Well I’m sorry for assuming the worst. Good on you for refusing the refund for
The price of the fan and not passing the cost onto anyone else.
But… I have to ask:
Why did you not just pay the $6 to get $100+ refund? Principles?

There are different instructions. Sometimes it says UPS will pack and ship it for you. Sometimes not.

If you act pleasant and ask, they’ll let you tape up your box for free.

Why is it UPS Store's responsibility to provide your packing tape?

Because that is their agreement with Amazon

It's not though. Not when the instructions specifically tell you to pack it yourself. You have to read the instructions

He won’t be paying for it. Either Amazon or the UPS store will if they chuck it.

If he doesn’t have a receipt from UPS showing he dropped it off, he’s not getting a refund

This. Amazon won’t refund his money. I guess it was worth not buying $6 tape.

Way to stick it to the underpaid kid just following directions. You’re the Caesar Chavez of returning Amazon orders.

That “underpaid” kid is likely getting $20 hr for that incredibly easy job.

When you’re raging at service employees, common sense does not play a part.

Sometimes if you’re running late to AlphaCon you don’t have time to tape boxes.
