I had a similar incident with either UPS or Fedex. I can't remember which, but I was actually on the other side of this situation.

We had received a package for another business within our packages. I guess it was just mis-sorted as the business was similar and not too far away. I contacted said business using the number/contact info on the box and got the 3rd degree. I had to explain several times it was delivered to us by mistake. After some back and forth about how they were going to get it, it turned into "you come get it within the week or it gets returned to sender". One of the managers got it the next day and apologized for his worker's attitude. We no longer attempt to do this anymore as the hassle isn't worth trying to be nice.

Sounds like Weird Al trying to drop off the package in UHF.
 
It was ridiculous.

The item was being shipped from the same company so it had their contact info like ours do. When I called them up he had no idea how I got his number or knew his name. I kept telling them "Dude, it's on the box. I have your package in front of me. It was mis-delievered". It took a good 30 minutes and ended up with "Well, I'll let my manager know and he'll decide what to do" and me going "You've got a week or it goes back to sender". Yea, the item was worth over 1k so I got an apology call pretty quickly from the manager before he came in the next day to apologize in person.

Wow, good thing your brother was persistent! I can't believe the old guy wouldn't read the label.

Yes, that's the exact sign that I bought!

Edit: I could drive to the business, but FedEx didn’t give me the name. Should I call to try and get it?

From Craig maybe? or his buddy. I would be much happier knowing you got the mate instead of there be more variants like this one. The majority were just vinyl stick ons.
 

I got it from a guy in NH, he had a ton of variants.

The packages was picked up and delivered to the correct address today. I was able to pick it up at the FedEx store.
 
Right on. Plans for it? I think have a pretty easy way to make a light box for mine. May do it this weekend.

Our place likely gets that many packages a day, and if they got one misrouted like that it would likely be back on the truck the next day. ]]>
