And what happens if they dont believe you and you are stuck with it? I doubt I will have any issues. I know management well from working in there during sales etc for sponsors.

I bought a spool of floro at bass pro. Got home expecting to spool two rods and someone used half the spool and returned it. Some people!

I've never had anything but the best customer service from Cabela's. You should be able to get a refund.

47% of society is documented to have this mentality and lack of pride.
It's sad that the moral fabric of our country is so rapidly declining....

Pretty sorry. Like others i run into this fairly often. Usually catch it, but have gotten the half spool of line on several occasions. Usually eat the cost myself because when I take it back I feel like i'm the one getting looked at.
Anyway I hope the guy registered it. That would be classic

Turrble. People are just the worst.

You would think that anything returned open would be checked upon return. Then checked before going to the Bargain Cave. Cabela's a little at fault also on a resale?

Sorry man hope you get your money back. This is why academy is gettin stricter on their returns as well. As a matter of fact there is a post in the rod and reel section complaining about a discontinued all star rod HE broke that academy didn't want to take back. I was checking out at Academy with 2 rods one day and 1 fell to the side and got stuck on the turn table with sunshades. A kid behind started spinning the table almost instantly and it snapped the end off. Academy was really nice about it and let me get a new one, but judgement is everything. I had ordered a reel and 2 crankbaits from tackelwarehouse another time and they shipped it to the wrong address because it never came to my house. I called tackle warehouse and told them. They very graciously put in a claim and told me they were sending me a new order. A few days later the original package showed up on my door from a neighbor. I could have easily kept that AND got a new reel/baits, but I called tacklewarehouse and cancelled the new order. I pray that somewhere down the line someone was watching me that day 
If you ain't first you're last.

I work for REI and return policy is a 100% satisfaction. You would not believe what people will return and complain about product. Problem is the product is worn out and they want a new one. No morals. Thats because their parents didn't beat em enough when they were kids!!! so thats why my parents whooped me all the time, I was told cause they loved me, but it was the morals being whooped into me glad i learned fast.
