The story surprised the community and sparked a bit of envy

Can you imagine buying an expensive monitor for gaming and receiving an extra one by mistake? That's exactly what happened to a lucky player who was shocked when he received his Amazon package and found 2 Alienware monitors worth $900 USD each.

A Reddit user known as WRSA recently shared his story, explaining how the store ended up giving him the second monitor they mistakenly sent. Of course, the community was shocked since it’s a pricey peripheral. Some players congratulated WRSA for his luck, while others sent messages filled with envy.

Player Receives an Extra Monitor as a Gift by Mistake

To upgrade his setup and enjoy his favorite games, WRSA saved up to buy an Alienware 32 4K QD-OLED monitor, which has a suggested retail price of $900 USD. The player made the purchase on Amazon, and within days, his package arrived, but with an unexpected surprise.

Instead of just one monitor, he received 2 Alienware 32 4K QD-OLED units by mistake. He opened the one he bought and kept the other sealed, expecting that Amazon’s customer service would reach out to arrange for a return. He also mentioned he had no space to place the extra monitor and didn’t know what to do with it.

WRSA confessed that he initially had no intention of returning it unless the store contacted him, but nothing happened. So, he decided to inform Amazon’s customer support team about the situation.

To his surprise, the customer service team reassured him that he wouldn’t be charged for the extra monitor. Even more surprising was when they told him he could keep it as an early Christmas gift.

“Amazon is letting me keep an extra 4K monitor as an early christmas gift.”

Gamers who read his story were initially skeptical, thinking something had happened behind the scenes for the store to give such a generous gift. However, they later congratulated him on his great luck. His post filled up with all sorts of messages, including some with a hint of envy.

How WRSA Reacted to the Unexpected Gift from Amazon

The gamers who read the story were amazed, imagining receiving such a great gift like the one Amazon gave WRSA. Others shared that they had also received gifts from the store due to some mistake or confusion, but none as awesome as the monitor.

Some expressed their wish for a similar situation to happen to them when shopping online. “One day… One day I will make a post like this as well… one day. Now if you will please excuse me I need to go and cry in a corner,” said one player.

Others put themselves in WRSA’s shoes and imagined what they would do if they had his luck. Some said they would sell the extra monitor to buy something else for their PC. Finally, the community shared memes like the one you can see below:
