    Why would anyone do that? To list it on Ebay as the related Apple product or as a PS4 and when someone buys your "iphone 17" or whatever, they shit in the box or whatever and send it out?
    Like the old van selling high end speakers scam?

    I can totally back this up. I have a few shops that do online sales too and this exact thing has happened many times. Also on motorcycle toys... One of my shops has a wall of shame where they print off the best (worst) questions and it’s comedy gold.

    I think every business owner could write their own book on shit they've seen over the years. I had a customer with a wheel chair conversion minivan. They beefed up the rear stamped steel axle with some shitty placed flat iron that did nothing structurally and finally the axle broke. Company agreed to pay for the replacement and the labor untill owner's wife threatened some bogus ass lawsuit against them. Right then and there the company called us up and said don't expect the axle, we're not making one for them and they cut ties with them. That, and we're not custom making a suspension component because we are not a welding/ fab shop. So basically they kicked themselves in the ass. Oh, and I hauled it one or two more times after that to find a place that would fix it. I think they had 1000$ bill in it before any work was actually done. :D


    Oh, and to the OP! I thought you were bluffing! NOPE, there it is, fucking awesome!

    Because some people are just plain out scumbags. Camera gear boxes are also a big wanted item. For some reason photogear snobs think the camera or lens is worth MORE if theres a box.
     
  14. No, she was standing right there when we made the deal, and seemed to be enthusiastically in favor. When she soured the deal, she went ballistic - threatened to a) sue me, and b) trash my name all over town. I said, "Go for it. I'm moving to Europe." :Poke:

    Maybe it is someone's go to excuse for needing to return something. Real reason isn't "good" enough (need the money back, bike I bought it for got stolen, not able *to* steal a bike to put it on, etc.), and not enough imagination (or spelling skills) to come up with something original. The "my dog ate it" of bike part returns.

    This site is old as dirt (hasn't been updated in many years), but still funny. It is about a guy who ran a video game store and has some great stories about dealing with the public.

    Yes this is really that big of a problem! At least one return per week and one call per day.
