im actually chatting with them right now, and he said i can return it via mail because its an online order. he said returning in store is up to
the managers discretion.
does this seem accurate ?

No. I haven't heard that Walmart takes online orders back via mail. Even if they did why would you want to ship a bike back. The usual MO is that they tell you to return it in store. The problem is that stores are refusing ANY return because of CoVid... At some point that will change but how long you wanna gamble on that. Wife bought a bike that was on clearance for $50 and the front forks are bent. Walmart refuses a refund but said to hole onto the receipt for a later date. Wonder if it will be rectified this summer or not... Basically a $50 lesson on where to spend our money.

he actually said if there is any issues with the bike after assembly, he can set up their courier to come pick it up for the free return, that was my concern if after i assemble it, and find any issues with it that iT can be returned, i asked numerous times to be sure .

Atleast Amazon is taking returns.....fk off Walmart

They are using Covid as an EXCUSE to not process returns ...
Even if an item is defective

This from a Co that made MILLIONS / BILLIONS of dollars while Covid raged
And in some instances were the only choice ... folks could buy stuff from
(Nothing else open)

Yep, "imagine what Walmart would do if they had a monopoly?" Well folks, we just learned what they would do--axe returns and not give a shit because you're gonna go there anyway

I'm considering not shopping there any more TBH but this is a decision better made once everything is "back to normal" it seems. Still it doesn't really bother me since I return something so rarely; but it's the principle involved here. The more you spend at Walmart, the more competitors they kill off. Once they kill them off, even outside of covid, this is the kind of douchebaggery they will engage in. In this case the lame "stay at home" nonsense handed them a temporary monopoly on a silver platter, and this is what they did pretty much immediately.

I am not surprised
If you do your research Walmart can be a VERY GREEDY Corp
They like “to pretend” they are all about the little guy
But they are not
They’ll screw their Customers, Suppliers & Employees whenever they can
Remember this, and how little they care if you got taken during Covid
(Worse time ever to get screwed, in the middle of a pandemic with so much hardship & sacrifice by SO MANY)
Meanwhile ... THE FEW ... The Mega Billionaires top 1% ... TPTB @ Walmart were counting their own PERSONAL BILLIONS they made off of the those with the most to lose

Interestingly Walmart is so huge it has become like a mini-nation inside its corporate workings. There's actually a movement of people not exactly "against" Walmart because they have bought shares--they've bought into the company and go to shareholder meetings to make a stink about stuff, almost like people protesting government actions/inactions. They're a very small minority but they've gained a lot of momentum over time. In the US, sometimes you'll find them in the parking lots of Walmarts getting people to sign up for their electronic newsletter and "join the cause" against Walmart...by joining Walmart and fighting them internally. In the early days I think it was called "Wake up Walmart" but they changed the name now IIRC.

Peice of shit goofs, i hope this riot raids every walmart and they get ripped off for all the broken defective shit they are selling and not willing to replace a week later the purchase with the receipt, as if they didn't already make a fortune off this pandemic now their selling people broken shit and saying they wont do anything, they'll be lucky if they dont end up like target in Minneapolis

any luck recently?
If they don't allow returns - can you do a charge back?

Anyone have any luck with credit card charge backs?

Yep it works. You have to be persistant too

So if you open an electronics item, you can't return it, even with a receipt?
