Moral Dilemma
 
I am a huge fan of Samurai Jack. Recently I purchased an official binder for the trading card set that comes with a number zero card and an uncut sheet of chase cards. I received the product two days later in perfect condition. The problem is that when I came home the next day I found another package containing the same thing. He accidentally sent it to me twice. I've been waiting for an email from the guy but I don't think that he realized that he did this. Does anyone think that I should send it back?

Take what you can, give nothing back. >:D

Seriously, god and satan don't exist, karma is bullshit, and nobody is gunna prosecute you for what they don't know about. You might as well keep them.

There are more important things to life than fretting over something so insignificant.

Give it back to him, he's losing money if you don't. Maybe hell and heaven don't exist but it's still wrong.

You better give it back or you're gonna burn in hell for all eternity! Do you want that?! You better beg for God's forgiveness for even contemplating it!

I believe that this is the afterlife and I'm already in my own personal hell so I'm not real worried about that. :)

What have you to gain from keeping it? I would give it back. You don't need two sets, you greedy man.

Besides, material posessions are meaningless. Jack would know this.

If you were me, I give it back.

OANST 03-14-2005 03:30 PM

Well, I could sell it to the local comic shop. I'm not that greedy of a man my little raisin but I certainly don't intend on paying shipping to return it.

Agent-Sarah 03-14-2005 03:33 PM

That would be a good idea.

Email the dude ask him what he wants you to do with it, If he wants it back ask him to pay shipping.

SeaRex 03-14-2005 06:12 PM

Or you could just sent it back to him.

I don't know, call me old fashioned, but that just seems like... you know... the right thing to do. We all make mistakes. Even if he doesn't realize what he did, you should at least alert him to the fact that he did, indeed, send you an extra product.

Geeze, people. All religious beliefs aside, I would like to think that humanity still has some semblance of moral structure left. :p

EDIT: Then again, if you are without religion, and feel absolutely no conviction in keeping it, then do so. I personally would send it back, but I guess it all comes down to what YOU think.

I had a similar thing happen with a set of FF:TSW trading cards that I ordered through eBay once. The seller had shipped the item, but several weeks later it hadn't arrived. So I contacted the seller and let them know and they sent me another set for no cost. That set arrived a week later. However, the week after that, the original set finally arrived [must have got lost in the post or somethng].

Anyways, I did the right thing and told the seller. And the seller said because of my honesty I can keep the second set.

OANST 03-15-2005 08:33 AM

Yeah. I'll probably send it back. I was leaning towards keeping it but the things that Dino was saying about no god and no karma struck me as so self serving that I changed my mind.

sligster 03-15-2005 03:31 PM

Send it back. It'll make ya feel a helluva lot better than if you keep it.


....... I know, I let my conciounse(sp?) get to me :p

Nepharski 03-16-2005 05:44 PM

Return the cards...you don't need two of the same thing, and it is the right thing to do.

Majic 03-16-2005 07:11 PM

Sending it back will give a sense of closure to the situation. Then again, that may not matter to you, but I'm a hell of a completionist.

Completionist, nice word, i like that. ;)

Majic 03-16-2005 07:29 PM

Shhh.

It's a real word, don't you worry. Just a little known word. Stop being a slave of that commie Webster, and form your own opinions. The media has gotten to you; fight the power. Fight the po po. Black Panter for life, dawg.
