Default My dumbass mistake

Hey fellas,

I have a dilemma. I bought an item off eBay and paid in full through PayPal. What I didn't realize till it was too late is that it's being sent to my old address...
So I'm just curious, what can I do in this situation? I have a tracking number and as of this moment it's in the drivers possession iv talked to auspost and they said hopefully it doesn't get signed for and gets left at the office so I can get it..
Thoughts ??
Say the parcel gets signed by the owners of the house and I rock up and ask for it, and they say nothing was delivered even tho tracking it says it's been signed for, do I take it to the police and consider it stolen??
Help..

Go around to the old address and explain what has happened. Hope that they are decent people and help you out otherwise I'm guessing you're pretty much screwed.

So basically you're worried that if you go around to your old address they may have already opened your package and found the gimp suit and 15inch strap on dildo that you ordered and there might be a bit of an embarrassing moment?

And they open the door and are already wearing it.

Who would want someone else's Viagra and penis pump anyway? Ask nicely and they will hand it over.

Exactly what I did, left a note in the letter box with my phone number, an explanation and the name it would be addressed to and had it within a few days, I'd changed my PayPal address but forgot to change my eBay addy till it was too late for the supplier to change.
