  So you’re saying it’s relatively cheap for the privilege of being in an abusive relationship?

    Abusive is a perfect description. Exploitative too. I’ve always viewed store credit as a sucky refund policy. Offline. Whenever I discovered these, usually because I needed to return something, these shops lost my business.

    And the above is not even the same situation when you really look at it. This person didn’t want to return something. They made a purchase they wanted to keep. Then Amazon just said, “oh, we’re repossessing that media and keeping your money. Feel free to use this store credit on something else for which we can repeat this scenario all over again at will. Have a great day!”

      Putting aside why the system is setup that someone’s digital purchase can even be revoked at all which is another topic all together; Every refund I’ve ever gotten from Amazon came in the form of whatever I used to pay for it. So it’s possible that OP bought the movie originally with Amazon Credit and therefore was refunded Amazon Credit.

  I did miss the refund? It’s just an in-store credit
