[QUOTE="Roerbakmix, post: 4040238, member: 100731"]I had a similar experience ... yesterday! In the Netherlands, there is an option for insured mailing: you pay a bit extra, and are required to 1) ID yourself upon delivery, and 2) sign before you receive the package. So yesterday, the postman delivered a package. I expected an insured package, but he assured me: it's a normal package (so no ID or signing required). And very hurriedly left. I did not expect a normal package, so I shrugged, did not open it, and waited for my insured package. Which did not come. Then, I checked the online tracking system: (In Dutch) [ATTACH=full]1060653[/ATTACH] Lo and behold: the package was already delivered! To my astonishment, there even was a signature: [ATTACH=full]1060651[/ATTACH] ... which is not mine (not even close). I did receive both coins though (in fact, I've posted[URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/lothair-carolingian-king-of-west-francia-my-first-carolingian-coin-this-time-for-real.354253/'] a thread about one already[/URL]). Still, I filed a complaint.[/QUOTE]
