In defense - you don't say how old the parts are; were they still in
original packaging; you had original shipping receipts; or anything else.
You also didn't say if VB would have refunded your full amount if those same
conditions exist.
TRF will (or at least they did when I was going through the refurbishment
process) give full refunds if the parts are returned in a timely manner. I
would like to hear of one store (automotive or otherwise) that will give
full refunds a year later...(arbitrary time frame given).

I just checked the catalogs (old ones) in question - VB returns are 180
days; TRF's are 45 days. So there may be some advantage to VB if that is
the time frame you are referring to. Otherwise....

I've ordered over $3K worth of parts from TRF over the years, and contacted
them this week to return some parts. They want a **50%** return fee, even
tho I want to order other parts. Guess what company just got the last of
my business? Victoria British, on the other hand, charges nothing to
return parts. From now on, my money goes to VB exclusively.
