Rolling the dice and levaraging social capital

General
Since a few are doing it and I'm short on funds again. I may as well list the things on my amazon wish list for the next 6 months. Not much of a gamer or toy person but I like kitchen and domestic things right now. That and some candy of course. Ill see what happens come the spring as to wither I buy some more art or padding, but that's a far ways away.
I'm using amazon.ca because it allows you to to ship to a nearby post office (amazon pickup point is like 5 minutes away in said Post Office) and I don't have to deal with duties or taxes. Plus exchange from USD to CAD makes it cheaper for Americans.
I also don't like having it delivered to my front door. It'll only to be stolen since my apartment is full of porch thieves. They even take my delivery slips and spy on me on delivery day (I've had 2 things stolen from my front door already--over the past year).

If someone does send me something please note or contact me so i can put the delivery QR code on my phone and show it to the post office clerk when i go to get it.

My waist size is 48 but my hips may be a 50 so L4s fit me I guess. I know amazon stocks them so i can always put it on my wish-list if you want.
Im not really familiar with any of the other brands that are available up here on amazon though...
I guess we'll talk over im ^^
as for the pourch priates they there game is to take your pakages and sell them on E BAY or some other site to make a quick buck this makes me wish there was a RF ID tracking chip that could be tracked by the police using cell signal towers
I cant tell if their scalping it for re-sale (we have alot of transients coming in destroying our mailboxes and roaming the insides of the building for drug money as well as shooting up) or the neighbors just don't like me. If their scalping it for re-sale on ebay than that is a pretty sophisticated operation for someone who is strung out on drugs and wandering the building. That points to even bigger corruption or I have a personal security breach. I have to keep fighting the urge to think someone is spying on my communications and seems to know EXACTLY when the delivery truck arrives and EXACTLY what is in the package for it to be gone within 30 minutes--and that they are being stolen locally in the building. Especially when there are no cameras in front of my landing and the building is open to the public.
I live in an apartment so they drop things off right at my front door in the hallway. One of my packages was taken no less than a half hour after the delivery was made. Its hearsay right now, but my package of socks from last month was stolen and the neighbor were snickering through their door when I got pissed off and yelled about it. They apparently indicated that they had the socks and kept commenting about it through their door for weeks afterwards. I filed a police report about it, of course, but nothing is gonna happen now. Directly addressing it leads to denial and Ill just get accused of harassment.
The other item from early in the year... Well it was a children's toy tablet that looked like a real one. (Hot toy too that was sold out worldwide) that would have been a surprise when they opened the box. I was able to source a new one from the other side of the world tho but yeah.
