I had a similar experience, but with a firearm. I had purchased a rifle from a forum member, and due to Covid the parcel was set to arrive a few days later than expected (even after paying for express shipping...). I am set to be out of town for a week when the parcel is arriving, so I call the Post Office and ask them to hold the parcel until I am back (expecting that a signature and ID is required, I felt that this was redundant anyway). Wife calls me when I am away and says she has come home to the rifle sitting on the front step... Just had to laugh and shake my head. Not that they knew what was in the parcel, but just surprised that they cannot follow simple instructions.
