Here's my story:
1. I bought a power adapter for my digital camera off eBay.
2. The seller shipped it through UPS Canada (he's in Canada too) last week.
3. I knew I should be getting it this week, so I looked up the tracking number -- it says "status: delivered" and "location: rear door."
5. I went to my rear door and took a look -- nothing was there.
6. So I went outside to where my gate is (my backyard is fenced off) -- nothing was there.
7. I looked around and beside my garden hose, I see a package (my garden hose is about 6 feet away from the gate).
8. It turns out that my package has been delivered! But the UPS guy tossed it into my garden. I didn't get a notice or anything in my mailbox. The package was delivered yesterday, so it was actually sitting in my garden overnight. I knew right away that he tossed it in because my package was sitting in a puddle. He wouldn't have placed it there if he actually walked in and carefully placed it somewhere.
I don't know if this is an isolated incident, but that's definately not a great way to deliver packages. I wouldn't have mind that much if they left a notice of some sort. If I didn't check, I could've waited another week, while my package was sitting in my garden.
