Here you go - complete fuckwitery by Amazon. We can return the gift as unwanted and Amazon will credit my account with the value of the gift. They won’t allow it to be returned to the sender / their account to be reimbursed because of Data Protection rules - which is a cop-out pile of pants.
I shall now be sending all of you 15 inch anal intruder vibrating butt plugs to your significant others safe in the knowledge that Amazon will not let you return the fuckers… Assuming you want to of course
Yeah, it’s a weird one innit. I reckon the people on here (and associated forums) who’ve known me long enough could work out my identity and address if they wanted to. Fatso has sent me parcels of his used knickers for years. You can build up a profile of someone over time without having to ask too many explicit questions.
Actually doing it though is crossing a boundary.
What’s the spec on the mic though? It might be worth keeping that.
To be fair the advice of premenopausal wimmin is the more sensible route - so Mrs C_S has told me. Not that she thinks Sotonians are like something unpleasant you find on the bottom of your shoe…
Teenage Mutant has only contacted said bloke to say thanks but no thanks tbf. We’ve been more interested in figuring out how to return the “gift”. Next step is to start to ask those questions - it’s all a bit weird. Not sure how I should be handling it to be fair - the boy is uncomfortable but Apart from the address thing I’m frankly bewildered about what to do next.
Seems pretty straightforward to me. If they’re mates why doesn’t your son just say “Thanks but no thanks. By the way, how did you get my address?” If the bloke gets funny, he’s obviously a strange one. If he has a perfectly legitimate explanation just say “OK, thanks, if you give me your address I’ll return the gift”.
Look at this bizarre story. It seems to be a thing in America (surprise) where gamers call 911 and give an address and get armed police sent to that house… in this story the caller pretended to have shot his dad and was going to kill his family… So the police turn up, the actual bloke living in the house has no idea what’s happening, reaches to his waist for some reason and the police shoot him dead. And that’s a hoax apparently. What is wrong with people? Is this an American thing, a gamer thing or an American gamer thing?
