    The next day the product arrived after all.  Yesterday I also got the product as promised. Whoa, two orders of the same thing (underwear).  What would you do?

    Post Script: the company couldn't believe this was possible, it couldn't happen so essentially, keep it.....

      When a company makes a mistake, it costs that company money. If you really think that it doesn't matter, why even ask here "what would you do"? You already know that some would just keep the product and others would be more honest. And you?

        I’m up in the air (it’s the weekend, no shipping ). I have until Monday to decide. I like y’all opinions. (I’ll call them)

        Wear them, then ask the company if it's ok to send them back.

            I'd be tempted to keep the extra order and say nothing. The honest thing to do is contact the company again and tell them there was a duplicate order shipped. They might let you keep them.
