Received someone else's order

I already posted about this in another sub, but some of the responses are negative and I don't really understand the hostility on that sub, so I figured I'd try here as I'm really trying to figure this out.

Long story short- I've been working with a watch TS for about a year. Recently, a watch I ordered got confiscated. About a week after I found that out, I received someone else's order- 2 packages: one consisting of a watch and a brand box and the other is 2 brand boxes. I opened them because I'm currently waiting on several packages, so I didn't know what they were. (I'm hoping you all know how this is lol)

The TS wants me to ship it back to them overseas (offered to pay for this) but I don't know how I feel about exporting this type of product. I also don't feel comfortable just keeping it because it's not mine. I also said in the other post that due to my job, it's very difficult for me to get to the post office, which is how the TS wants me to ship it back to them (I was told this is a poor excuse). The TS asked me if I wanted to buy it, and I don't.

So.... I'm just wondering if this has happened to any of you with bags or apparel and what you did.

If anything, I'm thinking about shipping it back to the courier here in the US who mailed it to me- it has a name and address and I know that's not the TS, but atleast they are here in the states.

I feel bad for whoever's order this is

Advice: Received someone else’s order…

I’ve been working with a TS for the last year. I recently placed an order for a watch with extra links. It was confiscated at US customs, and is allegedly being sent back to the TS. Anyway, about a week after I find that out, two different packages arrived. I order a lot of things, so I wasn’t sure what they were or who they were from. When I opened them, I recognized the TS packaging and how they write order numbers on the packaging. But it was not my order. (A watch and 3, yes 3, brand boxes)

I reached out to the TS and let him know that I received these two packages that are not mine. He wants me to ship them back to him and I don’t know how I feel about that since I would be exporting replicas. I totally understand why the TS might not want to tell me what address they’re supposed to be shipped to here, because of privacy and what not. He’s offering to pay for the shipping, but the logistics for me to even get to the post office when it’s open is challenging (I’m a first responder) but I feel bad for whoever’s order this is.

What would you do in this situation?

Edited to add: whoever is down voting this- why? This seems like a genuine pickle to me. I have a moral conscious and I don’t want to keep something that isn’t mine but I also don’t want to export replicas. The TS asked me basically if I was willing to buy what was sent to me and I said no. I want to try to preserve my relationship with the TS, if possible.

JPG 42 experimental love

So, after years of saying I don’t like the JPG shoulder Birkin, I found myself pining for one. After many months of plotting and obsessing, I was still torn about getting a 42 vs 29. The 29 seemed like an “easier” choice, but the 42 and how it demands attention also appealed to me. I did what any reasonable bag-a-holic would do- I got a starter one as an experiment. You know, just to see if I like it 🤪🫍🫠

For reference, I am about 6 ft tall. I knew the 42 would be big but I was not prepared for how heavy it is. Due to how heavy it is, it’s not a good choice for schlepping all day.

JPG shoulder 42- technically fits on my shoulder but cannot wear it on my shoulder. My friend who is smaller than me could not really wear it on her shoulder comfortably, either.

Domestic Clemence leather in Blue Jean, partially hand sewn.

PS- I’m purposely not sharing the seller because I’m tired of the negativity and this post is more about the size and style and not the quality of this particular bag- although I think it’s excellent quality for what I paid 💅🏻

PPS- I just got a facial and my aesthetician has a huge mirror, which I don’t have so please be kind lol
