You are returning something at a market up that was not sold in that store. If Wal Mart does sell the 'Duke' they won't make anything on it as it was sold at the returned value, not the marked up value for anything they put on their shelves. Don't try and fool yourself into thinking you are helping anyone other then yourself when you do this.

I won't lie, I have returned toys without a receipt to Wal Mart. I mean come on.. if kids get alot of things for birthday or Christmas and no one provides a receipt with the gift and they get DOUBLES of things.... What the hell are we supposed to do?? Just sit on them?? My daughter got doubles of things for her birthday last month and we returned them for gift cards. I mean come on... if Grandma got you some crazy ass TIE for Chrsitmas and it still had a Wal Mart tag and no receipt... YOUR DAMN RIGHT I am exchanging that puppy for a gift card!!!

And people wonder why prices of Joes keep going up. Theft, repackers & returners are the real cause of this.

here come the nagging patrol to this thread wit their carma crap, and those titles that everyone loves so much like " returners". the stuff is still factory sealed, for all we know his returns could help someone with them hard ta find old 25th cards. it aint stealing if the stores get paid and a customer gets what they paid for with nothing missing or changed. step off your high and mighty podiums for a sec and find some other more important crap to stick yur goodie goodie noses in.
Maybe the person you "helped" finally find those old 25th cards by returning it could have gotten a long time ago if you hadn't bought it up thinking you were going to sell them on here or on eBay and make a profit. And, returning items to a store you didn't buy them from, IS stealing. Back to my original question, why buy something you don't need? If you bought something with the intent to help out a fellow collector and they already got it, by all means, return it. If you got multiples for birthday or Christmas, return it. But don't buy up a bunch of "hot" items thinking you're going to turn a profit, and then end up with a bunch of stuff you don't need and have to return it when nobody bites. This "out for #1 entitlement" attitude is not only what's wrong with this hobby, but what's wrong with this country.

What does returning Joes to Wal Mart have anything to do with high prices of Joes??? Does it cost that much for an employee to take the figure back to the pegs???? I could understand returning STOLEN Joes to Wally for store credit but nothing other than that.
I guess if they start tacking on a 15% restocking fee... we may stop doing this UNGODLY ACT!!! |

I wouldn't return them, unless you got other toys you want to get. They won't refund without receipt. What they'll do is add up all the figures' cost and tell you to go toy section ONLY and get whatever that almost equal to the amount they owe you. Just the toy section AND NO GIFT CARD. Just hold on to them or use them for customization, I know it sucks to be stuck with something you're not too happy about but taking it back to walmart won't make anything better unless they have something (Just the toys) worth getting that you really want.

You don't tend to see re-packing and false returns with those like you do with Joes.

So that's why they took my drivers license when I took back my [un]Wanted DVD. Man, thieves and crooks are really ruining things for us guys that just don't want lame curving bullet movies.

I'm a huge "returner", for example today those UBP's just went to 38.97 clearance at target, did I have my 62.99 receipts handy just to get the difference? You GD right I did. Also i I order a case of figures from anywhere and there happens to be an undesirable in there, Do I return it to Walmart or Target for store credit? Absolutely! And don't get superior with "Karma" on me when I find shat for people all the time and sell it to them for cost. There is nothing wrong with my Karma. I happen to think scalping on EBAY is a shitty thing but I don't think it affects one's "Karma".
