I missed that.

Unlike some other retailers, Amazon, in your #222 graphic, didn't promise to accept the return "cheerfully." They just promised to accept it. I haven't heard where they didn't accept a return. Now, after they accept it, that's when they decide if they still want you to make future purchases.

You may return most new, unopened . . .
I don't think I've ever returned an unopened item. So their actual return policy is more liberal than advertised here.

Wow. Earlier I, and I think others, said that Amazon couldn't realistically be transparent on their policy. But WalMart proves otherwise. WalMart, by having such a simple policy, forgoes the possibility of accepting more returns from customers who are, overall, highly profitable. I think Mr. Bezos loves his data too much for that
