- I have been reading this thread with incredulity:
-
- More civilised countries, eg the UK, have laws about unsolicited goods,
- ie products you didn't order and so have no contract with the supplier.
-
- Basically, if anyone does send you things you didn't want, then
-
- 1 You don't have to pay for them;
-
- 2 You don't have to pay for them to be sent back;
-
- 3 You may dispose of them after a reasonable time.
-
- The only obligation is that, if the supplier does request his goods
- back within a reasonable time, you should make them available to him.
