What should my friend do?

My friend recently bought a pretty sick Large Oakley jacket and it was taking the online store forever to send.  Finally after emailing and calling they sent it. When he opened the package he noticed they sent him 2 (One that he bought and one that they accidentally sent him).

What should he do?

Send it back and maybe get like a discount on his next purchase (that he will probably never use).

or

Sell it and make like $100 and have Karma on his ass.

Maybe they sent it to him as a supplement for their bad service.

THIS IS NOT SKI GABBER!


But he should keep it! What kind of a question is that? If he won't use it, then he should hook somebody up by selling it really cheap.

I would have him email them about it. If they want it back, he should take super long to send it, just like they did.

i would probably keep it myself, but if you were honest and told them that they sent you something extra they will most likely just tell you to keep it for being honest. Also they might give you a discount or something off your next purchase.

Might as well email them. It's not like they're going to demand that you send it back. Plus he'll feel better about it

I believe it is his legal right to keep it...if a company sends something to you without you buying it, then I am fairly sure you can keep it.

keep it... they fucked up not your fault. I bought hell bents online the year they totally redid them not just the graphics (last year) and paid for the previous years model but they sent me the new ones. I got them mounted up quick so they couldn't ask for them back.

That's crazy, the exact same thing happened to a friend of mine. Oakley needs to get it together.

i promise im not trying to be preachy here, in a practical sense i agree with you guys saying he should keep it (and hell, it's hard to worry too much about oakley..)

but i like to keep my conscience clear and always try to force myself to do the right thing, cause if i don't, what right do i have to complain when other people don't?

hell, i bet if he told them what happened, there's a solid chance they'd say oh well keep it

just my 2 cents

Oakley's distribution center based on weight. Each package is weighed for the exact content. They will do a bin count eventually and notice the discrepancy. Next all they have to do is go back on the orders for that coat and check weights leaving. If there is one package that is twice the weight of what it should be, they have their answer right there. It is illegal for them to charge your MOM's card without consent. They will contact you and give you two options. 1.Sent the coat back on their dime or 2. pay for the coat. Oakley didn't get as big as they are by giving away $300 coats. I'm not saying keep the coat or sell it or whatever. I don't care. but the facts remain. Good luck with your choice.

Keep it, I would send it back if it's a small company like Jiberish... But since it's Oakley you might as well sell it, Oakley's a huge brand and won't miss the jacket that cost $20 to make

Might as well keep it. I have a friend who gets everything super late and gets a ton of free stuff with it, that could be the case for your friend.
