Re: Attention retailers!

[omorka]

While I got out of there over a decade ago, I did do my time in the retail mines for nearly two years. One night this lady tried to return an item she'd opened (a little model-kit sort of thing for a pioneer wagon, IIRC), without a receipt, which would not scan, and on which the price tag was partially missing. I told her I couldn't give her store credit if I didn't know how much she'd paid for it, much less a cash refund. She got out of my line and went to the next cashier. After going through all four of us and getting the same answer each time, she told us we were all "unprofessional" and left.

She must have spent the night going through her tax filing cabinet or something, because she came back the next day with the receipt. She had purchased the item six years prior, which, we belatedly realized, was why it wouldn't scan - it was no longer in our inventory. The head cashier finally called the manager down to figure out how to process the return; I think the manager finally explained to the customer that he could only give her store credit, since the box was opened. She called him every name in the book, but she did eventually accept that they couldn't charge the $6.59 or whatever back to her credit card after six years on an opened product. I think in the end we taped the box closed again after checking to see that all the parts were still there, and put it on the clearance rack for 49 cents, since we couldn't actually put it back into inventory.

Recently had a phone call from somebody asking us to identify an item from the UPC on the receipt, with a non-self-explantory item name. They read us the UPC, we checked it in the system, no go. We tried every variation of that UPC we could think of - drop the first digit, drop the last digit, drop both first and last digit. We were on the phone with the person for almost ten minutes before they mentioned the receipt was three years old.

And we all silently exchanged the "duh" look, while the phone-holder politely explained that we couldn't identify the item because its UPC was no longer in our system.
