Registry question- Which had a better return policy?

Hey all you moms. Sorry to post on your board- but I figure you guys are the experts. I am debating between registering at BBB and BRU. I heard BRU has a better return policy and BBB is a bunch of hard azzes. Then I heard it was the opposite. What do you recommend?

TIA!!!!!

WE registered at both because one store had our bedding and the other had the style of stroller we wanted, etc. I had absolutely no rpoblems returning to either store, especially after we got 3 car seats and had to return 2. No questions asked, they took them back and gave us store credit.

I found both to be good. If something is purchased there off your registry then its generally no problem in either place. But I found the BRU was better about taking back stuff even if you dont know if it was purchased there. As long as they carry it, I have found they will take it back. HTH

I used BRU... and when people gave me gifts that I didn't want, and were from different stores, BRU would give me store credit as long as they carried the product...

Re: Registry question- Which had a better return policy?

I was registred at BBB and I NEVER had a problem! I actually love BBB better then BRU because of there inventory. They have soooo much stock in everything!! My girlfriend was registred at BRU and she was very upset about the amount of stock they carry in their carseats and strollers and other things, then I took her to BBB and she was amazed by how much of a selection she could make in each department, ( strollers, carseats, highchairs etc...) I feel their website is much better too! JMO Chat Icon

Babies R Us because they have more brands - so they take back anything they sell (even if someone bought it somewhere else). My sister has returned a swing that she had out of the box, but her son never used. She saved the box, explained it to them & they took it back.

Buy Buy Baby has exclusives on many patterns and has a more limited selection. They've turned down taking Advent Bottles (that they do sell) - it was an 4 pack with a bottle scrubber - but they didn't sell that particular combo.

IMO, Sales people are more knowledgable at BBB.

I registered at both. Never had a problem returning items.

Baby Depot supposedly has a HORRIBLE return policy.

Macy's is pretty tricky also. You better have a receipt or they will give you the lowest price for the return.
