So I hear there is this city out west where douchebagery and eliteism run rampant, and the climbers are as deep as cockroaches in one of those hoarder shows on TV. Where do I sign up for that shit brah? Epi, yeah I guess easy. Just a little clip up...

haha FINALLY! You guys are slacking. It took 4 pages to associate an REI thread with Boulder.

Out here in the West, we don't have money for an education. We buy big, hopped up trucks instead.

This thread is some good billy. Keep up the good werk, interwebz!

Truckee Trustafarians are at least in a good, higher education free city, Burch3y.

Too bad they don't give a BA for hang dogging on monkey paws 68 times a month so you can say you climb 5.12

Wonder what the OP thinks about Rock n Resole? Maybe send those shoes back after a year for a free resole.

Okay, being climbers, we should have a better-than-average sense of what gear tolerates and doesn't tolerate. Some may call this the sniff test, others may call it common sense.

Buying a $35...or even a $60 pack...to climb with or haul in a long, tough chimney climb doesn't come close to passing the sniff test.

Big picture, returning abused gear, pushing the envelope on returns, even corporate taxation, it may help the individual customer/user, but in the end we all pay, because businesses all pass the costs on to the customers/us. They have to, otherwise they won't survive.

So, such practices hurt the rest of us in the end. Please don't abuse return policies.

Nope, they don't hurt me at all. I would like to end this by encouraging everyone to return everything they own to REI, it's their fucking cosmic Karma. There used to be outdoor shops, REI is a miniscule step above Wall-mart. They helped to ruin the industry, now we should help to ruin them.

Where oh where is Michelle now?
