it's not stupid - stealing is stealing; it's stealing in another form. Get you're morals straight!
I think you would see a prostitute getting raped by someone and just walk by and say, she deserved it because she's a whore. The difference here is that he KNOWS his iPad has arrived after he got a refund. Sure it was a mistake but you don't go and collect just because you need to "let them pay". This world needs more people with moral values and ethical principals.
The best thing about this thread is the fact that someone came to MacRumors forum to solve an ethical dilemma....
Actually they farm it out to a totally independent "claims adjustment" company. I have their name at the office. The seem to get a commission on every claim they REFUSE because they seem to refuse quite a few that are obviously UPS fault (items damaged inside a box).You bring up a good point. I am sure that UPS has an entire department that works to investigate these claims. I wouldn't imagine that they just shrug and take a loss of a few hundred dollars.
I had the same situation a few months ago, except my product is a 65" TV ($2900).
Don't return it. Apple or whoever you got it from is getting reimbursed through their insurance claim.
I know what the moral says... but I dont like UPS!!!
Apple gets money either way.
Sale it now. Christmas came early for u lol![]()
UPS get their money also. They know it was claimed but had to deliver it anyway. Since an insurance claim was made they have to deliver it. Someone is double dipping in this process. It might as well be you.
You can pretend that you didn't know which is which. If you're lucky, they won't track you and after 30 days have past it would be safe to open the second and start using it.
guys... i know what yall saying, and i agree.
but if you were in my position, right now... some of you would at least thinking about keeping it...
Your not robbing anyone. You paid for insurance. You people are complicating something that is not.
He paid for insurance, apple and UPS are getting paid for it. Now your telling him to pay one them twice. Come on thats the stupidest thing that I have ever heard. Do you think the insurance company is losing money
Its how the system works. He ordered something and paid for insurance. It was lost, so a claim was made. After the claim was made the shipping company delivered it. Apple got paid and so did UPS. He was inconvenienced and is the customer. Its his merchandise because apple was PAID. Do you understand that? He didn't steal anything. You make no sense.
Keep it.
Obviously the question is not what you should do. We all know what SHOULD be done.
And I can honestly say if it happened to me, I would do nothing.
I know what I would do...mwahahahaha!
I'm sorry but if it's the insurance company that misses out I just don't care. Insurance companies are some of the least ethical companies out there, a taste of their own medicine is deserved
My advice, tell everyone you returned it, then just keep it.
Do you think the shipper will tell their insurance to cancel the process if you tell them you got it?
If you take it back to UPS somewhere will just keep it.

grow up and do the right thing - which is stop trolling because I don't believe this really happened.
We are talking about apple. They as are most large companies insured for this stuff. Its a totally different process and believe me that they don't what the product back.
Don't return it. Apple or whoever you got it from is getting reimbursed through their insurance claim. Its part of the shipping process and consider yourself lucky. Insurance is getting paid, the postal service got paid, and so did the vendor. I know it sounds bad but thats just how the process worked. You didn't ask for this, steal it, or do anything wrong.
come on people - where are your morals? So robbing one that robbed another is ok? jesus, let's have some real human principals here!
