A well known saying I'm sure you all agree but despite us all knowing honesty is the best policy how many of you would actually cough up with out been prompted?

This comes from a topic in the office today, a co worker ordered a christmas gift from the states.
It didn't arrive in time so on Friday 4th he complained and they sent him another one. The delivery came on Wed's 8th (i think).
However now a second parcel has arrived (marked as dispatched on the 8th)...

Now morally speaking he "should" contact the company and inform them of the mix up... but would you?

A few facts to consider:
This is an expensive item, a £300 piece of electrical goodness,
Both deliveries were signed for as received,
They don't have any debit card information as the initial purchase was done by voucher.
The only means of contact they have is email.

So I put it to you, what would YOU do. Dont give fairy tails of idealist situations I'm intrigued to see just how corrupt/angelic we all are.
