They're not universal?

Somebody sent their mom to the store for a PS3 controller and she came back with an X-Box one. So what did they do? Sent her back to exchange it without even giving her a decent lie to cover the mistake. Now it's here on the internet for everyone to make fun of. God, she was doing you a favor, you know? You DID come out of her vagina. You could have just told her to say 'wrong color'. You oughta be ashamed of yourself.

Thanks to Wilmersama, who doesn't give reasons for returning things, just a stink-eye.

    This is a fail to assume that this isn't commonplace among the Walmart employed!

  • I worked for Walmart and the receipt says everything. They work for store #4981, his/her associate numbers are 1593. on register 91 which is electronics registers.  It was the 5679th transaction on 3:29:33 pm January 14th 2012. and notice it does not have the ($)dollar sign but the (£) pound sign, So I'm guessing it's in the United kingdom. Possibly an ASDA return slip..Looks exactly like walmart's defect slips.

  • He should keep the controller and send the PS3 console back... seriously get a decent console

  • Are we just going to ignore that thumbnail?

  • Emmitt Morgans

    At first I was all like... what thumbnail?  And then I saw that THING... why and how does one cut one's fingernails that short!?  It looks so painful and sad.

    As a RMA technician, I do face this kind of facepalm-ing problem on daily basis. Some people are just too dumb to be allowed to use any electronic products. CURSE THEMMMMMMMMM!!!

  • Actually, this is really sad thing of the gaming world - manufacturers not making their equipment standard. 

  • agreed

  • Emmitt Morgans

    I'm going to guess this is from the UK (maybe Australia?) due to the date being backwards... yeah, that's right, I said it!

    EDIT: And now I see the pound symbol on the receipt... I'm an idiot.

  • No, it's the right way around. The logical way. From the smallest (day) to the largest (year).

  • So when you write the time you go: it's 23:7 pm ?

  • Yeah, yeah...that's how everybody outside America writes the time.
    *rolls eyes*

  • tea

    he meant the date like 6/15/2013 instead it would be 15/6/2013 I think i swhat he means

  • Emmitt Morgans

    Nope, it's backwards... I'm American, so I must be right!
