They had a shoebox from our store and inside was a pair of used shoes. They didnt look horrible but the white soles had yellowed a bit and everything. I then look at their receipt, which was not regular receipt stock, it was printed on a piece of paper a little thicker than printer paper. It had a store managers name on it I recognized but only heard rumours of, and it was dated the year I was in 10th grade in high school.
I told the lady(old) I couldnt return this its well beyond our policy, and she went "well, i dont know what I'll do with it" and I said sorry, nope and she walked off. I dont get what compels people to keep the same pair of semi ratty shoes for 12 years, or even what compels them to return them. I guess "it cant hurt to try!" but half the time its just a waste of my time. thought it was funny though. ... Copied to Clipboard!

At least she accepted the refusal. When I worked at Montgomery Wards, our Brings-Back-Ancient-Shit-Old-Lady wouldnt take no for an answer. The problem was the stuff was so old it wasnt even in our system anymore. Ive heard stories of people at my store bringing back ancient shit per managerial approval. Like some guy bought a tree, it died(likely because he couldnt take care of it), and returned it NEXT summer. I even heard a story that some guy was able to return a rusting 10+ year old swingset for...i dont know. just a story i heard. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I could go toe-to-toe with them. But the manager just said give them whatever they want back and say they can't sell to us anymore. There was just a list of names. --- 3DS Friend Code: 4742 6214 5315 Add Me because I'll probably add you. I'm probably the LinkPizza you'll see around. 0001 3388 9537, also. ... Copied to Clipboard!

REI return policy use to be very lenient, something along the lines of accepting returns regardless of how old. I can only guess it was abused too much so they've reduced the return to one year period which is still a long time.
I had a pair of $200 boots that I had hiked in for maybe 150-200 miles when one of the lace hooks tore out. I asked both the manufacturer and REI if they can just repair it but with a waterproof layer in-between, it wasn't really repairable to its previous state. The boots were still within the one-year return period and the associate actually suggested I simply return it for a new pair. I actually felt bad as I wanted to keep the same pair of boots and just repair them but overall was probably easier for everyone for me to just trade-in for a new one. --- "You must gather your party before venturing forth" "Go for the eyes Boo!
