Window, fees & policy notes
No fixed return window (case-by-case on condition/proof/history); free return by mail (prepaid label or QR) or in-store; no restocking fee; carve-outs: fine jewelry in-store only, designer/special-occasion dresses need tags+unworn, car seats unopened, Watchfinder pre-owned final sale, Balsam Hill 30 days.
What you do yourself
Gotcha: The QR-code drop-off needs no printer or account — scan it at USPS/FedEx. Fine jewelry, boutique, and Balsam Hill items can't use this flow (jewelry is in-store only; Balsam Hill is 30 days, call for a label).
