if i refuse delivery, can i expect my bank will give me a chargeback?

I really do appreciate everything everyone is posting, but either I am that dense, or you're not understanding the direction I am trying to point the argument in. I don't appreciate the personal comments though.


but can at least tell/explain to me, if the FedEx man comes to the door and I refuse to take the package, it gets sent back to the original seller...if there is enough reasoning (be it mean spirited/rude/heartless/whatever) that I can contact my bank and dispute the charges, because I never physically recieved the tickets.

Yes, no? please give me a bit of reasoning behind what you're saying so I can either accept my fate either way lol

Mr FedEx will probably enter into his little machine (they do have a name but I cannot for the life of me remember what the heck those things are called) that you refused delivery of the item.

This is NOT the same as you not receiving the item - at least in terms of your right to dispute the charge. If attempts at delivery are made without success and these attempts can be verified (which, it would appear, would be the case) the seller will still be in the right - realistically the only recourse you would have had would have been if the seller had not sent the goods at all. This is clearly not the case.

You can always try to dispute the charges with the bank but in this instance the seller is not in the wrong.

I know the seller wasn't in the wrong, I place the blame firmly on my wife haha, I was just trying to find a loophole (right or wrong).Thank you for that explanation, and it makes sense...just when I googled people refusing to accept packages they were able to get refunds, or dispute charges which is where I became confused.

I guess the only chance I got is if they get delivered to a really lazy neighbor haha

Well, you'd have to take him/her to small claims..and that's a whole different animal ...

(Another more serious consideration)

If you do refuse delivery and indicate that you will not accept delivery in the future you may find that you're actually in breach of the contract; that means that the vendor may have a further cause of action against you.

We both know you don't want to go down that path.

I would love to know what the end result was Joe. I came across your question as I googled something the same for myself. In my case a package is on the way to a cousins address, but in my name. Its will arrive too late for my purpose and when I tried to cancel , the lady in customer service actually suggested that I have my cousin refuse delivery and that it should then arrive back to them. I just wonder if the fact that I don't live at that address will be an advantage, as obviously I can't sign for it.

Your situation sounds totally different. In THIS thread, our OP is trying to screw somebody out of concert tix that his wife bought because he feels they're too expensive.
