When I return anything I just take it to the local UPS store and they put all of the paperwork in a sleeve/pouch that they tape to the outside of the package.

I used the Postal service the 1 time I returned something,and there was a  customs form,and there was something I was supposed to say so duty wouldn't be charged,but don't know anything about an invoice.

UPS is the quickest,but USPS is less expensive. Not sure if timing is important. Clerk at local P.O. made sure I filled out everything correctly as well.

saying i am returning goods or sending as a to avoid customs fees for the recipients seems to work out well when i’m sending items abroad

[Matty123]

@madmonday  lives! Well it’s an IH exchange so I know if I don’t include an invoice slip, it won’t
Clear customs. This happened a few weeks back and I had to email ups  copy. Trying to
Avoid that this time.

Go to the UPS office or wait for the driver to turn up. They/he will tell you where to stick it  :)…

[Matty123]

yeah then I go to the clink for assault and battery.

Or depending on the size of the package and your constitution… the ER

I could have sworn there was an option on customs slips specific to the return of an item.  Could be imagining things.  I think I've had to return 1-2 things to a foreign retailer in all my days.

What came of the "new" old packaging? You know, the paper (??) bags that are sewn shut? I thought the machine was finally fixed?

Blue bag special for my last 4 or 5 orders, lol

No big deal to me, I was just curious.

[Matty123]

^^ me too. Blue bags are great but I was wondering the same thing.

WhT is the best stove you can buy?

Wolf? Thermador? Bosch? Viking?

Culinary pros, let me know your thoughts

Don't know about "best," but Wolf makes a terrific range of… Ranges. And ovens. Speaking from experience using them and with no comparative expreience on the others here.

They feel commercial grade, where Viking was always targeted at the high-end home.

Surprisingly, one of the most reliable appliances we've bought is a Bertazzoni range.  I picked up our dual fuel 30" range for less than half of retail from these guys:

It had damage on both sides but once we installed it, you'd never have any clue that it wasn't perfect which is most of the reason we were able to get it for such a great price.

Otherwise, I know Wolf is great but you definitely pay for it.  Blue Star ranges are supposed to be incredibly well built and great performers but they're not cheap either.

Never had a Viking, but it's surprisingly pleasant to go to Greenwood, Mississippi and tour their factory.  If you do a custom order, they'll put your picture on the unit and send you photos as it proceeds through assembly.  If I remember correctly, everyone who works on it signs the back, which is kinda cool.

They also have a hotel, restaurant, and cooking school in town.  Didn't go to the cooking school, but the hotel and restaurant are excellent.  Or at least they were ten years ago…

Damn, I'm old.

I'm friends with the Carls, a good family. Though I haven't had the pleasure, it doesn't surprise me that the factory visit is a nice experience.
