I once bought a triplet set of luggage from costco that came packed inside each other nesting doll style.
Outer bag was pristine. Upon getting it home I opened it up to find the inner two bags had various scuff marks and baggage claim tags still attached.
Fair play, previous Costco customer. But I had expected a more thorough check of the product before the store returned it to the shelf for resale. It wasn't even marked as previously returned or preowned!
- cancerhacker 3y agoFry's Electronics was the absolute worst about this. They would sometimes mark items on the shelf down if they were obviously returns, but more often than not they'd re-shrink wrap it and sell it as new. And more often than not whatever it was would be missing relevant important pieces so as to be useless. (This on top of the "we're going to search your bag on the way out of the store", which I would just glare my way out of.) I loved the idea of Fry's having what I wanted, but the actual experience was wretched.
