I've been exposed to some Twilight Zone type of theft...

I feel very uneasy and weird right now. 

Around Christmas I bought clothes (jackets) from the UK. I think it cost around 300 dollars or whatever. Not Benaroya-money but still money. I was out of town from Christmas and over New Years, until like the 7th of January. 

I had not received my jackets or any notice from the postoffice about picking them up or something, when I got home. So I checked and found a tracking number in the invoice from the clothing store. The tracking number said that I had received the clothes at 12:02 CET on the 2nd of January. Five days before I went back home. 

My first thought was that the postal service had dropped the package outside my door, and without me picking it up after a while someone snatched it "american porch pirate"-style. But, the post office said that no, they delivered it to my door to be signed and ID shown to retrieve the package. Which they said I must have shown. And I must then have gotten a knock on my door, and opened it...

But I wasn't home. I was out of town.

Now, I have to file a complain to the clothing store company, saying that the post office says that it was received by me (signature and ID shown at the door) but I was not even close to being in town on that date. Also file a police report.

Who has stolen my package? And how? A neighbor could have, but have they been stalking the stairwells with a Spiritual_Chaos fake-ID waiting for the chance of the Postoffice to come by with a package? Doesn't make sense. Or did the postoffice-dude fake it somehow and steal the package? Or have I in some Jekyll and Mr Hyde way gone home on the 2nd.... 

I guess this will end with me loosing my Jacket and the money. But I wanna know how the fuck this happened. 

This makes me uneasy as hell.

    Probably a postman who just dropped them when you weren't home, forged the paperwork/signature so he didn't have to return them to the office then Rod Serling snatched the package while it sat outside your place.

    I aw a similar story elsewhere where that is what happened.  If I recall correctly, this postal worked did this a few times and was caught. 

    Hopefully, the same will happen in this case.  S_C, I would keep pursuing it.  Good luck!

    Ask to see the signature if possible.

    Did I ever tell you guys about the time I scored this sweet jacket over Xmas? I don't even remember ordering it! The delivery person just handed it over while I scribbled a random sig down and it was all mine from there. I bet it cost like 300 dollars or something, really fancy probably from the UK.

    That information can only be given to the sender. So hopefully the clothing company helps out. I would like to bring that for the police report.

    I assume you used a credit card to purchase the jacket??? Call the credit card company and have the charge placed on hold advising you never received the shipment.  Fight it, fight it, fight it.  I hate shit like this.  
    Don't come closer or I'll have to go

    I have emailed the webstore. They will look into it. So hopefully they will come back with info about who received it, and what signature... So I can bring as much info as possible to the police. And what have gone wrong will come to light.

    I once had this.  I saw a signature that was not mine on the website. I went to number 34 of the  next street (im no.34)and found they had signed and taken it in. Their excuse was "oh we order  lots and just assumed it was ours"  bullshit. So i was lucky to get my new shoes  back.

    The clothingstore gave my money back, and said that on their end it doesn't say anything about it being delivered or signed for - but that it was still in transit (And perheps lost).
