The story (which Snopes says is likely not true, or at least heavily exaggerated) says that Nordstrom acquired a small chain of department stores in Alaska and converted them to Nordstrom stores. The original stores had an automotive department, which was closed in the conversion, and the guy had purchased the tires at the old store and his return was accepted at the new store even though it was something they didn't carry.
That same story about the tires makes the rounds in our industry, except it is Home Depot that took them back.
