    Anyone have any advice for canceling the order, is it possible at all?
Might your landlord allow you to post a sheet a paper to your front door stating that you refuse delivery? This is what I did to refuse delivery of a 16GB Nexus 7 (I found a 32GB Nexus 7 for a little over $200), and it worked. I didn't need to interact with a UPS driver.

That being said, the 16GB Nexus 7 I ordered was delivered to Google on Nov 29 and I still haven't received a refund or been contacted by Google regarding my order.

Thank you, this is what I am going to do, although in my case, the situation is a bit more complex.

The apartment complex I live in receives packages from UPS en masse, and then classifies it according to apartment numbers, so there is a possibility that they might not detect my package before accepting it, but I will ask them to keep an eye on it.
