Ridiculous. I honestly cannot believe some people’s behavior.

You can try calling the manufacturer for a replacement but that probably wouldn’t work because it wasn’t her fault that the package was misappropriated. The post office won’t help unless the package was insured, and their insurance company won’t help because the delivery was made.

Whoever opened the box and peeked did deliver it to you. If the device ‘worked’ for them they would have kept it, if not they would have destroyed the evidence of their crime.

If you’re feeling embarassed, don’t forget that everyone does it.

I would wash it well with bleach and enjoy it.

Yeah, that does seem pretty creepy. But I’ll bet it was an accident. The accidental recipient may have gotten a chuckle out of having it delivered to them (hence checking the pamphlet,) but you know how that goes. People love stories like that, so they had to make sure they had all the details for their friends.

Huh……. so that’s what happened to my blow up love sheep with dual ultra glide holes.

All kidding aside….. I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Can’t possibly be like the time me and my buddy did the same thing and found a water bong. It didn’t lead me down a bad path or anything. Crap…. nobody move, I just dropped a fat assed bud. Ok, hold on. I got it.

I’m afraid I cant really help, but a week ago or so someone on a forum i post on made photos of a box he got delivered.

He had ordered computer parts but what he got was a “CB 6000 chastity device”. As it turns out, the guy who ordered that thing had the same name but lived in a different city, so the labels got mixed up. Must have been kinda embarassing for him, especially since it said that it was the small model.

Hope your case turns out to be less freaky :)

Just found this site.

Actually, the removal of the shipping label could have a much more straightforward reason – they might’ve wanted one for themselves (or were thinking about it). The shipping label would include the manufacturer, how to order things from the manufacturer, etc. If it included an invoice, they’d even know the price.

Note: I’m certainly not condoning this behavior. As a territorial agoraphobe with obsessive-compulsive disorder, it feels like ants crawling under my skin thinking about it.

Just last week, I had something delivered by UPS to my neighbors house. Since he knew we weren’t home, he took it inside and kept it until we were. Given our schedules, that was a few days later.

Slightly different situation, but he did mentioned that something had caught his eye before he automatically opened it. If he hadn’t, my package would have been opened. I was just thankful that it was something “vanilla”.

Regardless of what happened, it is annoying that it happened. It caused you a lot of grief trying to figure out what happened, track it all down, etc. Toss in the wacky coincidence with the Tweet, and I can see why you are annoyed by the whole thing. I would be too.

~ You guys know each other though and he wanted to give it to you personally. My weirdo dropped it on our porch in the dead of night.

Yes the post office, a federal institution, has mis-delivered mail to me. I got a $250 Kona coffee order that was for a neighbor way down the street. I thought it was a gift from an uncle that is also into it.
Tampering only covers your mailbox. Hell I have had signature requests ignored too. Relax and let the vibrations take you away.

I would not “freak out” about it, but I would return for a replacement to sender.

You should get a new one, not a “previously ridden” model. A simple matter of hygiene.

I would also check with the apartment manager and report to the mail service. Stealing or tampering with mail, mailboxes or mail carriers is a serious Federal offense.

See, what doesn’t add up to me is that even if it was opened accidentally. why did they dig the pamphlet out? If I opened a package and noticed it was something I hadn’t ordered I wouldn’t have opened the package but checked the label (seeing it wasn’t for me) and returned it with an apology.

~ Right. It was purely to figure out what it was.
