They always honour price adjustments. Best customer service in the business. Also when an item sells out it always acts buggy like that.

Sa-kis online order drama...

 

I ordered something from their sale. They sent me the wrong shirt. I contacted them. They want me to return the shirt (initially paying for the shipping myself, which they say they'll reimburse), and THEN they'll send me the right shirt.

 

Sounds pretty not cool, no?

 

I requested they send me a pre-paid envelope to return the item. 

 

I don't even think I'm legally obliged to return the item, but I just want the m'er f'in shirt I ordered, and which they charged me for...(and which, coincidentally, is worth less than the shirt I ordered)...

 

Thoughts? Advice?

You are obligated to return the item. The only time you wouldn't be is if they sent you merchandise and billed you for it even though you didn't place an order. File a dispute with your credit card and go from there.

According to the Federal Trade Commission, I'm not obliged to return it:

 

"If you receive merchandise you didn’t order, 

federal law says you can consider it a gift. You 
can’t be forced to pay for the item or return it."
 
from....
 
VLSI, do you have a source that says otherwise?
 
And surely I'm not obliged to return it on my own dime, simply because they promise to pay me back.

Same thing just happened to me with dot-mi when I ordered an sns piece. All the labels on the outside were correct, but the contents inside belonged to someone else.

They want me to ship the item back to Italy, wait for the person who recieved my item to ship it back, and once they've recieved both returned items they will ship the correct items. Feel like this could take weeks, but I don't really have any options in this situation.

I really don't think you're obliged to send it back. Ask them to send you a pre-paid shipping envelope. And cancel your order with your credit card company if you suspect they're gonna give you trouble.

You are obligated to send it back, especially if you get the charge disputed. If the shop doesn't offer to pay/reimburse return shipping, then you should be rightfully angry and have a legit claim. It sucks they made the mistake, but they're owning up to it... stop trying to take advantage of the situation. If you can't wait so long for the right merchandise to get to you, you should always be able to cancel the order and get a refund including all shipping costs (after having returned the wrong merchandise).

Funny, Unionmade sent me the wrong color SNS sweater, but I like the one they sent, so I am keeping it.

I ignored hall monitors before (in high school) and it never really worked against me.

According to what? The FTC disagrees with you.

 

But legalities aside, I am more than happy to do the honest thing and send it back. So long as they send me a pre-paid envelope. USPS can't track/delivery confirm international mail. And I live in a rural area, so I'm not driving 30 mins+ to ship it UPS/FED EX.

No, they don't. You're a moron.

USPS can track international packages. Also, you're a moron.

Sorry to derail the thread, but do you happen to know if this pair had those same issues? I'm considering buying them.

The above is meant to protect consumers against the "negative option."

Because this was an honest error, you do have limited legal obligation. However, they are in the wrong, and they must shoulder all responsibility and expenses. You also get to dictate the terms, but they have to be reasonable:

Q. What should I do if the unordered merchandise I received was the result of an honest shipping error?
A. Write the seller and offer to return the merchandise, provided the seller pays for postage and handling. Give the seller a specific and reasonable amount of time (say 30 days) to pick up the merchandise or arrange to have it returned at no expense to you. Tell the seller that you reserve the right to keep the merchandise or dispose of it after the specified time has passed.

Of course, the merchant is a moron. Clearly, the right thing for them to do is to ship you out the new merchandise using expedited shipping, and also send a return envelope. In many cases, the better retailers (like Mr. Porter) will actually issue you an additional credit for your inconvenience. After all, you paid for goods with a reasonable expectation that it will arrive in X amount of time. Mr. Porter and all really seasoned web stores know that if they make a mistake, the best policy is to eat it. I bought a Jeanshop briefcase from them. and they fucked up the shipping. Then I ordered something else, and they fucked it up even more. So, they sent both via UPS next day shipping (about a $100 expense, with the weight of the goods and size of the box) and then credited me an additional $100 for my inconvenience. Yes, their selection can be pretty dull, and their styling, even more so, but they know their customer service.
