I'm now sending the beaters someone else won (and were sent to me) to the correct person and the person who received my beaters is sending them on to me. How disorganized is this seller? This complete lack of attention to important details is exactly the kind of thing that drives me crazy,
What would you have done if he had sent you a few HTF's in error?? :lol:

I'd send them back, just like I sent the money back to the seller (when ebay refunded all my money & shipping costs when all I asked the seller for was a $5 break on the price of the item he misrepresented).

If a seller sent me someone else's package by error, that's not mine to keep. It belongs to the person who paid for it and I have a responsibility to see that (at minimum) the package gets returned to the seller. By the same token, the seller has a responsibility to make sure the items I bought are located and sent to me.
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."

I am glad to see there are still honest people out there.
