I didn't say that you couldn't get some kind of return, just that having a "no returns without receipt" policy is normal. In this case, he wasn't dealing with this particular policy, but with the 30-day one. And you'll notice that they offered him a return by store credit (consistent with the customer service approach you describe). He's just pissed because after five weeks he wants *cash* back, and they won't give it to him. You do what you can to try to please the customer, but eventually you have to start drawing lines. Their approach in this situation was reasonable and accomodating -- the fact that he's got something up his butt that makes him ornery isn't their fault.
