      On or about 11/5/21, my staff and I spoke with Henry Schein Medical (HSM) salesperson ******** to potentially open a business relationship. We asked about ***'s return policy. ******** said all items are returnable if we are not happy. HSM catalog says 100% customer satisfaction. On 2/24/22 we ordered a Blood Pressure Monitor/Stand (***) through ******** $3,487.75. The *** was not appropriate for my office. We tried to return it. ******** said it was not returnable. My staff and I tried multiple times to return it. Their sales manager *** told me it cant be returned because it was a 3rd party vendor, who would not take it back; that he did not want to lose the 3k, so I should pay. I filed a cc dispute. HSM gave no evidence they complied with the law by failing to post a non return policy, so it was settled in my favor. Next I got an, email from *********************** who blamed us for ordering it without "doing the research" and added late fees under threat of collections. This was egregious, On 11/23/22 I spoke with HSM VP ******************. He apologized, was sent all relevant info information (demand letter, cc dispute) and said he would take care of it. On 12/8/22 I spoke with received ********************* who stated, like ***, the 3rd party vendor "was playing hardball" and would not take the *** back; He again threatened me with collections/late charges. **** did not know anything about the cc reversal; information I gave ******, or laws regarding internet sales. When I told him HSM did not comply with the ***************** tried to negotiate a cheaper price for the *** so his sales team could make some money. I of course refused. It got worse. On 1/13/23 I received an email, which included and therefore was approved by HSM VP ******************, stating HSM, thought t it was fair to coerce me to buy another *** and they would take the old one back, or face collections. This all to ensure, HSM gets payment through threats without taking any accountability for their own deficits.

      This was an unfortunate incident and we disagree with the allegations from ***************** that our leadership team threatened him.  Our order entry system clearly shows the item ****************** ordered was not a stocking item, and that it required direct shipment from one of our supplier partners.  Our terms of sale and order entry system clearly show drop ship items are non-returnable.  To resolve this dispute, our sales leadership team agreed to make an exception and they approved a return authorization.  The return authorization was issued 2/2/23 and return labels were emailed to ************************* as ***************** requested, which will be at Henry Scheins expense.  When the items are received by our returns team they will be processed for full credit and applied to the open invoice on account.  We believe this will close the complaint.

      Our Henry Schein ************** team has confirmed that **************** purchased software, but he did not go through the conversion or implementation process.  His request for a full refund with interest has been reviewed and declined, which was communicated to **************** on several occasions by the Henry Schein ************** team.
