Hello all. I am traveling up to Austin and was seeing what shops were available with the companies for which I have a contractor agreement. Anyway I noticed one company had over 700 shops available around Austin! Some of these shops are described as Apparel E-Commerce Returns. So it looks like you buy on-line. The return says "Return Method Mail In or Third Party Retailer." I don't live in Austin, I live in the Coastal Bend. Normally, I would apply for the shops and let the MSC either not award it to me or tell me I'm not eligible. These are all "self assign" so I may not get that denial or message. My worry is that I will self-assign and then realize that I have to return the items in person. Clearly, I don't want to drive all the way up there to just return an item. But I also don't want to be awarded the shop and then tell the company I can't do it because of the "in person" portion. Has anyone done these shops? If so, is there any way of knowing if you have to do some of it in person? They pay decently well if you don't have to leave your house except to go to a UPS store to return them.
Just be cool folks.
