My Fedex story is one where the seller insisted on my signature when the package was delivered and it was cards. Fedex notified me that the package would be delivered during the morning hours. In our gated community theft is not a problem, but the seller insisted. The value of the parcel was $400, not 40K.

I waited at home for the morning delivery that did not happen. I continued to wait, pen in hand, but at 4PM there was a loud thud at the front door (that sounded like a break in attempt). I went the front door and my package was on the ground having been pitched by the driver at my door. The truck was pulling away when I looked up.

The seller packaged the cards well and they survived the bombing of my front door. Fortunately the front door survived as well. I never saw a signature of the driver and I suspect his office didn't either. With all the tales mentioned in this thread, my own position about signature verification on delivery seems vindicated.

Waiting 8 hours for a bomb to explode at the front door does not seem warranted either.

The nearest pick up location offered by Fedex is 20 miles away (40 miles for the round trip)

Hopefully things will work out more favorably for the OP as well.
