Yea, it's petty, but if enough people started doing it I guarantee you it would
attract the attention of the retailers, and maybe they might put some pressure
on LEGO.

So, what do you think?

I think that's extraordinarily lame and petty and won't accomplish what you
think it will.  The clerks likely won't care why you're returning the sets,
they'll either repackage them and sell them as scratch'n'dent, or they'll make
their way back to Enfield where they're turned into those big vats of giveaway
bricks.  Harassing the middleman is no way to get your point across.
