[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 438040, member: 2960"] Which has already passed. The return period is only 14 calendar days (two weeks) Advocating this kind of behavior probably won't serve you too well. Loud and demanding customers don't put retail workers in defensive mode, they merely tick them off. You are more likely to start trouble and an argument by stomping your foot and throwing a tantrum by "talking loudly"... not to mention disrupting the other patrons. In my store (when I worked retail) I would sooner eject the person from the store empty-handed if they acted that way. Retail employees are people, too. They are simply doing their job and talking loudly at them in an effort to manipulate them is nothing more than bullying and poor personal conduct. If you want further action taken, then target the company, not the store employees. Call the BBB and have it handled properly and professionally. Also, keep in mind that BTO systems are not returnable. The 10% restock fee may be negotiable (depending on the store and the manager), but the reasoning of "not as advertised" won't likely cut it. In the end, the best course of action is to remain cordial at all times. Don't raise your voice and speak politely. You are more likely to get a break if you are calm, cool, and collected than loud and boisterous. [/QUOTE]
