Huh? I order food items on line all the time and I never have to sign
for them... what'd you order, a $20 case of jarred mustard... no on
line company is worried about something like that. I order $200,
$300, $400 items and don't need to sign, the UPS drivers know exactly
where to leave deliveries too, right at my garage man-door because
there's a big overhang so it's out of the weather, Fed-Ex etal. leave
packages here all the time too, no sig needed... maybe you live in a
high crime area where deliveries are stolen. Last time I had to sign
was for a $1,600 leather chair and matching hassock, was about ten
years ago. I recently ordered a $300 dehumidifier from Amazon for my
basement, no sig. The best part was the nice carton, cats love it so
I kept it, Jilly sleeps in it every morning after breakfast... she
drags all her toys in there, even her new stuffed rat. Do ferrets
play with toys? Cats don't need expensive toys, they are happier with
a corrogated carton and a few raggedy towels, stuff an old sock with a
spoonful of catnip and they don't need pricey toys.
