I know of at least 2 people who told they bought oil and found used oil in the Rotella jug, used K&N air filter in the box. Then they had to go back and convince WM they were not pulling a fast one.

WM will take anything back and if the counter person does not look at it, they put it back on the shelf. So I would be checking very closely to be sure you are not getting screwed. Some of the con men are really good at making used things look new to get a refund. I was burnt on some sensors for a carbon monoxide detect. The sensor battery was dead and would not work. So I returned it and the lady did some checking and that sensor was over 5 yrs old and the package had been tampered with and glued shut.
I got burned on an oil filter for my Harley. The one I use is chrome plated and costs about 10 bucks. People pull the chrome filter and put it in a plain $4 filter box and put the cheap filter back in the chrome filter box. It pretty much sucks when the wife is out in the car and you've dropped the oil and filter on the bike and find you have the wrong replacement with no transportation to a store.
