How about if you go to pick it up and say something like
" well I'm not expecting anything, maybe my wife bought me a gift or something???"
If a postal worker hears you say that and they try and bust you, you can say I had no clue what it even was!!!
Then again, it's better to be safe then sorry bro....
Just think 1,000 dollars of gear can end up costing you alot more then that...... Even some time. Maybe it's better of to just take a loss and know your still safe..
Good luck and keep us posted!!
