Hi Folks,
Please allow me to set up a totally hypothetical scenario and ask you what you, as a woodworker, would do. Do NOT let the season or non-season of the year influence your response. Also, remember that this is a fully anonymous poll. The only reason that your name and address would be turned over to the "Bloods" and the "Cripps" is if you disagree with the opinion of your humble pollster. Here it is:
You ordered a new tool over the internet at an incredible savings below its retail price. The $200.00 price was about 1/3 of its MSRP. You received the tool and the invoice for $200. However, complicating the issue, you also received another, even MORE expensive tool as part of a "Combo" package. The second tool was listed at about $1200 MSRP.
The "special" advertised price of this $1800 MSRP "Combo" was $800. You now have an $800 "Value Package" with a financial obligation of only $200.
Your shop does not contain the "second" tool in the "combo". On your own, you would not have purchased it but it may come in handy as an "occassional use" tool.
Your "Legal" obligation is probably clear. In Wisconsin, as in most or all states, you have NO obligation to pay for or return any merchandise that has been delivered to you that has NOT been ordered!
What would YOU do?:
A. SMILE and put it in your shop!
B. Call the vendor and NEGOTIATE a "special" deal on the unordered tool. Remember that the Law is on your side.
C. RETURN the unordered tool.
