Roots return policy is not sustainable for anyone not located near a Roots store. In order to receive the full amount of refund, you must accept a gift card that will not appear until a week or two after the returned item is received and processed by the company. In any kind of gifting situation this is far less than ideal as unless you’re going to continue to shop at this store in the future you will need to wait for your gift card to purchase the replacement item meanwhile they have your money and you no longer possess the item you purchased. In my case, despite trying to change to a reimbursement excluding a fee they were unable to change the method of repayment. I finally believed I caught the item before it went out of stock, but after my order was accepted I received notice that it was out of stock and due to there being a sale at that time, only the item ai wanted was removed and not the other items to use up the remaining gift card total. The sale ended and later in the week a few of the item I sought was back in stock. I tried to reach out via email and did not receive a response. I called the customer service number and unfortunately the only solution they could provide was to purchase the item for full price and be reimbursed the difference from the sale price in a gift card. I was so frustrated I just accepted the offer and passed on the gift card with the difference to someone else. The product is great, but managing a return was truly impossible for someone who could not go to a physical location. It doesn’t make any sense they can hold on to your money for so long with zero product or gift card in your possession. It just seems wrong.
