I bought a sex toy from Amazon and the delivery guy has popped a nice note through my door

I am actually a cross between terrified and totally grossed out.
(Also mortified!)

I ordered a rather nice sex toy from Amazon and it was delivered today. It's something I got for DH and myself. The delivery guy did give me a look as he handed over the box but whatever.

I just went into the hall to find a card from Amazon with a post-it note saying that if I want something more I can call him, his number, and a smiley face.

WTAF? He opened my parcel? He was sizing me up? Tell me IANBU, please, I am on my own and FREAKING OUT

Grin was it singing merry christmas and doing a jig

TokyoKyoto · 19/10/2018 20:47

dh doesn't even know about it yet (he's away)
He is VERY good at complaining on the phone though so I may pass this off to him!

"If you want something more.." doesnt have to mean, "more than the batteries in your rabbit will give you". Maybe others are right and you were slightly flushed knowing what was in the box yourself and he picked up on that. Maybe he meant, "something more than 30 seconds at your front door" although its still creepy...

I have complained to Amazon recently after the delivery driver opened the envelope in order to post the box (Lego) through my letterbox. Got an apology and a refund.

Dontfeellikeaskeleton · 19/10/2018 20:53

Was it buzzing when he handed it over?

wibblywobblyfish · 19/10/2018 20:53

Was it buzzing away in the box by any chance?

FascinatingCarrot · 19/10/2018 20:53

I'm wondering if his brother is an emrgency plumber

Dontfeellikeaskeleton · 19/10/2018 20:53

PortiaCastis · 19/10/2018 20:56

TokyoKyoto · 19/10/2018 21:03

Yes it is my fantasy to be on my own on Friday night talking about a creepy post-it note online

(Quite looking fwd to dh getting home Grin)

I have bought “something” from amazon that came in the same kind of brown cardboard envelop books are often in. The ends could be pushed down you’d see the end of whatever was inside.
I would not be ordering any such item from amazon again!

SugarandVinegar · 19/10/2018 21:13

I think when they scan it their bleeper thing comes up with an order summary. My DH did a Christmas with Amazon

Well that's a game changer.

MrsFoxPlus4 · 19/10/2018 21:14

I bought a sex your from amazon and it came in a brown envelope and the postman handed me it like a sword. Could fully feel the shape

charleypops · 19/10/2018 21:18

You really should complain, you don't know the extent of his creepiness. If he thinks you'd be interested in him just because you ordered a sex toy and the fact he thinks this is acceptable means he's seriously warped or needs some educating at best. He might have more sinister stuff going on. He's got your address. He could start to stalk you if you're on his regular route. Nip it in the bud, you have nothing to be ashamed of.

SecretWitch · 19/10/2018 21:18

I never had a delivery man proposition me. Our pool guy made eyes at me once. Turns out he was very excited by our new robotic cleaning thing.

NoArmaniNoPunani · 19/10/2018 21:19

Ah crap. I've just ordered a massive bottle of lube off Amazon, it's coming tomorrow

SugarandVinegar · 19/10/2018 21:21

Phone him up and say your 6' 5" rugby playing DH wants to meet him
to shove a dildo up his arse. Grin

MyGastIsFlabbered · 19/10/2018 21:32

Was he hot though?

dontgobaconmyheart · 19/10/2018 21:36

Obviously he's highly inappropriate OP and I'd complain but if the package is untampered with it's not like he did look inside and you have no evidence he did. The 'look' is also completely open to interpretation. Maybe as has been suggested he can see what it is on but at the end of the day maybe he does it to everyone and is just a pig. Can you not just go on Amazon's live chat and log the issue with them rather than wait for your DH to come home and waste an evening on something that's unprofessional and inappropriate yes but hardly earth shattering. It would take a few minutes at best to do this or write an email. They are only going to apologise, look into it and probably offer you a months free prime or whatever anyway let's be realistic. A lot of these drivers are not directly affiliated to Amazon anyway. If you are legitimately in fear then you could contact the police (non emeegency obviously) but I'm not sure asking someone out while working is a crime.
No need for all the drama, a sex toy is hardly embarrassing, it's a normal part of a lot of people's sex lives and I'd assume a great number of people have them rather than them being at all taboo, you can buy vibrators and cock rings in the condom aisle at Tescos the. You've not actually done anything to be in the slightest bit embarrassed about. I'd just log a complaint, keep an eye out for any future issues and enjoy my evening with my DH if I were you.

Never been propositioned by amazon delivery men...they practically sprint away.

I wish I would be propositioned by the Hermes man though. He’s rather nice and once helped me construct a trampoline.

Raven88 · 19/10/2018 21:46

Does the address label have a company name on it. Sometimes you get that with Amazon?

OftenHangry · 19/10/2018 21:46

Is there a return to sender address?

Spiderdemon · 19/10/2018 21:46

Delivery men propositioning women is sadly common thing. There was a big fuss over it in spring this year, post #metoo etc.

Maybe he didn't have any idea what was inside but was a common or garden sleaze.
