Two, actually. It was a bunch of PlayStation 2 games; sent to the wrong address. He knew nobody at his house ordered them, so he posted a few inquiries online, in local Craigslist and a few other places, for anyone missing a package of games (without identifying them).

It's been about two months and he hasn't gotten a single reply. Even crazier is that a few weeks after the package arrived, another identical one did. Most likely the customer said that the item never arrived, so the company sent out another one - to the same wrong address. Since it's been so long with no reply, he figured there's no harm in opening one of the sets of games to play himself.

The kicker is the name of the games - the entire .hack series.

Is Quarantine in there? I think that one might be worth some money.

I think so. I don't know them all, but he listed off several titles.

Actually the G.U. series took a hit in worth seeing as there's a PS4 re-release out for that series.

Do the right thing and mark them as wrong address and give them back to the delivery service. Don't be a thieving scumbag.

Keeping someone else's property, even when it was erroneously sent to the wrong address absolutely is stealing.

Since it wasn't addressed to your brother, if he opened it, I believe that's a federal offense.

That's what the sort of trashy people who want to rationalize stealing shit from other people try to tell themselves. It's taking someone else's property without permission. That is literally stealing.

Not me.

I'd assume after this long that the customer canceled and got a refund.

Your "brother" should at least attempt to return the item and explain to the vendor that they have the incorrect address.

GEORGE: No, no. No, no, no. It was not trash!

JERRY: Was it in the trash?

GEORGE: Yes.

JERRY: Then it was trash.

GEORGE: It wasn't down in, it was sort of on top.

JERRY: But it was in the cylinder!

GEORGE: Above the rim.

JERRY: Adjacent to refuse, is refuse.

GEORGE: It was on a magazine! And it still had the doily on.

Yes and no. It was at work, and in the original box (but clearly not new).
