They are a registered business that buys from Hasbro, or from a source that buys from Hasbro, so they have the ability to claim back credit from their source for faulty products so that they aren't out of pocket. And any extra shipping that they are liable to cover is just part of the risk of running that sort of business and should be factored into the profit margin. They just don't want the extra hassle of dealing with customers after they've made a sale... but don't realise that looking after your customers after a sale is how you keep your customers coming back.
(like BBTS do)
It's interesting to see that over 10% of people voting here recommend using them due to issues... while another 10% have had minor problems that may or may not have been fixed up. That's like 1 in 4 people not having a satisfactory transaction with RK.
And they were such a great business when they started up.
