I believe he is holding the incorrect package hostage until he gets his correct package. Then, at his convenience, he will mail them their incorrect package back. When he can find time to get to the post office. 8 months from now.

He only has time to post but not to put a label on the package and send it back so his nightmare could be over. He also says he is about to take vacation and I’m not sure I have ever seen someone who needs it more.

Heritage IS holding his PAID for item(s) hostage. They are 100% in the wrong IMHO. Why would the OP have to go out of his way to appease the morons who sent him the wrong package.

Ben....I sadly disagree with you. If they were to immediately send him his package, what makes you think my scenario would not play out EXACTLY as I predicted??

To me your scenario is completely irrelevant. He has paid for his item(s) and there is absolutely no reason they should be holding them hostage. Who is to say Heritage will send him his items after he returns the package their incompetent employee sent him?

Either way I hope everyone ends up with their correct items. I am just confused by all the attacks on a innocent victim.

Heritage is the largest AH in the world, it's not going to keep the guy's items. It just made a mistake in shipping. It's just like an ebay return, would you expect a seller to refund your money before you send the item back?

Heritage might not keep them but they sure are holding them hostage. It is nothing like a eBay return by any stretch of the imagination.

I know if it happened to me I would expect my paid for items to be shipped out as soon as they discovered they have not been shipped. I would return the wrongly shipped items at my convenience.

I have been that incompetent moron who shipped the wrong item to a seller a few times. I used to sell over 100 different items a week for several years. Every time I screwed up I did one of two things. I either told the seller to hold the wrong item till the correct one shows up and then return the wrong item. I also have told the buyer to just keep the wrong item and the correct one will be on its way ASAP. Both of these also come with an apology for any inconvenience my mistake might have caused them.

What happened to Christie's and Sotheby's? Heritage is third largest.

Ben, no one is saying Heritage isn’t wrong here. However it would take him minutes to resolve this, time which he claims he doesn’t have, yet he has the time to post multiple times on this thread. His item is $200 apparently, theirs is many multiples. I imagine if their conversations with him went anything like the conversation here, they decided they wanted their item back first. After skimming through the thread again I’m not sure I can blame them.

Appears that HA sent him 867 1961 Topps baseball with stars and HOFer's from June 30 auction...lot 45126, post 13 of this thread...kind of a big screwup...

Because people make mistakes and two wrongs do not make a right.

It’s a complete dick move that the OP isn’t trying to correct the situation ASAP.
Heritage is one of the top auction houses out there, I doubt they’re going to tarnish their reputation by screwing the OP out of his peanut winnings.

This!! Send the package back already and move on. That is SOMEONE ELSE'S WINNINGS you are holding on to!!! I can PROMISE you Heritage will send you your item.

[asphaltman]

It really doesn't seem that hard. You put the packing slip on the exact same package they sent to you. You're not having to repackage anything. Why go nuts over the fact you don't have your package yet? I have bought from Heritage fairly regularly over the years. They've always come through. They are certainly on the bottom end of auction houses I worry about.

You said you'll ship theirs back as your schedule permits...in other words, you'll get to it when you get to it. You were posting on this board in this thread yesterday from 130PM to after 930PM....is you're schedule really that busy you can't drop this off with FedEx?

[chriskim]

I bought a Henie Wagner and HA mailed me a Honus Wagner........ that's my dream last nite.

(Yes, I mailed it back after they back charged me)

This is the reason that I can't be sympathetic to the OP's position.

My understanding from the OP is that he is wanting his cards sent at the same time. Is that really unreasonable?
