Honestly, when I read this, the thought entered my mind that the Hebron, KY warehouse is just accepting the returns, repacking them, and sending those same units back out to others as their "replacements". If they're so low on stock to have delivery dates for new orders take 4-6 weeks, I wondered how they have enough stock available to send out replacements so quickly.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that had that thought.
