I need some help/advice on a specific issue involving retail returns.
If someone were to purchase an item from a thrift store, lets say for example a clothing garment, that was brand new and still had all of the original price tags intact from the original retail department store. And if ithey were to then take that garment that they had purchased at the thrift store, back to the original department store and return it successfully for its original retial price, is that illegal? Im aware that it is immoral, but Just out of curiousity, is it considered some type of return fraud? and would it be grounds for some form of criminal prosecution?
