Does Kobo ship with "Signature Required"?

Just saw on the tracking page for my Clara that it says "Signature Required". I've not been anywhere near another person other than my wife for 58 days and 13 hours (yeah, I started tracking with an app when I first went into full isolation after being exposed to somebody at work who got very sick after visiting multiple pulmonologists to gather product requirements, I then got very sick myself and don't know if I had CV or something else), and now this? :-/

I guess I'll have to mask up and meet the driver outside and ask her/him to put the signature board on the hood of the car and step back while I sign.

It's a bit weird that a tiny corner shop counter is now like a high security bank crossed with an Operating Theatre Scrub Room!

I have a UPS account, so I was able to "sign" online and leave instructions to leave it at the front door, with me taking responsibility for the package. Since I work at home in an office with a window facing the front yard I always get my packages within minutes of them arriving anyhow.

That's happening in the US also.

Good to know the OP was able to get his situation taken care of.

The last parcel I had delivered was "Signature Required" (6 x 2TB Samsung 860 Pro SSDs). The delivery person placed it on my porch, rang the doorbell and backed up about 4 meters. When I opened the door, he asked are you?, I said yes and he jotted something on his handheld and left.

I'm assuming if I hadn't come to the door, he would have retrieved the package and not have left it on the porch.

Every two weeks I pick up a package from Purolator in Canada that contains gift-cards ordered by our church congregation. There might be thousands of dollars of cards. Now it's no signature needed by Purolator (and quite often no ID either).
