The Bottom Line: Many Unhappy Returns

Series 1, episode 2

Evan Davis reports on major fashion brands' responses to returned goods, from charging for online returns to banning customers who routinely send products back. He examines the mini-industry that has sprung up to deal with the billions of pounds of items rejected by customers, and discusses the best way to tackle it and whether the responsibility lies with brands, shoppers, or governments
