My UPS guy, who is snowflake white and redneck as he can be, has no issue with my purchases from Ammoman.com, even though they weigh a ton and he has to walk them up to my porch. I've told him many times how much I appreciate him.
However, it got weird last fall when a distant family member sent me a package in a reused 'female novelty toy' shipping crate box. I thought that type of packaging would be more discrete, but no.
He no longer looks me in the eyes, and I haven't found a smooth way to bring it up.
That means your family member ordered the novelty item first. You know that right?
