On the 'package', the instructions given to the seller
...If I’m not present during the delivery, please give the instruction to let the game outside, but BEHIND my house, like this ->
...I’ve added 5€ in the price, so please put a max of bubble wrap/plastic around the game and especially on top, in order to protect it if it rain or something ;-)
