    Because
    a) if it's fraud by an employee of the retailer/courier, they are hardly likely to give away an iPad
    b) if it's a mistake by the retailer, they will usually be much faster to resolve it where they are losing out financially

    And there have been posts on here from people who have received more expensive goods - there's one today.

    Happened to me when I ordered socks.  And they'd sold out afterwards:
