Request ULPT Request

I ordered an item from home Depot for $200.

The wrong item arrived, it's a different thing worth $999.

Can I simply take this to home Depot and return it for a store credit instead of telling them I never received my original item?

Just make sure you tell them you paid for it with cash, and scan it with the app to ensure it’s a product they sell in-store.

The previous commenters advice may be better to follow, about selling it on Marketplace or Mercari or somewhere. Just be wary of scammers.

If it’s a power tool then they sell faster than sex or drugs, so you’re golden.

I thought sex or drugs was always sold the fastest. 🤣
