They must have scanned it as it was going overboard otherwise how would they know which package it was?

Unless an entire container fell over. They would have a master BOL for every container. Just sayin'.

In the old days it simply "fell off the back of the truck".

My first opportunity to hear quality HiFi gear was at a buddies house where most of the system in question had "fallen off of the back of a truck." Great sounding system BTW.

speaking of “falling off the back of the truck” way back in the I think late 90’s I bought a used pass lab 150.5 on eBay from a guy in AZ. Showed up just fine a worked as new. Several years later had an issue a called pass lab about service. An older gentleman answered the phone an was quite helpful. He asked me the serial number and the issue I was having, after putting me on hold to check out the manufracture date he came back on line an asked me if I had heard the term “ falling off the back of the truck”. Of course I had an he informed me that my unit was one of the first runs of that model and had been stolen in New York City off a delivery truck. He asked about the provenance of the amp and I gave him my story how I came to acquire it.He found it quite humorous, but said send it in a they would fix it. I thanked him profusely an asked him his name. He replied Nelson Pass. What a nice guy and I still have that beast.

Many years ago, I had a patient by the name of Neil Armstrong who fell down the stairs and ended up in hospital.

I told the other doctor, "Neil Armstrong took a small step for a man, and a giant leap down the stairs".
