They are great on returns but it is also a problem because they put the
returns back in stock. Never buy an open or resealed box. People take
advantage of the return policy and remove/lose pieces. This year I saw a
women returning her live Christmas tree on Dec 27th. I don't know if she was
successful.

Yeah, I bought a fitting to connect a sump pump to a hose, the guy
pulled out of stock (last one) and the bottom half of the threads were
covered in rust.

Obviously, used and returned.
