When Can You Return A DVD & Blu-Ray To Walmart?
You can return any DVD or Blu-Ray disc you bought through Walmart within 90 days of purchase, according to Walmart’s official policy on returns of these products. Once 90 days have passed, Walmart will not accept any returns.
However, note that if you are returning in-store, the decision to accept a return after 90 days rests with the store manager.
In case you have a valid reason for returning after 90 days, you can speak to the store manager and explain your situation to try and get a return.
Can You Return DVD & Blu-Ray Without A Receipt To Walmart?
Yes, you can return a DVD & Blu-Ray to Walmart if you don’t have the receipt, as long as the total value of the goods is not above $50.
You have to make sure that the items are unopened and inside the original packaging for the return to be accepted.
DVD and Blu-Ray returns made without receipts are refunded with in-store credit only.
If you don’t have the receipt and paid using a credit or debit card, the store employees may be able to track and verify your purchase, giving you a full refund.
If the store employees are unable to verify your purchase, you must present a valid government-issued photo ID, upon which you will be refunded in-store credit.
How Can You Return A DVD & Blu-Ray To Walmart In-store?
To return a DVD or Blu-Ray to Walmart, you should bring the unopened disc with the receipt (if available) and the original packaging to a nearby Walmart store (or the store where you bought it from).
If you had paid using a credit or debit card, make sure to bring it along as well.
Go to the checkout counter and ask the employee to return the DVD. If you have the receipt, you will be refunded through the mode of payment you used to make the purchase.

Can You Return An Opened DVD & Blu-Ray To Walmart?
