Woman says Target has mistakenly sent her more than 100 packages in nearly a week

@catthegreat Why?

@catthegreat @Kyeh Yeah, why?

@catthegreat Also asking why you think that. Seemed pretty okay to me.

@werehatrack
Right but I don’t want glasses, give me something more useful.

@Star2236 @werehatrack More useful? Like trackers perhaps? While I don’t have 100 of them, I have at least 50 or 60 I could mistakenly send you postage due if you’d like. I won’t even do it one at a time.

@Star2236 @werehatrack In my case, glasses are very useful. (If they match my eyesight needs.)

@djslack I was impressed by her scrupulous refusal to just pick out a few pairs to keep for herself. Once you’re given something, it’s yours, really - but I admire her priciples.

@Kyeh Yes, she’s got above and beyond principles. I believe I have a strong moral compass, but I also know the FTC specifically says that packages that show up addressed to me are mine.

If they were addressed to someone else, that’s another issue. But a package shows up for djslack, it’s mine to do what I want. And if 140 of them show up, I believe I would also build Fort Target in my living room while I worked out what to do with them.

Maybe it’s not eBay. Maybe there’s a modern art installation waiting to be made with all those glasses. Chances are, I’ll never know.

I think it was @somf69 that got about that many trip glasses, but at least Meh had the decency to ship them as one pallet instead of hundreds of boxes.

@djslack I’m with you on that, especially since she contacted them repeatedly - and I suspect that Target might actually have preferred it if she’d just dealt with them so they didn’t have to send someone over!
