Keep that shit. The company has no choice but to send the customer their parts they paid for. This kind of stuff happens to big companies all the time. One time summit sent me a fuel pump for a 65 skylark. It happens to everyone.

Why is everyone assuming this was someone else package?

Was OP's name on the box?

What if the shipper who packaged it put the wrong item in the box?

If the package had someone else's name I'd understand and send it back. If it was under the OPs name, I'd keep it and tell em I didnt get my weather stripping. What goes around comes around. Like the OP said, he got "stiffed" if that's the case then fuck it! Keep that shit

The OP didn't get stiffed, he's parts just haven't shown up yet. Has anyone here ever bought some expensive parts and had to wait? It has happened to me and on parts that are worth a lot more than some weather strip.

A couple years ago I bought my brother a Full Tilt Boogie bushing upgrade for his Terminator and I received it like a week later. Well a few months after that I get a shipping confirmation saying that my order had shipped, I'm like WTF. So I call them and they are like "yeah it should be at your door in a couple days" then I proceed to tell them I had already gotten my order and they made a mistake. That bushing upgrade is like $800, they wouldn't have known the difference but I couldn't sleep at night if I did that.

It had my name on it, but if I were to keep it i feel like the employee who packaged it would get in trouble and possibly lose his job. And I would not be able to sleep at night because I know how it feels to not have a job.

I sent it back. Yes it would be nice to have a nice new racing clutch, but I have always worked for everything in my life and I'm not about to stop!!
After getting back from dropping it off at fedex. My weather stripping was on my door step with my name on it.

Right on man, you did the right thing and you were rewarded [patriot] Just curious, did the shipping label on the box with the clutch have the same box dimensions as the weatherstripping box? maybe the shipper made duplicate labels by accident.

Maybe he felt stiffed but in reality that didn't happen. Sometimes it takes time to get parts

He hasn't got replacement parts and from what he says they told him too bad. Until he gets his parts id say that's pretty stiffed.

lol. it's not that serious.. You should of took the clutch and searched for someone that needed it and sold it for those $100 LMR gave you.. THAT would of been even better good karma. Actually helping a person out and not a company [patriot]
