This ever happend to you? Getting dvds and not knowing where they came from?

so i ordered some dvds last week from DDD, and i get them today but i also got another package sent with 4 strange dvds. I dont know where they came from, all i know is i did not order them. "i heart huckabees, the notebook, the grudge, and anchor man" No information was left on them... so what should i do repackage them and send them back? i havent ordered any dvds from ebay lately so i know it wasnt from there.. hmmmm



my dvds i ordered.... And the on the right the strange dvds....

Well, if you don't know where they came from, how can you send them back?

Looks like someone made a mistake and you win.

Hang onto them until your next credit card statement, if you have no form of receipt. If they don't show up on your statement, keep them I guess.

Well, were they addressed to you? You didn't open someone elses mail by accident did you?

The only DVD that I got where I was initially shocked by was Ladder 49 which came as a free-be from Amazon.com for writing a lot of reviews.

yes, they were addressed to me. Exact address and name. Hmmm The last time i ordered something used was on the amazon marketplace from 2 different people, but that was like 2 weeks ago so i dont see how they could have sent them to me by mistake.

Hmm...you weren't recently stoned and placed an order that you weren't aware of?

But like nowayjesus said, is there a return address?

Yes there is a return address on it. I only wish there was a phone number so i could get to the bottem of this. So what should i do? Send them back and leave a note telling them to pay me the shipping fee via paypal? Or wait until i see my credit card statement?

I have not had the same problem like you, but i live in a small town and i order a lot of dvd's. So my local post office sends every package that is from play or dvdstrax to me. I don't think they even look at the name, cause i have gotten maybe 20 dvd that where adressed to someone else. I did return them of course, but still. And if you want to i can take season 2 - 3 of alias of your hands.

Cordially Yours,
