Hey everyone. I have not posted here before but I have been a Transformers fan for several years. I have a problem which I'm not sure what I should do. Today I received by UPS a Masterpiece Starscream. I already have one that I ordered back in December. The thing is, this MP Starscream is painted in G1 colors and it is gorgeous. Nice custom job. The thing is, I never ordered it. The address is:

A3U
396-4800 Kingsway
Burnaby, BC

Anyone recognize it? While I would love to keep it, I don't want to pay for something I did not order. There was no receipt in the box either. Anyone have any suggestions?

I would write a letter to the mailing address to tell the proper recepient of the product that it came to you by mistake.

Good on you for not wanting to steal it. That's good karma.

Umm, I'd hide it in the closet. If noone claims it in 10 days, its yours. :-$

Email them, tell them about it. You never know, they might even offer it to you at a discounted price!

If theres no receipt or packing list, keep it. The original owner can take it up with the company it ordered it from and UPS will have to flip the bill since the dorks delivered to the wrong address.

Or you can sell it to me. PM me if interested in option 2!

Last year Christmas time I had 2 20th Anny Primes that I got at reasonable prices off ebay. I only needed one so I "returned" one to Target in exchange for a Cybertron Primus my stepson wanted. Not only did I get Primus, but the cashier put 20th Prime back in my bag as well. I then "returned" him at Walmart for more TF goodies.

Is that thievery?

Well, the address is for agesthreeandup.com. So you can contact them about it.

Thu Jun 14, 2007 2:44 pm

If its in any way possible, I would try and return it. More then likely they will reship it (hopefully) and it will get to go back to its rightful owner. After all, wouldn't you want the person to do the same thing for you if they got yours by mistake?

Um, yeah. Pure and simple. If you honestly missed that fact, you have failed at being an adult. If you don't care or miss that fact on purpose, you fail at being a person. You fall below it.

You sir, are *NOT* made of win. You're exact polar opposite of win.

...you make me sick. Your profile motto is: "Don't judge a member by their post count." No, we won't judge you by your post count, the caliber of your person is enough to tell us what we need to know. That you're a troll on and off the internet. I'd tell you to be ashamed of yourself, but really...what's the point? You'll just laugh like an idiot because you think it's funny. It won't be when it finally catches up to you.

Just so you know, Target and Wal-Mart do keep a record of returns, including your name, your Social Security Number and Driver's License Number, and a list of how many times you've returned an item. After a while, they look at that, and have to wonder if you're defrauding them. (Which you are)

Your honesty is astounding, and I am sure appreciated. I am unsure how this figure would have gotten into your possession but please contact me at spencer@agesthreeandup.com so that we can work out some compensation.

Spencer.

PS, thanks to all the honest people out there who pointed at my direction.

I'm disappointed in some of the people who said they would keep it.

WWPD

What would Prime Do?

Well somthing similar happent to me with an MP Megs. I got two insted of one now, yes I kept it, but payed for it!
So now I've got one MISB as an investment.

Fri Jun 15, 2007 7:23 am

My biggest concern was seeing a charge for it on my card.

Mon Jun 18, 2007 12:49 pm

Just contact the company. Make sure charges didn't show up.

Hi Highwayman75. Apparently, you somehow received the Masterpiece Starscream I had Spencer from Ages Three and Up customize for me. Does it look something like this?

It looks exactly like that. I haven't transformed it but the colors look the same. I E-mailed Spencer but have not heard anything back from him.

Ok, great! Please don't Transform him - I'd hate to risk the paint chipping.

Was there anything else with him? I had ordered two sets of extended Masterpiece Prime smokestacks that were getting shipped with him.

I heard back from Spencer. We're working out the details on shipping but you should hopefully get the Starscream next week. I didn't see the Prime smokestacks but I'll double check.
