Since when are iPhones under $300?
How do you know it was RP and not a dispute?

Yes
It was for an iPhone and the customer did not want it any more and I said no returns...
And the customer filed a return protection claim with amex, or a dispute? Verify that.

Sounds like someone made a mistake here.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I probably can still look up the claim.

When i asked what happened he told me he used the return protection.
For what ever reson amex felt i should have taken back the device.

I've heard of a rp case where amex did a chargeback. The store owner was furious. After investigating, the store owner agreed they ignored messages from amex trying to verify the stores return policy. After getting no response from the store they did a chargeback...

That's absurd. You could probably take amex to court over that (although I'm not familiar with the merchant agreements, which probably preclude that).

I don't know why you think you know her costs/margins.

That's a fair margin for high end clothing like $55 t shirts and $160 shirts.
Note I didn't say net margins.

There are many factors that go into cost and profit, but either way, it's very possible that her rate of returns was simply unacceptable and this was necessary, but she didn't want to make a strict policy for customers with a low return rate.

But that's exactly what she did, dude.
I don't return much and she made a strict policy against me.

She profiled you.  Life isn't always fair.

She's not a Navi; she's using demographic generalizations. She doesn't know every customer's return habits, but she (thinks she) knows trends.

Certainly anyone's prerogative. I'm just arguing not to be angry at her, she's just trying to maximize profit; she doesn't hate anyone.

If you think the discussion is so silly, DON'T READ IT! 😜 ;)

I'm on your side. You must be tired and not reading well. Go to sleep.

Good night. (The last line in my post was a joke, the smiley face was tired and didn't show up.)

Good morning Charlie, no one is discussing whether we will shop there or not. We were debating whether these policies make any sense for her business. Get some rest.

She profiled you.  Life isn't always fair.

She's not a Navi; she's using demographic generalizations. She doesn't know every customer's return habits, but she (thinks she) knows trends.

Again you're missing the boat. Shes not a navi but she's not savvy either. She's embarrassing the majority of her potential customers to cater to others. As they say, penny wise, pound foolish. It's a terrible way to run an online business and she lost all her integrity. To understand it better- If Kaepernick had an online store, it would be called Shan and Toad. Aka the right to be foolish.

Some other points-the amount of vile words directed at our community due to that return policy is endless. And she still didn't take it down. I also noticed that for a refund. all returns must be in brand new condition with tags, so these accusations based on her supposed experiences of receiving used goods are obviously imaginary. She's simply treating people outside the main religious communities much better by providing cash instead of credit for brand new returns.

And lastly, she might be breaking some racial discrimation laws- geographic discrimination is illegal if it's simply a proxy to discriminate against a certain ethnicity/race.

Most people think im just one person returning something to an online company out of many many returns. I work for an eCommerce company for almost 7 years and the black guys in the warehouse/returns all know what lakewood,brooklyn,monsey is
i work in the city.
Manhattan lol
I'd imagine there is cheaper warehouse space available elsewhere?
