What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NE
If you order something online and receive an item that is inaccurate (i.e., doesn't match the product description) or defective in some way, what, according to the law, is your obligation concerning return of the item? I found the following on the FTC Web Site, but does it apply to inaccurate and/or defective items as well? Thanks for any info.

Q. What should I do if the unordered merchandise I received was the result of an honest shipping error?
A. Write the seller and offer to return the merchandise, provided the seller pays for postage and handling. Give the seller a specific and reasonable amount of time (say 30 days) to pick up the merchandise or arrange to have it returned at no expense to you. Tell the seller that you reserve the right to keep the merchandise or dispose of it after the specified time has passed.
