Wal-Mart claims recall, refuses sale

Jul 13, 2008 WALMART complaint by Gilgamesh |

I had been looking for some time for a particular collector's item. I was shocked and amazed after a year of searching targets, wal-marts and toys-r-us to find the item, misplaced but sitting on the shelf.
When I proceeded to check out, they would not sell me the item, for the following reason: recall.
Having been looking for the item for a long time, I knew the item was not a recall. Despite this fact, the computer read "SALE NOT ALLOWED" and they refused my business.
The "manager," a man by the name of Greeko, was extremely rude and told me that if it was it said it was a recall, it was a recall. I understand, that the computer would not allow the sale, meaning there would be no possible way for them to ring in such an item.
At this point however, I was simply looking for a less inane response since I obviously knew more about the product than the manager. He simply said "I would LOVE to take your money, but I can't." His dismissive attitude and condescending manner made me leave the store promptly. i will not return

A very disturbed, rude undisciplined teenager I might add.

Gilamesh, Brett is a 15 year old boy that likes to cause trouble on the site by insulting others and putting posting comments in their name.

Not sure who that other "gilgamesh" is, but I am the one who filed the original complaint and no, Brett, I am 25 years of age, no supervision needed. I did not walk away with the item as the other comment states. it was confiscated from me at the register and i never saw it again. the item was probably trashed which is a *** shame, b/c it was ultra rare and not even Wal-Mart property.

The item was not for people 18 and over Brett. Anyways even after the manager told me that the item was recalled he still left it on the shelf. Since it was not for sale I guess it was for free so I just took it and walked off with it. I guess you could say I shoplifted, but that is not the case they simply would not sell me the item and I was looking for it for months at different stores.

Perhaps he could not sell you the product because you needed a parent with you to buy it. You act like a child you will be treated like one.
