Local in Mississippi, an Olive Branch man got a lot more than he paid for when he ordered his wife a Christmas gift online.
Olive Branch alderman, Dale Dickerson, ordered his wife a diamond bracelet for Christmas, but that’s not exactly what he got. This story will blow your mind!
Dale Dickerson paid $2,000 for a diamond bracelet that he ordered online.
When Dale opened the box, there were 48 real diamond bracelets inside.
Dale said, “I stood there and just stared at it for I don’t know several seconds cause I didn’t know what to do I literally just stared at it and just dumbfounded.”
This is a story you might see in the movies, but it happened to Dale Dickerson.
“I was a nervous wreck,” said Dale.
He ordered his wife, Sherry, a $2-thousand diamond bracelet for Christmas from a company called Jewelry Unlimited based in Atlanta, Georgia. When Dale received his shipment, there were 48 diamond bracelets in the box but no paperwork. Just a hand-written label inside.
“I was like, you are kidding me,” said Sherry.
After he caught his breath, Dale called the company.
“A manager came on, and I could tell he had a lot of panic in his voice,” said Dale.
In this email sent to Dale, the manager thanked him for his honesty. Dale sent the bracelets back.
Jewelry Unlimited sent the Dickerson’s a pair of diamond earrings as a thank you for returning all the bracelets.
“I love the bracelet but you know 48 would’ve looked better wouldn’t it? No hahaha, I’m kidding! I love the bracelet,” said Sherry.
The Dickerson’s aren’t sure how this happened.
“I don’t know whether there was a mix up with inventory coming in or if it was some kind of illegal activity and they were gonna ship it to somebody, and they just put it in the wrong box,” Dale said.
“I’ve said all along I think that was an inside job and the wrong label got on the wrong thing,” Sherry said.
“Jewelry Unlimited just giving it away hahaha,” said Dale.
We spoke with a manager at Jewelry Unlimited who said his boss is out of town for the holidays. He told us he’ll try to reach his boss to hopefully give us an explanation about what happened.
