They still might charge you. It doesn't always show up on your account right away

Haha. Well either way Im sure they will end up charging him for it and if not he can enojoy a free mod, but I had something like this happen to me only reversed :/ I sold one of my class books on ebay and didnt feel like making extra trips to the post office so I shipped the book along with some other stuff before the guy even paid.. I assumed he would pay while it was in transit and he would get the book quickly.. ******* never paid and I lost like 60-70 bucks on the book lol.. Learned my lesson not to do anything nice for people or send **** without getting paiddd

That sucks about the text book, On a serious note I do agree about Karma. I'm sure DEPO had a tracking number and they will soon count 1 short of their inventory and say "What the hell...bignaldo has our headlight"....hope not but you never know.

very true! Be honest lol but keep in mind! They legally can come after you. Just like any company accidentally sending you the wrong amount for a check and you cashed it and you try try to deny it it's considered grand larceny..but not for that small amount. But keep in mind they have tracking methods for shipping the past 20 years lol

Wait you ordered lights, then changed bank accounts and closed the one that you ordered it with?

That's not finders-keepers or anything. That's fraud.

Yes that is definately Fraud. Now if someone on this Forum is in some way affiliated with the distributor of these headlights our OP here might have a problem.

Don't they have the shipping address in their records? I really doubt the company is that incompetent and would overlook something like this. If anything, they'll re-send a bill and/or pursue legal consequences, both deserving.
