Date: January 12th, 2018 1:10 PM Author: wine really tough guy moishe buys a book online. the vendor says it's supposed to arrive in a week, but it doesnt. he contacts them and they say to wait another week. he contacts them after another week, and they tell him that they've gone ahead and sent him out a second book. within a week, both books arrive.
what are moishe's obligations with respect to the two books? |

If requested by seller within a reasonable time, must return one book if not materially inconvenient. |

Date: January 24th, 2018 11:03 PM Author: Provocative Cuckoldry Step-uncle's House without the company asking for the first book back one should assume they knew he would get two books and that's to boost him coming back which they've calculated as being more profitable than him getting one late book then shopping elsewhere. this is an economic behavioral issue and outside morality at this juncture.

Date: January 24th, 2018 11:04 PM Author: fiercely-loyal racy candlestick maker locus This is much more nuanced then at first glance (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3857363&forum_id=2#35231409) |
|
Date: January 24th, 2018 11:10 PM Author: Clear Costumed Hall Goal In Life At no point does he demand another book, he checks status with them in these calls as a normal buyer would.
They send a second as good business practice almost certainly knowing that things do not get lost in transit in the modern age. They chose the shipping company and they chose this action.
How can they create an obligation on him to ship a book back to them? What is the basis? |
|
Date: January 26th, 2018 4:47 PM Author: wine really tough guy SOLUTION:
the first book is considered a lost object.
the threshold question is whether the vendor is a jew.
a jew must return lost objects to another jew. so, if the vendor is a jew, moishe needs to make a reasonable effort to notify the vendor and ask them how to proceed. the vendor needs to mitigate any loss by moishe, i.e. arrange for the return shipping and not inconvenience him.
a jew generally has no obligation to return a lost object to a non-jew, and in most cases he is specifically FORBIDDEN from doing so for various reasons (eg it will make jews look like fools and suckers). the only time a jew is even permitted to return a lost object to a goy is if it will make the jewish nation look good.
if the vendor isn't jewish, there's no evidence that moishe would get goodwill for the jews out of sending the book back. |

Date: January 27th, 2018 12:29 AM Author: fiercely-loyal racy candlestick maker locus This is the most obvious one - but there is also Deut 24:19 to consider which is why I posted about this being much more nuanced than it appears from the first glance (most plain interpretation)
Under this vein of reasoning the book company shouldn't ask for it back if they are Jewish owned. |

I came in here to make a joke that the answer depends on whether the seller is a Jew or not |

That isn't even close to what has historically caused Jews trouble. |
