Once in a while we get some young clerks or cashiers posting here. They often seem genuinely surprised that many people deeply despise a company that they apparently think is simply awesome. The problem could be one of perspective. Possibly they are genuinely unaware of the wider context of...

Here's a question: If a $30 item was on sale for $20, and it scanned at $30, what price did they train you to charge the customer? $20, or $10?

Sorry to hear about your poor treatment by Crappy Tire. Unfortunately, you were one of many Canadians who had not yet learned that Crappy Tire has the worst return policies among major Canadian retailers. And, to make matters worse, they fail to adequately notify consumer about these policies...

Count yourself lucky that you go any satisfaction at all on the first inflatable mattress. Crappy Tire sell many products with "no warranty", including inflatable items. That means Crappy Tire won't even send it out for repair, if it's defective. You are stuck with a dud - to bad, so sad. See...

When buying gifts for friends and family this season, be sure & watch out for the many items Crappy Tire sells that have "No Warranty". This means that they can't be returned if they are found to be defective, even if they are 'dead on arrival', and don't work right out of the box. No...

When buying gifts for friends and family this season, be sure & watch out of the dreaded "Repair Only Warranty" on many items Crappy Tire sells. It would be a shame to have your gift turn into a deep disappointment, if it turns out to be defective, and the store won't give a refund, or even an...

Sure, manufacturer's warranties are ok, and they are common knowledge – most people have seen those sheets that come in the box with new products. But the important thing for consumers to know about, is the “implied” warranty that the retailers are required by law to provide to consumers, in...

Links to an “Industry Canada” page with incomplete information has been used in the past as evidence that refunds (or even exchanges) are never required by any retailer. However, an Industry Canada link has recently been provided that says returns may be required in some provinces/territories...
