Don't you love when online retailers screw it up?
I know a guy who ordered a cheap red laser pointer for use during slideshows/meeting/whatever and when it came in the mail it just happened to be a $400 green laser that could blind someone 2miles away and slice through black garbage bags. Had to buy a different laser for the slideshows though... you couldn't even look at the beam of this thing. :D


Edit: You should gift that thing. Hook someone.

I'm in the Karma camp here...I would either contact them to let them know OR gift that sucker to someone else. The good you put out will come back and being dishonest about will come back too.

Apologies for sounding like your father. :rolleyes:
I prefer to ask for forgiveness rather than permission.

Funny how these days nobody wants to do the right thing. People are greedy.

Be a man dude and notify the seller.

On the other hand when people like you brag about this stuff you immediately get added to my "people to not deal with" list. :)

I would offer it back bro. Never know they might appreciate the honesty and just tell you to keep it! (i doubt it) but its worth a shot! And at the end of the day you know you didn't rip anyone off!
It probably felt sweet opening it up and seeing two. But when a dealer makes a mistake like that they have to make up for it somewhere, so they will have to increase the retail price for everyone...
Just a thought :)
