They must really be trying to get rid of their inventory!

I just received a second Met-Rx set! I guess I'll have to call them next week. It doesn't look like I was charged yet.

Has anyone else who received multiple sets called or emailed Vitamin World?

What a PITA!

Ha ha, Alta. You've got yourself a veritable, ethical dilemma on your hands. Lots of ways to handle it, as personal as fitness. Being the highly creative soul you are I bet your response will be equally authentic based on context.

i hate to be mean, but i find this somewhat humorous.

on VF, we have seen the gamut of incorrect shipments:

1) never received [most prominent]
2) received but defective
3) received >1 and charged >1
4) exhorbitant shipping or excessive duty charges
5) unauthorized subscription/series of shipments

and now

5) latent second shipments that were not ordered

I emailed Vitamin World about this so-called third package of mine, and they have no record of it.

It occurs to me that it might be the 2nd package, the one I refused, just kinda circling in the Postal system.

I didn't make a note of the tracking information on this one, so I don't know it for sure.

If it shows up again, I'll check the tracking number before refusing it again.

I figure I'll call them after the 1st of the year. I'm not paying a penny to ship it back!

Would you mind posting what you learn? Calling them is on my "to do" list, but it's pretty far down. I wish I'd been able to refuse the package.

Thanks!

Haha. Vitamin World was notorious for #1. The latest drop shipments are truly karma. Lol.

Haha, they're not paying either. It cost less for them to gift it to you.
