no reply yet since he's in a different time zone. I'm not sure what to do next.

    Fatherof6... I actually tend to side on how you are putting it. I've only had one - my first - order seized, and it was fairly large for personal use (6 separate boxes), but I'm not looking real deep into the whole seizure thing. Yes, I am safe for the most part, but I agree with your logic about big fish/small fish. I think we are getting a bit worked up these days. That being said, yes, better safe than sorry and I dont want to downplay the dangers. And one last thing... PLEASE tell me you were typing while driving on a hand held or something!! lol

    Give him a break... he's on a hand held.

    Got your back Father!

    Ya, I'd be interested in the rest of that story. I'm sure Internal Affairs was involved at some level. Like he said, they would be more apt to make an example of their own, save face on the force after one of their own was outed.

    epno, you need to clarify something... when u ordered your books or whatever, did u use your PO BOX or HOME ADDRESS for shipping??

    if u used the PO BOX then how the hell would the company know your HOME address??

    that would be a little scary..

    Happy Ending...

    I did give the shipper two choices. PO Box for mail only or physical address for any other carrier. The shipper screwed up and used the physical address for mail. It turned out the neighborhood cluster mailbox delivery guy was just going the extra mile. It was freaky none the less because I've never had the post office try to deliver anything to my home before. It arrived at my box the next day.

    Ya... I think he got everyone's feathers ruffled a bit. When I had my first order delivered I used my own address etc... since it was 6 boxes (yes 6) the mail gal came to my door since they would not fit into my mb. I happened to be home at the time so I was able to take delivery... never crossed my mind that anything was fishy. She had them all rubberbanded to gether and said "Mr xxxxx, you have 6 boxes today..." She had a little smirk on her face... and as I look back, it had to be becaus of all the green customs tape on them and she knew I had whatever was inside seized. They were light as a feather as she could carry all in one hand. I guess I'll keep you all posted if I get any visitors in black and sun glasses...

    Hmm you think over the counter bottles are a bad idea. I figured it was better than keeping the tabs in the original bottles.
