Most of the metre a shipping error is a nuisance in the bottom for you . perchance you get the wrong thing , maybe you do n’t get anything . Sometimes though , it can be a vast blessing , like whenBest Buy accidentally sends you five iPads instead of oneand then says “ You know what ? Keep ’em . ”
That ’s what happened to Alexa and her boyfriend ’s female parent , both staggeringly honorable people . Upon recieving the box of five iPads instead of the one intended for Alexa ’s boyfriend , Alexawrote to The Consumerist for advice . She ’d try out to contact Best Buy to no service , even though Best Buy had n’t seemed to acknowledge the mistake or ask her about it , and even though she eff full well that upon being delivered , the iPads were lawfully hers .
When The Consumerist reached out to Best Buy — without providing any telltale details — they get this response :

Good afternoon , Alexa –
Laura , from the Consumerist , contacted us here at Best Buy on your behalf . First and firstly , I wanted to countenance you know how much we treasure your honesty . That is so rare in this twenty-four hour period and age and I truly give thanks you !
We , here at Best Buy , notice that we obviously made a misapprehension , but in the spirit of the holidays , we encourage you to keep the additional iPads and give them to masses in pauperization – friends , family , a local school or charity .

I have not shared this firmness of purpose with Laura , as you are the client , but it is up to you if require to let her screw the outcome of your discourse .
Thank you so very much for come forward and I hope your boyfriend enjoys his new iPad . Merry Christmas !
Or in myopic : “ Oh gosh darn it . Merry Christmas I suppose ! ”

What ’s more is that this ( the misapprehension anyway ) is n’t even a one clip occurance ; someone elsegot a grease one’s palms - one - get - five deal as well . It kind of makes you want to order an iPad from Best Buy , but you may depend they ’ll be keep a closer eye now , and the less vacation cheer - packed reality of this is that someone very well may have gotten a nice pre - Chrismas sack . But man , talk about a sweet deal . [ The ConsumeristviaCNET ]
