I think the difference is that Frye is a small retailer, not a behemoth. And Amazon has a significant partnership with Kohl's. They can afford to replace for good will, customer service reasons. With as much porch pirating as there is now, a small retailer couldn't afford to replace.


Then I wouldn’t shop there again.


Totally makes sense. Hold the company that had nothing to do with the package being stolen accountable. That will solve the theft issues in the neighborhood.

This makes no sense. If it was stolen from the seller's property, of course they are responsible. They delivered it to OP's property. It is now OP's responsibility to get the box off her porch.

As a buyer of a product, you ask for proof of delivery.

When they can’t provide a signature showing the package was signed for, you tell the shipper they need to 1. Send a new package. 2. Or issue a refund.

The shipper has a responsibility to deliver the merchandise to you. That includes making sure a signature is provided to confirm delivery receipt.

Just because the shippers leave stuff all the time with out ringing the bell and hand delivery with signature that doesn’t absolve them.

The shipper can file a claim with the shipper for failure to deliver and provide proof of delivery. They have insurance on their shipment. And if they didn’t, that is their problem.

You don’t need to worry about the police report, etc. if they can’t provide signed proof of delivery then it was never delivered.



I disagree. Unless in the shipping agreement with the company the necessity of a signature was expressly stated, it should be assume that the package will be delivered sans signature.


Yes. You have to note signature required. And if it isn't an option, then call/text to see what you need to do to get signature required.

I don’t believe they re responsible, but a lot of retailers will send a replacement if you ask.

Why do you have a camera if you don't look at it?


The camera did notify her. She just didn't want to check the notification.

This is clearly your fault. You need to pay for a box and have it shipped there.
Having an always locked business and expecting packages is foolish.

Oh please! This can happen in any urban neighborhood. And urban doesn’t equal criminal. I live in brownstone Brooklyn and this happens all the time.


That's terrible to live in a neighborhood where theft happens "all the time."

My mom did get Amazon to replace stolen products recently. Not sure how irate she had to be. I was surprised. They were just a few books do not much $$. Maybe they just wanted to make her happy.

None. Take it up with your homeowners insurance or credit card.
