If a delivery company had delivered them, then there should have been a bar-coded address label on the packaging along with a track and trace number. Even the cheap and cheerful companies use tracking. The delivery company name would usually be printed on the label too. In past experience, most companies require a POD unless the customer has specified that they can leave in a safe location. The back garden would be classed as a safe location in most circumstances. I have seen all kinds of things shoved through a door to say where a parcel has been left when a driver has run out of calling cards. Never seen an oily ebay invoice though. Just re-advertise them if you don't want to get them sprayed. If you sell them for £1 each and charge £20 postage (which seems cheap for 2 bumpers) you'll have made a profit.

I don't know of one delivery company that will package the item for you unless you pay them for the service such as the partnership Sony and PC World have with DPD. |
Neah, no address or anything on the bumpers, they are rapped together in what seems like bin bags, so I assume no courier was used, I had no contact with any specifying that they could be left.
