But in opening the box and finding a tent and microspikes, wouldn't that
have made YOU think TWICE that the contents were 'meant' to be 'shared'?!?

I can see making the 'mistake' of opening the box IF it was not addressed
and mailed to someone else, but simply a 'drop-off' with only a name on it -
but in seeing the contents, common sense 'should' have taken over that
something was 'amiss' and an inquiry should have been made before any thought
of taking the items...  or is common sense totally nonexistent nowadays?

Happy trails (in the future for those 'missing' gear)!!!
