Walmart was the first company to pioneer the 100% "Consignment" idea. Walmart owns nothing in their stores until it crosses the scanner at checkout. And only for that split second do they own it. Their major benefit is the reduced inventory holding costs that go with that.
So, for returns, they don't care much because it jsut goes back into their vendors inventory.

And Destry, I'm afraid I am quite a bit younger. But feel older every day.
