Mint goofup does me a favour

2 days ago I received my silver PROOF set order (4 sets).
Today, I received 4 more sets. So I began to research what happened, and it appears that they shipped my Manually ordered 4 sets second, and
my subscription sets first. Problem is that I cancelled the subscription about a week before the silver PROOF sets were released.
I looking at the sets that arrived today (the ones shipped on my regular order) they are crap, total crap, there are signs of mishandling, scuffs, cameo breaks
and repeating marks (marks on the same coins, in the same place in each set) indicating that perhaps the dies were abused or just used too long.
At any rate, had the mint not (mistakenly) shipped my cancelled susbscription order, I'd either be stuck with garbage or need to do a return/replacement.
As it is, I'll just ship these back for refund.

I hope that they give you the refund, and don't simply confiscate it.

They can't just confescate, as they did charge my visa for them. But I will need to keep an eye on that to make sure it does get credited back
