  • Wow, lucky!!

    I'd say keep it for 6 months without doing anything to it, and then after that sell it/use it/give it to a friend.

    It's the supplier's error, not yours, and if they don't care enough to notice or to process the initial order properly, it's hardly your fault.

    I vaguely recall something termed "theft by finding" in that if there is no attempt to find the rightful owner, you could be guily of such a crime, worth checking out.
  • keep it!
    * i really shouldnt say it considering i am studying law but hey*
    its happened to soooo many people,the company will probably not even know they have done it!!! my next door neighbough had 2 computers delivered on DIFFERENT days so she signed twice n still they never contacted her!

    but if you are worried id say wait a few months and then sell it

    or do the ''right'' thing and send it back :)
