'Where there is a will, there is a way': Customer complies with company's demands to return faulty product after they refuse to reimburse him, leading to company losing hundreds

It's nearly impossible to stay up to date with technology. The rate at which the world changes is almost unfathomable. However, what happens if you deliberately select outdated technology to guarantee a smooth transition, only to be left with a dysfunctional device?

The story that follows tells the account of a son who purchases a flip phone for his elderly father. OP chooses an easy-to-manage cellphone for his father, who can no longer keep up with the rapid advancements in technology. However, after receiving the phone, OP finds out that the product he purchased is defective, so he storms into the convenience store and demands his money back. Reluctantly admitting to having sold a defective product, the sales associates decline to cover the cost of the purchase and insist that OP ship the item via the mail and bear the accompanying charges.

As you may have guessed by now, OP was not happy with the way the situation was handled and devised a crafty scheme to exact revenge on the cell company. That being said, if you're interested in learning more about what occurred between OP and the cell company as well as how OP got even, read the story below! When you're finished, don't forget to read the story about the web developer who leaves the company high and dry after management shuts down his concerns!
