The $64,000 question.

Its not Wales (which is just as well considering the number of Welsh posters on here!)

That reminds me I'll have to order a new batch of cards I'm running low

evening guys, how are your local stores shaping up for stickered DS games lately?

Mine seem to have gone nearly all cheaper games 2 for £30 and removed all of the stickers that were stuck to the games which were nearly always wrong

The dictionary definitition is fraudulent, swindle....If the dictionary says that....who are you to offer your own definition....It doesnt really matter what anyone thinks....its the true definition that matters..........

I think we have been around this loop before.

Scam or Scamming is slang, therefore there is no one or official definition.
So there is no true definiton.
Many slang words have different meanings in different regions, these differnt meanings can be even greater between different English speaking countries.

e.g. Go to the US and ask a barman for a Fag !

I would love to think that you are based at one of the the two stores that I can't seem to even sniff an r&r.

Although for some reason they seem to move managers after about six months (well that is certainly the case at my local store.

Its damage limitation. If you have not been in a role for more than 6 months, you can not be held accountable for anything

I'm sure I said that in my first reply...I certainly said it on the ethics thread where I requested it went.

Do I hear any type of apology.....

an apology for what ?

My original response to your £600 post (not that you were telling everyone how much your total R&R was for the day ;-) was:

It could well be seen as fraud.
I did not say it was fraud.

I would do most things, but I would not do what you have done.
I stand by this statement because I still could not do what you have done.
You did do it that was your choice,

I keep getting sucKered into these replies, even after lots of attempts to get this over to the ethics thread......I'll have to watch it, i feel I'm becoming the troll.

There are worse places to be than under a bridge when it is pouring down with rain !

I understand, but personally I could not do it.

It just does not seem right trying to claim money back for something I had spent no money on.

Never realised that people might try and claim a second R&R with the same receipt when they have already received one. I suppose that is where a criminals, criminal mind sets in.

You've still got it wrong

I didnt take them back for a second RandR.........I took them back for a refund only.

As for the next bit.....is this a wind-up!!!

As of today I am more glad than ever Tescos is getting hit by R&R's. They deserve it. Their signs really are misleading and worse than other super markets.

For example, today in Sainsburys I saw a sign reading
"2 for £2.50 on selected salads*.
*Salads on offer marked on pack"
And sure enough, selected salads has a 2 for £2.50 SEL AND Sticker.

The Tesco equivalent is:
"Sensations 3 for £3".
Some flavours on the shelf will have a yellow SEL with 3 for £3. Few flavours, selling at the same price, will not have a yellow SEL and not scan under the offer. Hundreds end up paying full price on all 3 packs.
This results in a shi**y battle with CS who give you "but those are not included in the offer anyway. No overcharge."

And it gets worse. They remove the SEL and do not replace it so they carry on overcharging for the length of the promotion. Even a few people who may have noticed that a few items which would logically be under offer, but not buy as the individual SELs conflict would get scammed after the first R&R.
