    I bought my first Dyson ball in 2007 from Bed, Bath, and Beyond. Paid around $450. I returned that model because I wanted the Animal model. I returned it in 2009. I returned that Ball Animal model in 2011 because I had a teenager vacuum up MILK which soured and funked up the every filter in the vacuum. I got a new Animal model DC25 then. Today, I returned that Animal Model because my wife did something and it stop sucking. Since we change floors to non-carpet, I got the DC59 digital slim cordless Animal.

    I paid $0.00....in fact...on the $499 vacuum...I ended up with a $40 credit after 20% coupon.

    So since that initial investment of of $475 in 2007, I've paid a total of $8.66 out of pocket on 3 more Dyson vacuums (only one of which was actually broken).

    Technically, all were still under manufacturers' warranty. So BB&B could just return them for whatever credit they get.

    Bed, Bath, & Beyond is the BEST place to shop if they carry what you need. Their returned policy is the BEST. :eek:;)

    So, you are returning vacuum cleaners that for the most part are working and claiming they aren't working in order to not pay for a new vacuum?

    I don't know how people go through more than three or four vacuum cleaners over maybe a decade; or how a teenager could think to vacuum up milk or any other liquid.

    Sounds like you are a deceptive, manipulative jerk and are proud of it.

    We got all kinds here (unfortunately).

    I guess from your perspective it seems that way.

    BB&B has a very favorable return policy, yes.

    Many retail stores err on the side of being too generous with returns/exchanges, but none more so than BB&B.

    Bragging about Bed, Bath, and Beyond shopping skills on an internet basketball BBS while March Madness games are ongoing... this is by far the saddest thing i've ever seen.

    Dyson vacuums are not very good. Bought one on sale and it's average at best.
