UK Retailer Mistakenly Sends PS Vitas, Threatens Legal Action To Get Them Back 617

The company is now threatening legal action against those who have kept theirs despite a request to return them. It's unclear whether the Distance Selling Act protects consumers who have mistakenly been sent an expensive item, and forums such as Eurogamer seem divided on the issue."

Just kidding, I never thought this was restricted to any subset of the human population.
