    Owning a store for over 20 years, as well as running stores for
    others for 10 years previous, when I purchase items from a
    wholesaler, it is mine forever more, unless the salesrep/mfg/whoever
    states upfront that they have a stock balancing program. Watch
    companies do it alot but considerably less so amongst jewelry mfg.
    You've got to be a mighty fine customer to get this from a jewelry
    co. Generally, when a store attempts to return old merchandise
    without a previously agreed stock balance program, there is probably
    an entirely different issue occurring, like poor purchasing
    decisions, or bad financial condition and is looking for a way out,
    at someone elses expense. Either way, its not your problem. Chances
    are extremely good that even if you do the exchange/return/credit
    that this account will never be a profitable scenario, as you are
    probably dealing with dreamers instead of professionals.
