But it really all depends. They (FEDEX) have left a $1200 computer on my steps, labeled on the outside of the package what it is...and I've had to sign for $30 packages. So the absurdity of it goes both ways.
So you were wrong yet again, Ryl. Turns out it was a mistake by UPS. The package tracking shows it was delivered on Fri May 18. I spent the entire weekend wanting to hurt someone real bad for stealing stuff from off my porch. Then today, walking out the front door, there's the package waiting for me. No additional stickers denoting it was re-shipped or just improperly handled, no explanation where it's been for the past 3-4 days (I checked on Sat and they don't deliver on weekends anyway).

Now I'm more inclined to believe the first lost shipment back in Nov was also UPS's fault. That delivery was scheduled for the Wed right before the Thanksgiving holidays and it shows delivered on tracking but was nowhere to be found. I'm confident now thinking the driver dropped the package into a dumpster and started his holiday early.

Out of this mess, I get a free Android phone ($130), but any future claims to Amazon will be met with added skepticism on their part (not because they know of this, but because it will be the 3rd claim). So hopefully Amazon and UPS split the bill for this mess up, and I get a free phone for my troubles.
