I could not agree more. I know people who can afford REI (DINKs) and despite that feel they had the “right” to try and then return items.

Yes, some of this was built in to the price but not to the extent people stretched it.

Nordstroms, I guess when it was not a middling retailer, had similar policies.

But people have lost their moral bearings and it’s all about them, like there is no tomorrow.

It’s little different than looting. Looters sometimes loot immediately needed goods, but often it’s jewelry, TVs, electronics and sneakers. These chronic abusers of return policies are in the same moral category.

Very few people give a shit and care about themselves or society. It’s all a free-for-all, with few exceptions.
