i will admit: i have bought/returned. what i bought though are formal dresses from Dillards or Macy's for formal school dances. I've never had the money to outright pay $200 for a dress, so i'll wear it and return it. I always use Oust air disinfectant spray on the dresses though--- i wouldn't want someone buying a dress that smelled like someone had already worn it out dancing.

also, the dresses are cheaply made-- honestly, every dress i've "borrowed" (as some of you put it) has come with a ripped seam or a pull in the fabric or an unravelling hem or something--so i don't feel bad about returning them, and i don't think Dillards will take it to heart, considering their dresses are all cut-and-paste stereotypical formal-wear. if it were designer, on the other hand, i wouldn't return. it's a quality product that shouldn't be taken advantage of.
