REI="Return Every Item" is no more

[old goat]

Uh, guys. I'm pretty sure we've seen the last of casual hiker.

[stuckathuntermtn]

TGR is casual nothing!
Hike like you mean it, pussy!

Was that Hugh trolling tgr from the grave?

What is not understood about purchasing skis and bindings separately, if most skis are sold flat? The bindings didn't come with the skis, so getting both is two separate purchases. However, since REI had to mount the bindings, the two purchases are attached together. Both were purchased from REI, so is it expected to detach the bindings from the skis beforehand if you return them?

Once you mount bindings to skis they become a single thing, so when you return them you have to pick if you are returning the skis or returning the bindings. Usually it makes sense to return them as skis, but you may have paid more for your bindings if you got the skis on a good deal, so check your receipt before you go in.

DO NOT pull them apart or you void the warranties and they won't take either of them back.

This is not true. Remove the bindings, return the left ski with the right binding on the correct day (see above), and then return the right ski with the left binding the next day.

Don't call ahead to ask. They hate JONGS like you and if you do they will probably refuse the entire transaction, cancel your membership, and use your dividend to fund the next company bbq.

^^ I wonder if they aren't skiing well because they put the bindings on the wrong skis when they mounted it? REI is famous for messing that up.

I'm kinda still stuck on how it's 2 separate purchases if it's on one receipt.

Well yeah, in REI's defense that is a pretty common mistake. When you replace them Casualhiker, definitely get the red ones. They are always faster and the snow melts off the topsheet quicker. This is super important! Your legs won't get tired on the lift carrying all that extra weight. Pro tip right there.

Dude! Stop giving away the TGR secretz to teh no0bz!

If they are twin tips it doesn't matter which direction the bindings face. If fact, it is super cool to know you are skiing switch (to the road) while actually facing downhill. REI was just trying to help him out.

I have not called them yet. They are Salomon QST 92 Lux Skis with Marker Griffin 13 ID. Ordered the skis online and got the bindings in-store based on their recommendations. I just wanted to see if you guys had any past experiences with this situation.

all signs point to no

[Garth Bimble]

I have to give casualhiker credit. He (or she?) is persistent.

What about them "did not suit you" after you skied an entire season on them ?

Edit: "Q92 Lux", those are girls skis. We need naked pics of your titties in order to properly evaluate if REI ripped you off or not.

[ill-advised strategy]

That's a gold medal in trolling right there folks.
bravo, whoever you are.

If that's a troll it's one of the more boring trolls of all time. It would have to be someone with way too much time on their hands. Do they allow laptops in prison?

No, but the mall food court has pretty good wifi.

Womens or mens?

[stuckathuntermtn]

I bet some at Alpine Zone has experienced this exact situation.

[AK47bp]

Ahh. The art of the subtle troll.

Is it a troll or Is it not?

[old goat]

Could be some 400 pound guy lying in his bed.
Not that there's anything wrong with that

Well, trolls can't be obvious any more, at least not around here, but old goat's post got me to thinking - is purposely being really boring and wrong a good way to launch a successful troll?

Very, very subtle.
