They don't check for ID if there's someone home to sign for the parcel. (And if it's regular unregistered parcel post they don't need a signature even.) I must say I'd be pretty peeved if I had to show ID in my own home to be able to receive my own mail.
How did you figure that what you reckon happened in fact happened?
I had something somewhat similar happen with a ~$150 Vistaprint order: AustPost left the parcel on the front porch in plain view of busy street and it got nicked (even though it would have been worthless to any thief). AustPost denied all responsibility but Vistaprint got a local printing business to redo the order urgently and had it delivered by express courier for no charge. Received it within a couple of days (a job that normally takes 7-10 days). I was very impressed with Vistaprint; not so much with AustPost and it was basically their fault.
