Seldom Killer is wrong.
you are not guilty of theft. You are not even at risk of being guilty of theft.
The Unsolicited Goods and Services act, 1971 makes it an offence for a company to demand payment for goods they have sent you that you didn't ask for.
The extra box is legally yours, and you are under no obligation to either inform them of their mistake, or return the box. Some companies claim the right, in their terms and conditions, to reclaim duplicate orders, under the Sale of Goods act 1979. This has not been tested, but the presumption is that this claimed right is invalid, and has no legal force.
