that's ridiculous. Why don't people just get costumes that they can afford to keep
I don't think affording them is the issue.
I just found a new supply of forks!

My daughter ordered a costume on Amazon last week and we weren’t thrilled with the tznius so she wore something else and I printed return labels. I was busy and didn’t get to drop it off before Purim and wondering if i drop it off by UPS now it will look like I took advantage to use it on Purim...
Oh please. That’s what their policy is for. Post-Purim returns is nothing compared to post Halloween/Christmas/New Year’s returns, & they give extra time to return during that season.

I hope this was directed at my type. It would be doubling disgusting for a Jew to take advantage of these Holidays.

You realize I’m referring to where it wasn’t used, right ?
Amazon has a much bigger return window during holiday season.

Actually as usual I am confused. Are you saying post-Purim returns are more or less than those other days?

I’m saying that if he didn’t use it he shouldn’t feel guilty returning it after purim. Amazon has a return policy & he's not abusing it. Agree ?

What is the point of this thread? Silly conjecture.

I sure hope people will do what I do and give unwanted used items to a gmach/goodwill.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Wasn't there a thread about a kids clothing store that wanted to ban certain zip codes because of this type of scam? @TimT
IIRC that thread was about a store which did it for unused returns because of the dynamics of how it affected their specific business model. FWIU all of the rumors of larger companies doing that have all been shown to be anti Semitic lies.

goodwill.
Wait, isnt that where you're supposed to get them from in the first place. So you're confirming that you also return them.  ;D ;D

I donate my dress shirts to Goodwill. They clean them and press them. I go back the next day and buy them for .50-1.00
Can't beat that deal.

I guess we are talking about two different threads then.
