So I went into my local shop to buy another controller. A novation zero mk1. So they didn’t have any bags big enough so put the box inside a bin liner. So I get home meanwhile not checking the contents of the bag. Open the bag to see has given me a novation sl25 mk2.
So what would you do in this situation? Phone the shop and return it or keep quiet
i know returning it is technically the right thing to do, but if i was in your position i would keep it. i bought a used 66 key m-audio controller from amazon in september…what shows up in the mail? an 88 key. needless to say i kept it
Well as I see it. The guy in the shop picked up from their storage department, carried it all the way back to the shop front then got 2 bin liner bags and put it inside and even at that didn’t notice it was the wrong product. Silly boy he is.
Are they faceless nobodies and you’d likely have trouble remembering the name of the guy who sold it to you in the first place? Keep it, but don’t spank the monkey for a week as penance.
Right down the middle with this one. Some of the guys in the shop are decent but the rest are dicks and couldn’t give a shit. Oh and I don’t know the name of the guy who sold it to me. He didn’t seem that interested in my sale to be honest.
I may go back and buy new gear but it wont be for at least another 6 months or so as I’ve waxed all my budget for the year already.
He doesn’t give a shit about you, then don’t give a shit about him.
It’s not like you stole it, and it’s not like you got it for free anyway… you gave them money, they gave you a product. The gears of capitalism spin on.
buy some other gear someday from the monetary difference between these controllers so they still have their money in the end. I bet that takes the bad karma right out of it.
