Sears Canada
Buyer beware! Sears no longer has a great return policy!

I've been a customer of Sears for 30 years and did most of my shopping through their catalogue. Even though their prices are often higher, they could always be counted on to accept returns when a product is not as expected. They advertise a "Satisfaction or money refunded" guarantee and have been true to their word.

But things have changed. Recently I ordered a pair of slippers for my grandmother as a gift. She let me know a week later that they didn't fit.By the time I went to see her again, pick up the slippers and return them to the store, 35 days had passed. In the meantime I ordered a larger size. The clerk told me that I could not return or exhange the slippers because more than 30 days had passed. I explained the situation but she wouldn't budge. What?!?!? When did this change occur? There was nothing wrong with the slippers and I'd ordered a replacement pair. I couldn't accept what the clerk told me and so I contacted customer service, explained the situation and they too told me I'm out of luck.

I can't believe they won't take the slippers back. Even the worst retail stores allow for exchanges! I'm very disappointed with Sears and unfortunately I will no longer shop there. They have lost a good, loyal customer because of their new policies. If you shop at Sears, make sure you realize that they no longer back their products.
