    In fairness to the OP and being totally technologically incompetent (hence the name which I was lovingly christened by my OH) if I had received this i would in all innocence have assumed they came together

    If it's a small local shop you bought it in, call them about it.

    If it's currys, pcworld etc then I'd let them come to me about it :)

    Hoep you enjoy it

    Technically if its a separate item.. and you didn't pay for it no you cant keep it.

    I guessing the majority of people would keep it and see if the company contacts them or bills. If they don't for a month or two then most would keep it.

    All comes down to how you feel about it really, but yes you technically should call them up and find out.

    All depends on what kind of person you are really.


    Personally id see how it goes for a month or so...wouldn't even unbox it or open it at all, so if you did need to return it i would expect most places just to say thanks. (well you might open it to see what it is..but put it all back safely and tidy like you got it)

    Unboxing and using it basically means you wont return it in my opinion and if they catch up with you expect to pay for it...its only fair imho.

    The company intentionally delivered the goods to you.

    They had your name and address on the box.

    I don't see that there is any issue here.

    They have given you the goods, which is quite within their rights to do.
