What would you HONESTLY do in this situation?

[Friends1996]

Say you ordered a few items from a big online shop (clothing), then successfully cancelled the order, and was refunded.

A few days later, you ordered a single item of clothing from the same place. Today that item was delivered, however they had also sent the items you had cancelled and was refunded for (probably around £120 worth of stuff).

Would you contact them about it or would you keep quiet, see if they emailed you about it and if you didn’t hear anything say 3-4 weeks down the line, just keep the items as normal? This is a place you regularly order from, spending between £300-400 a month.

What would you HONESTLY do?

It’s not very ethical if you buy enough for more than one person though is it, unless you are passing it on to family and friends every couple of months.

This doesn’t read entirely pleasantly.

No, it doesn't does it ? It's a shame there are so many people with dodgy morals.

It's not meant to read pleasantly. It's a fact that there are significant numbers of posters who lie a lot and seem to have no worries about taking things that don't belong to them.

Well, I wouldn’t do it myself but I’m not sure I appreciate those posts basically slagging off everyone on the site and accusing them of all sorts.

It is one thing to have strong morals but you don’t get to tell other people what theirs should be.

Similar happened to DM but it was a washing machine. Was honest and contacted Curry’s twice but they said the transaction wasn’t recorded and because it was not in the system they couldn’t take it back so she got it free.

If I was happy to pay for them (ie. if they 'realised' and charge me) then I'd do nothing and see what happens. If I definitely didn't want to pay for them I'd send them back.

yup I buy at Seasalt. I know my size and never send anything back.

And then think it's hilarious to mock posters who would return the goods.

The company probably make the clothes for a pittance and sell it to you for a fortune. Unless it was a small independent business I wouldn’t say anything.

Like the way scorn and derision was poured upon posters as a whole, you mean?

I would be honest. I don’t believe Karma gets bad people- I believe that Karma waits around for good people to fuck up!

That’s not a big business, that’s an SME. Turnover also tells you nothing about profit or cash flow or financial strength of the company.

I'm not ashamed at all , but cheers 🤣

Scorn wasn't poured on posters "as a whole"- unless of course you're referring to the posts by Screwyoutwat,

calling other posters liars,pearl clutchers, idiots, jealous and other insults,

Special mention for tiddletiddleboomboom's "hilarious" effort

This happened to me. With an £800 Emma mattress. I kept it and gave it to a family member. Shoot me!

How weird!! This happened to us at the weekend there, at the Co Op, also a £10 and we handed it in. Maybe it's a co op test it's customers honesty 😂

Not rtft but I'd keep them..... you wanted honesty......

This is not true, it is not why businesses are going under at all!! I've always kept stuff if someone made a mistake, thought everyone did 🤷‍♀️ I've asked around in my office today everyone else said they "keep the stuff!" I am not convinced all the pearl clutches on this thread are really telling the truth to be honest.

It's like when you find money on the street... 🤷‍♀️

tell me you know nothing about business without telling me you know nothing about business….

?! What insult have I made against the angels?! 😇😇

Don't judge every one by your own low standards.

[I'm so sick of "pearl clutcher"-if you're going to be insulting try not being so lazy and lacking in imagination]

I’d keep them purely based on cost of living crisis and many of these companies do tax avoidance. Where is their moral compass when they try to get out of paying tax and treating employees like slaves?

Wow, 10% - they pulled out all the stops!

I'm tempted to ask where is your moral compass if you think it's ok to keep things simply because a) prices in general have gone up and b) some but by no means all companies treat their employees badly and/or use perfectly legal means to minimise their tax liabilities. How does that give you any entitlement to something that's not yours? By all means keep it if you want but don't pretend that's a moral stance.
