I am almost certain that it is a federal offense to open a package sent thru the USPS if you are not the addressee even if you are a resident at the address specified. I do not know the rules if it is delivered via FedEx or UPS. Assuming that to be accurate I would think attempting to sell something not addressed to you would be an additional offense.

My assumption was that it was addressed to him but included in the package by mistake.
The seller has been discussed on the board at length previously.

Something like this would have had to have been signed for. If you signed for a package addressed to someone else and opened it and then sold the contents online you have committed a crime. Of course, the package could have been addressed to the seller since it was a shipping mistake.
