You know as soon as you sell it they will show up to take it back.

I would just start charging them rent !

Haha I know it’ll either be the same day or next day they’ll be there wondering where it is.

I would just tell them they have a week to get rid of it or you will. See what happens.

Long Chile was a silly place.

It’s not yours to sell. Yes, you are having to jump through hoops to get rid of it, but in the end you’ll know you did the right thing.

I’m sure that’s not the law, at somepoint it becomes abandoned. If a company delivered a hot tub to the wrong house and stuck it on their driveway and never picked it up you don’t have to deal with the hot tub you can’t move in the driveway for eternity.

Wrong, it is his to sell:

Q. Am I obligated to return or pay for merchandise I never ordered?
A. No. If you receive merchandise that you didn’t order, you have a legal right to keep it as a free gift.
Q. Must I notify the seller if I keep unordered merchandise without paying for it?
A. Although you have no legal obligation to notify the seller, you may write the seller and offer to return the merchadise, provided the seller pays for shipping and handling.

I'd wait 30 days after notifying them and then I would sell it.

Fine, legally they aren’t obligated to return it, but morally they are. Not returning the product doesn’t just hurt the manufacturer, it hurts the consumer too. The manufacturer has to raise the price to overcome thelosses.

They screwed up, but 2 wrongs don’t make a right.

I would call the manufacturer. Explain that you will follow up in writing. That they agreed on the phone to collect the merchandise within 7 days otherwise you would dispose of it

Quote the ftc that it is a courtesy inviting them to collect it but your role does not extend beyond that

Tell them on the phone this is not a negotiation. That based upon the law you have given them evry opportunity to collect this otherwise you will get rid of it

Now. I don't think it's worth their while to collect it

In Jan I sent a arc teryx jacket to be repaired. It has a life time warranty. They returned it to the wrong address. I called them and said you screwed my ski season. Lot of back and forth but they called and said pick a new one. I asked if they were goinf to get the olds one and they said no.

It was a 750-800 dollar jacket but the cost in time to pay for the time of the people they would have to collect it from, shipping back to them and then shipping to me just was not worth it.

I would call them. Follow up with email and then dispose of it. Honestly the cost of shippi g just won't be worth it

I know this, which is why I’m trying to return it but the damn box is so big I literally can’t lift it off the ground. So two wrongs don’t make a right but at somepoint, I’m not wrong for getting rid of the stupid thing. We don’t need a playhouse village in the backyard no matter how much my daughter would love it.

I posted about my gift card that LG sent me a while ago. I called and cancelled the card. It was easy and painless.

If they make it a pain I would certainly draw a line in the sand. Either they want it back or they don’t. Either way I’d get it in writing.

Oh, don’t sell it, donate it to a good cause. :-)

Here is what Minnesota's AG has to say about your situation. Probably the same in your state: (It's the same in mine - NY):

"...the street finds its own uses for things"

I agree - call- tell them it’s hail season and you need your garage back.

You will accept collection in the next 7 days or you will dispose of it.
