    That isn't a law. That is a store policy. A store can't call the cops on you for trying to return something not in accordance with their policy.

    If anyone can make a policy and call the cops on someone for violating it, then I'm Gunna make a policy that every post you make you need to give me $1. That is my policy. If you don't follow it I'll call the cops .....

    See how crazy that sounds? There is no crime here. Now if someone STOLE merchandise and tried to return it to a store, that is theft and they can call the cops. Additionally, I bet a lawyer could try to make a case if you did it at scale somehow, that mass returning of items is fraud if you are untrue about how you got them. However if you go up and say I would like to return this item, and they do it, you have not lied, or broken an laws. If they say "are you the oringal purchaser and bought it within the last 30 days?" And you LIE about both those to complete the return, a case could be made for fraud or theft by decite.... But.... Just returning the item, in and of it self is no criminal act





    .... At least I think..idk disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer and this isn't legal advice

    Wow! Sherlock effing Holmes! What did you do, go to t00nces2.com to expose my secret identity? What you just did there and tried to do to me is exponentially more douchebaggy than me returning an occasional new, unopened item purchased at a yard sale to the store for a store credit.

    You're bragging about theft from big box retailers? Wasn't this discussed once before?
    If it was, then anyone who said it was theft, was wrong twice.

    If you are that convinced it is immoral or illegal, present your case.

    Why would it be immoral?

    Why would it be illegal?

    Dipsheet, you posted your secret identity along with your customers name and email address and telephone number, And you have the nerve to cal me out as being douchebaggy.

    I wonder how
    Pamela Roberts would react to that.

    I hope she is angry enough to send me the money she owes me for the work I did. By all means, pass it along.

    Again, I have no idea what I did to piss you off so badly.

    If I take a chance at guessing, it's the "half" stories and running around like a street pimp with a roll of money.
    The roll of mney with wa hundr4ed wrapped around a roll of one's.
    Just saying, of course.

    Half stories? A roll of ones wrapped with a 100? I'm not sure I know what you are talking about....

    Definitely don't want to add to the acrimony going on but could i offer a few suggestions ?

    I was on my own for sixteen years. Only had one bill during that time that was unpaid. (Got burned for fifty bucks so it wasn't so bad.)

    Thing 1: Remember that business is business. It's nothing personal so don't ever take anything personally.

    Thing 2: Screen your new customers carefully. Spend a little time getting to know them before you start the job. If it doesn't feel right ... pass them along to someone who would be a better fit for them.

    Thing 3: Focus on customer satisfaction. One satisfied customer will happily pay the bill and pass your name along to three of their friends. One dissatisfied customer will tell ten about how unhappy they were with the service you provided.

    Thing 4: With men .... it's all about bringing the job in on time and on budget. With women .... you gauge the success of the project by how they " feel " about it at the end of the job.

    You probably aren't going to get paid on that one. You're best bet would be to take it all in stride and treat it as a learning experience.Try not to make the same mistake again if you can help it.

    There's no profit in grudging over your losses.

    This really didn't help the issue we are currently discussing, Hills. Maybe some input on how retail really really hates people returning items?
