They've somewhat relaxed nowadays, as opposed to 4-5 months ago, whereby they were quite strict with returns and assessments.

I am guessing he meant pickup.

Is it cool to buy something in store and schedule a return via pickup? Or would I have to go back in to the store in person for the return unless I order online?

Not according to their returns policy... I am assuming the last column relates to arranging a collection from your home.

If you buy in store you have to return in store but if you get it delivered you can return in store, but in store tend to check allot more I returned a sealed shaver before they opened it up. I had a shocked face so they refunded me but was well close

I had issues with legit in-store returns with them years back because I used the stuff. Just went to another store and that usually worked. Some people give way too much of a shit about their shitty jobs. lol

I am assuming you SB'd the shaver ? Can you tell me the exact model, i want to have a look at what the packaging / seal is like. Oh and please.... walk us through the interaction, it sounds almost traumatic lol

Yeah 90% of my SE’s were doing what ever I thought would work usually would, and getting them to pick it up

What do you think about getting a replacement, swapping that, then getting a refund by swapping the first new watch for the second? So if they block the one I replaced it would block the second one I returned.
