The answer is no. You could look up the tracking number on amazon if it was purchased with your account and then read the receipt but that's it.

At my work we get purchase orders attached to the outside of all our boxes that tell you what's in them but that's because we're an actual business and not a house.

tried when I first saw it on all the codes, didn't work :c

So did I, it didn't work for me either but that could be because I'm trying to scan off a computer screen and I've never had much luck with that. In any case, I figure it's probably just shipping information for the post office - they don't care what's in the package really.

If the box had a barcode on it from the manufacturer that would be different - stuff like furniture or bulk paper or whatever usually has barcodes on the boxes for use in the warehouse. This is just a standard amazon box though, probably with another Assassin's Creed ad on the side.

try out some smart phone apps that scan barcodes.

some of that stuff literally is locked to products.

Can we have sizes? Try feeling it up.

Shake the box.

If you hear a shattering noise then the box contains glass.

It is probably one of his presents and he's not allowed to open it. Guessing from the Amazon.com part.

This is extremely probable and OP is dumb for trying to spoil presents before Christmas.

This is probably the case, he found it/came in the mail before parents could intercept it.

It's good to see you finally got the box of dragon carrots i sent you.

Here's a size comparison with the package and a tissue box
I can read those details pretty well, you might want to censor that.

Maybe a very large book?

How about you give some actual measurements?

A box.

Inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box,....

I've had amazon ship a USB cable in a giant box with some of those plastic air bag things so I would take the box size with a grain of salt unless it also happens to be heavy and doesn't rattle.

Books usually come packaged in a different kind of box without tape.

This is true.
I can verify that this is not a book. I got a book from amazon to day and you actually remove a little flap on the southern end of the package and it reveals the contents.
