shane Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 Nobody's perfect. It's all about balance. / I think I saw this on the Simpsons.
Chris Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 No store has ever contacted me after they have overcharged me. I do not contact stores that have undercharged me. Sure, if I were to spend the time to go back to the store, put gas in the car to get there, etc., etc., they might give me my money back....if I could prove that they overcharged me. And I would be glad to give them their money back.....if they call me back and can prove that they undercharged me. I think the stores karma and my karma have pretty much balanced out over the years.
bramptonjerry Posted March 5, 2008 Author Report Posted March 5, 2008 ooooo ChrisS has a compelling argument
Stoty Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 Agreed...... I don't recall the grocery store contacting me over double charging me for a $7 block of cheese!! But like I said, hopefully I have the same "bad store karma" that Jerry had this weekend at BPS. Hopefully they fail to charge me fore the GPS I am going to buy!
Kirk Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 Joe...no problem... here's a compromise...call the store and tell them to send someone with a receipt to collect payment for a jacket or whatever gizmo they forgot to ring in while you were standing in line cash in hand, it would be at my home or office at my convenience and they'd send their employee to collect their money and give me a receipt...doubt too many stores would follow up on my offer...depending on the item...wouldn't be worth the employee's time, hourly whatever plus mileage. I wouldn't return for the same reason. Going back with cash in hand, A SECOND TIME, basically values your time as 0.00 and the gas and wear and tear on your car, not worth it but they can spend the time and effort. Even when I return a defective item for a refund or exchange...I spend 10.00 get 10.00 back...my time is wasted in the translation and ends up valued as $0.00, which is poor customer service even in the 'best' stores for exchange and refunds, never mind Lebarons which has a unique journey through the gauntlets of hell before they part possession with a dime by refund.
