What should I do? Send BASKETBALL GOAL to vacation rental across the country!

[WatchingThemGrow]

Somehow, the address of our ski vacation got into my Amazon account and a $600 basketball goal and other items were delivered there! I called Amazon, and they've replaced them all, but what should I do about the items sitting at the condo!!!??

Is it your condo or someone else’s? If it’s yours, can you have your cleaner / management move them inside for you? If it’s someone else’s condo, give them the heads up so they can have someone bring them in. Is Amazon requesting they be returned?

The basketball net will likely be massive and too heavy to someone to move on their own and in a huge box (is it one meant for big kids, that is one that has a base, that can be moved around or one meant to be installed in the ground?). Is there someone who can make sure Amazon can come pick it up?

So.... I feel like a fool!

Amazon is replacing it and shipping us a new one.

I just made the front desk's day by calling to admit it is ours! The local second-hand sporting goods store isn't interested in it. (Not sure why not!?) Someone there suggested FB marketplace, so that's what I'm going to try!

Maybe there is a school or parks and rec that could use it.

Oh, a school would have been great!!

I messaged a friend in CO, and she reached out to her friend in Steamboat with 3 kids. They were excited about it, and her DH went right over to pick it up!

I'm so thankful Amazon forgave my $600 mistake!

So curious, is this a regional term "basketball goal"?

I guess hoop is the more precise term? Whatever it is... that big thing!

It might be — I understood what OP was talking about

You don't call it that?
