1 Purchasing an item with the intent of using and deriving value from it and then returning it is mamash ganavah since the value or the returned item for the storekeeper has been substantially reduced but then again, you will say that is the store’s tough luck since their return policy didn’t explicitly prohibit such returns. Some expect yidden to act morally but I suspect your were a big fan of Bernie Madoff and the others who believe it is an obligation of yidden to push the boundaries of unethical behavior.
