I don't understand this logic.
'We don't want it anymore, so it's on clearance. But you can return it for the
40% off price and we'll give you all the money back. Then we WILL sell it
again, but at a MUCH LOWER price, but NOT TO YOU, because you don't deserve
it?'
???
Don't they realize that buying something for a large amount of money and then
selling the same thing at a much smaller price is the same as just giving the
money away?
This policy of punishing your smart customers is just bad business sense.
Besides, making you buy it again the next day gives you ANOTHER 30 days for
the price to go down even more. Just some thoughts...
