Limiting Return Privilege in Dry Goods Trade
Washington reports the Commercial Economy Board of the Council of National Defence recommends studying the elimination or restriction of the return goods privilege in retail dry goods. Merchants deem the system costly, noting returns reach 4 to 30 percent of sales and detailing a total annual extra expense near $50 per store due to handling, packing, and delivery costs.
