You can't rely on people's honesty anymore can you...
This is just so sad the world has come to this stage...
I'll speak with the seller tomorrow, see what happens

The trouble is, the people at no.18 might be expressing exactly the same sentiment. How do they know you are completely honest and not someone who's involved in credit card fraud getting things delivered to their address with the otherwise plausible backstory that you are the previous resident?You can't rely on people's honesty anymore can you...

Rather than casting aspersions on other people's honesty, you ought to be looking at your own mistake as the root cause of this problem. Blaming others and questioning their integrity for what was your own carelessness is unfair.0 -
Don't get me wrong. First thing I was saying is that it is my mistake since I haven't updated my address and I was expressing my mistake at most points. On the other hand if they were honest they would have refused the delivery and not accept it no ? If they suspected it was a fraud they would have refused it in the first place instead of accepting. And since they are renting the house through the same agency as me then they could easily prove/disprove everything

Can you prove they accepted the delivery? I don't think you can claim they are dishonest when you are unsure as to exactly what happened.Don't get me wrong.

Well, the fact there was another delivery by mistake (cheap one so don't care) and they didn't let me know anything about it proves it...0

No, it doesn't. If that's the extent of your "proof", I wouldn't head to court just yet.Well, the fact there was another delivery by mistake (cheap one so don't care) and they didn't let me know anything about it proves it...
By your own criterion of what constitutes dishonesty, I can prove you are up to something because you've made the same delivery "mistake" twice. It's perfectly plausible that you sent the first, cheap item as cover/a foundation for your true, more expensive fraud.0
