Received wrong item..keep or return? (1 Viewer)

Im affraid to ask what a yeezy is?

Does this belong in my stupid question thread?

It's Kanye's shoe line with Adidas. Yeezy shoes have pretty much taken over Jordan as the most sought after shoes by sneakerheads. His most famous pair (back when he was with Nike) are the Red October's, which you can find on the resale market for a very affordable (if you're Chet) $10,000.

I get through the day just fine by not saying derogatory things about people’s kids on here.

Oh this should be good, what did I say that was "derogatory" about your kid?

Most people know better than to make snide or insinuating comments about other people's children.

this seems to happen a lot in the sneaker forums i browse. the goodwill of letting customer keep shipping errors vs. trying to claw them back generates positive vibes for the company that keeps people coming back 

those $200 Nike's cost Nike like $14 to make, warehouse and ship. if they sink cost on a few dozen out of the tens of thousands they ship... meh to their bottom line.

I know how Judgy McJudgerson I sound about this but to me...it's not about Nike at all.

I know stuff like this is baked into their numbers and it's not a big deal to their bottom line.

But if I get something I haven't paid for or earned, I don't like. I have to at least make the attempt to give it back, just to feel like I've done the right thing.

The lady at the dry cleaners wanted to give me a full security guard's uniform last week and I was just there to retrieve my Calvin Klein button up.

Dude, if you think that is "derogatory", so sad.

And why?  You going to go tell on me?

Claiming I should be worried my son wants vans is a derogatory statement.  That is fact.

 No need to tell on you posty...you will get booted as you always do on your own.

 

[sho nuff]

Dude, you are mislead as usual.  I have always heard that Vans are very bad for the feet and arch support.  You think that is derogatory?

Wow.

Yeah that’s what it was about...maybe you should stop now and get your posts in while you can...and stop pm’ing me, it’s creepy.

He’s posty.  I know what he is.  Probably a post there at FFT now from him saying how awful this place is that he can’t seem to leave.

Amen Brother

A few months ago my daughter bought a dress and a few other things. She got home and realized the woman forgot to ring the dress up and she was happy she got a "freebie". I told her she has to take it back, that it's the right thing to to do and basically she was stealing. Well she got pissed at me for making her feel bad and couldn't believe I was actually saying that. I told her she wasn't raised liek that but she she;s 27 and she can make up her own mind and I dropped it.

A few days later she told me that I was right and she took the dress back to pay for it. For her honesty they gave her 25% off.

Depends. If it’s Amazon - keep. Anyone else - return.

This was my initial reaction, too. But then I got all Kantian in my brain.

should ask lowe what his preferred shoe brand is. what's wrong with vans? sounds like an old man thing to say. also ask him how old he is. or he might prefer rollerblading. that's probably it!

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

You will never get what you ordered, what you bargained for as you bargained for vans with no delivery hassle, delivered on time.  what you have here is a hassle with the company.  To be honest you are now forced to spend your time and effort clearing up their error, that was not what you bargained for. 

Me, I probably contact them and get it straightened out, but if they are not properly appreciative I refrain from giving them my business in the future.
