Almost every Vivitar digital camera we sold would come back so I stopped selling them when possible. I would try to talk them up $20 to the Kodak, not because I was a good salesman but because camera returns were a pain in the ass that interrupted one of our photo lab employees.. and if there\'s anything I hate, it\'s being understaffed. Even for 15 minutes. (MORE understaffed, that is. Wal-Mart is always understaffed.)
