@Cheese: that'd be a good idea if the packages didn't come from them in the first place. People in customer services aren't always bright, but I'm afraid that even they would suspect something.

Has it not occured to anyone that the right thing to do is sent one back?

We all end up paying higher prices because of stuff like this.

I thought about sending it back until I had to pay 7 euro VAT!

I'm not sure amazon will refund these...

Just you, VB. I take it you pay for your software, then.

So long as big companies employ geptards who send out more stuff than they should, they'll always haemorrhage money.

donate it to homeless guys as toilet paper, or sticky tape the pages to your head

sign up for a new account then from behind a proxy ask if they would pay

I understand what you say.

But stuff like this is allready included in the prices.

And do you really think they would lower their prices when everybody did

the right thing???

In how many cases people get ripped of by coorporations???

Overcharging hardly ever is made up by refunds....

I too think sending it back is the right thing, but if i would....????

Then, on the very same day, the two packages arrive!

So what would you do?

If you begin to feel bad about keeping it just think....'at least I haven't nicked a digital camcorder......that would be really bad
