I've never returned anything to LL Bean because their products have never failed me.

That leaves Refunds & Exchanges Incorporated as the place to bring your boots to when they fail after a ten year trek in the Himalayas. I watched one guy exchanging an incredible pile of junk for cash as he tried to work up the price of a fix.

I heard about that. It's not one extreme to the other, because a year is a year, but it seems they could have tightened the rules a lot less.

That's what I mean.

New management?

Abuse. Too many people taking unfair advantage. Many other stores have tightened the rules in recent years for the same reason.

I know folks who more than take advantage of such policies (such as buying something at a garage sale and returning it to the store for credit--and worse). Their sense of "entitlement" escapes me... Go L.L. Bean.
