Re: what shoul i do...
i recommend you send it back to him, and be happy he would refund the postage cost
chances are you'll get a glowing feedback report on ebay for it and possibly if you`re lucky some extra cash as a thank you with your case

Re: what shoul i do...
Send it back. He clearly knows where you live and you never know, this DVDRW could be his way of burning his sick snuff films onto a playable format so he can wank over them concealed in his attic, covered in cling-film with a 8inch rubber dildo inserted in him. Yet you've just denied him his release. The one thing thats stopped him killing again to sate his lust. You've denied him his one last oppertunity to stop all the murders. He knows the next time he'll never gain control again. He tries to think of something else but his sick perversion keeps surfacing. He’ll end up hurting someone he loves so he desperatly tries to isolate himself. He cant sit still at home so he goes for a drive. He find his thoughts linger on the blood stained hammer he knows he has in the boot. He aimlessly wanders around, his blood lust getting ever more intense. He isn’t concentrating on the road now and ends up lost. He drives around, half lost, half prowling for someone he can meet out his brand of sexual deviation and mindless slaughter to. He stumbles across a signpost that looks familiar. He remembers it from the address of that wanker who never returned his DVDRW. His last hope for salvation. He puts the boot down and tears up the street, knocking cute kittens down and rolling over poor crippled children who cant get out of the way soon enough. He laughs as he has to use his recently filled windscreen water with added LemonZest™ to wash away the squirting blood.
He crashes into your driveway and kicks the door in, carrying a petrol can and his love-hammer as he goes. He storms up the stairs and finds you cowering,pleading for your life. He proceeds to batter you into semi-conciousness. He takes out a knife and slices you a few times. He laughs as he pours petrol on your wounds, scalding your very being. He finally turns you over and porks your rear like a buck in heat before finally striking a match as he reaches the big ‘o’, burning you both alive in a fit of agony.
Then you’ll wish you’d returned his DVDRW.

Listen, I wrote it cause I though it'd be entertaining. Not so as I'd get nominated for some pointless poll this geekish cliqué partake in. I do like POTW now and again and it can provide some entertainment however it will never affect the reasons I post and what I post.
Plus I had been writing the same ****ing instructions on how to install software to handheld devices where customers who are too ****ing stupid to actually follow directions have messed things up so bad they accidently erase all their data then blame me for my specific instructions to do exactly the opposite of what they did. That sentance made sence, if you think not read it again.
I had reached the point where I either let off a long rant covering the darker portions of my sence of humour or I would have told every customer I encountered to take their Palm handhelds into the bath with them to clean the memory and then drop a plugged in toaster (with two slices of bread inside) into the bath with them to add the correct 'cleansing voltage', proceed to punch out my entire 'support' team of retards and college rejects, insert a desk sideways on into my utter f*ckwankcocktittyfu*kc*nt of a boss, light fire to the entire call centre and shoot several police officers I lured to the scene with reports of various bribes being handed out for fat overweight power hungry drug dealing cops.
Since I needed the job and don't plan on spending the next 25 years being anally penetrated by some hatchetfaced overweight musclehead named "Big Jim", I wrote that post.
IF THATS ALRIGHT WITH YOU.

Re: what should i do...
Did you get the case that you'd ordered from him?
If not then say you'll send it back to him once you've recieved what you actually ordered, or once he's confirmed it's on its way. May be a good idea to ask how much postage he's prepared to refund,although whatever he paid in the first place to send it to you would probably be the most obvious amount.

Bring what?! The fact that we've now hijacked a perfectly reasonable moral dilemma thread for our own purposes? Way to go, we're now both thread stealing nobs! I hope you can live with that! It meas our stock as falled on these boards and that certain individuals will put more effort into their sneers as they read out posts. Not that anyone can actually see those sneers but it makes them feel as if they are really living the 'disagreeable wanker' lifestyle to its fullest you see.
We are now outcasts from this pseudo-society. Forced to do without gay jokes, thinly disguised sexual innuendo and fully fledged sexual innudendo when they can't be arsed to be clever. Think of the horror! No more shall we be able to find our what some tit thinks about american forgien policy or what some random people have predicted the scores will be in an interesting social interaction where 22 men run around on some grass trying to get a small inflated item into some netting.
Oh no! Now we'll be forced to read our news from places other than posted bbc news site links.
I hope you're happy with yourself. I really do.
*quiet sob*

don't be silly
a gift is "words of gift with delivery"
in such a case there're no words of gift. thus the law of finding applies. but finding is trumped if the original owner asks for it back.
see?

So screw you. Old man.
Actually I had a more coherent argument but it was deleted as being too intellectual for this place and relaced with an article from "The Sun" about lesbian hardliners trying to adopt boys to turn them homosexual.
