Have you checked the bank statement to see that you weren't charged for it?
If you weren't charged just stick it on ebay!

Or I don't know... do the right thing and return it? :huh:

+1. im all for "your loss is someone elses gain" and "finders keepers" ect.
but £1700 is a lot of money to be taking from a company.
also im guessing that one of youse had to sign for it? if so theres more than likely a bar code or some code to identify what was in that box and a chance that when they realise there mistake they will ring you up and ask for it back and when youve sold it you may have to cough up £1700 for the products.

I'm all for making extra cash but plenty of businesses out there are going under
Every company could use all the help available honesty being the best thing

I'd return it too.

And the above. The person who now has shampoo rather than £1700 worth of beauty stuff is going to be ringing around like crazy and the company will see that the box was addressed to you, and they'll be asking for it back. Who knows they might give you some freebies for your troubles :smiley:

Yeh mate you will get found out anyways as the tracking code once the other person complains! do the right thing phone up and get it sorted...

I got an £80 bike component sent to me once, from chain reaction cycles, that I didnt order (had many previous dealings though). I phoned them up to see about them paying for its return, the lass on the phone was very grateful, as they had no record of it being wrongly dispatched!
Their warehouse is in Nothern Ireland :rolleyes: :lipsrsealed:

Nice going, those people who made mistakes could have got into some right trouble or even lost their job just for a little mistake that could happen to anyone. But oh well so long as you saved a few quid I'm sure that's fine :rolleyes:
