credit question please help

I received a book in the mail a few months back that I did not order.  I meant to send it back but forgot.   I recently received a collection notice from a collection company.  I don't mind paying for the book but I'm worried about credit consequences if I do so.  Should I pay the collection company, pay the original bill from the publishing company, or do I have any other options?  Thank you.

How much are we talking? I would make sure they are not already reporting before you send any money.

If this is the first collection letter you recieved you should be fine, just pay it before 30 days is up. First check your cr and be sure it's not on there.
