Last year my wife ordered two chairs. A week after they were delivered she got an e-mail saying they were lost and replacements would be sent.

I don't know if that's a Wal-Mart problem or the third party or the shipper, but now we have four chairs.

A guy in my office ordered a 60-inch LCD TV. They delivered. Two weeks later another arrived. Customer service wouldn't acknowledge the first, so now he has two.

That's a situation where I feel like saying something could only make things worse.

I once ordered a notebook from Amazon and ended up getting a phone case (they sent a replacement). Bizarrely, the original notebook arrived the following week, so I ended up with two notebooks and a phone case.
