ft，在家雪藏小肥羊已达两年的华丽飘过

其实如果那个买家不是那么咬文嚼字的发大字报，故意引导舆论去说是卖家刮的什么的，卖家可能就地给解决了

如果卖家一句话不说就退钱还是什么的，搞的好象买家说的什么刮日期是真事一样，我想卖家火了的原因就在此吧

换班不能跟恶霸学，恶霸单纯保护买家都保护的没治了。

我觉得有的人（不是本帖当事人，也不是什么靴子当事人）可能有想出热闹的心理。反正买家又不麻烦，嚷嚷一阵，就一个高楼开始了。我们旁观者有时候不也有阴暗的喜欢看出事了集体微观的嘛。自从那个什么包，搞的跟福尔摩斯一样，仿佛这种什么“猜测”“怀疑”就成了流行了。

其实这事本来卖家是理亏的，本来好好能解决的，但是买家非要把这个舆论导成这样子，让人家卖家吃了亏（自己买到没保质期的东西也是吃亏吧，还浪费这么多去邮局什么的effort）还要被人家扇不明不白的一巴掌。。。。。

84年生产的，吃的不是食品，吃的是怀旧。。。

GOVERNMENT GUIDELINES.  What does the government say? The Food & Drug Administration, which regulates packaged foods and drugs, only requires a use-by, or expiration, date on infant formula. That's because formula must contain a certain quantity of each nutrient that is described on the label. And if formula is stored too long, it loses its nutritional quality, and also separates or form lumps that will clog the bottle nipple.

The Agriculture Dept., which regulates fresh produce and meats, only requires labeling of the date when poultry is packed at the farm. However, many manufacturers are allowed to also add sell-by or use-by dates. "Grocery stores that grind their own meat can add their own package labels," says USDA spokesman Steve Cohen.

In fact, both the FDA and the USDA have a pretty laissez-faire attitude when it comes to food shelf-life labeling. That's not because they are not concerned for people's health. Mark Harrison, professor of food science at the University of Georgia, points out that most of these dates are not an indicator of safety, rather of quality. "Some foods spoil if not refrigerated quickly enough—but they won't kill you," says Harrison.

再给转一个：

About The Law

Most Dates Are Voluntary
With exception of certain poultry, baby food products and formulas most all other food product expiration dates are not required by federal law but are voluntarily provided by food manufacturers.  This does vary from state to state and many states legislate sell-by dates for perishable foods.  According to several sources including the USDA there are 20 states that require some mandatory labeling for dairy products.  So far we know that Arizona, California, Ohio, and New York have some labeling laws.  (Read about California's milk labeling law)

Dates Are Guidelines
On the most part dates are provided as guidelines for both product sellers and the buying public.  Most dates are NOT expiration dates; you are not going to get sick because you eat something past its "best by" date.  Some dates have become marketing devices for product manufactures.  A good example of this are dates that are appearing on soft drinks.  There really is not much to expire with a beverage made of water, sugar, and artificial coloring.  This is one of those cases where the manufacturer appears to just be encouraging you to throw it out and buy more.

如果非要说美国法律的话，前面傻mm（叫着很别扭啊）一口一个美国的中国店，以上可以供您参考

因此转让没有生产日期，只能是不被卖家prefer，但不违反法律。所以卖家在法律上似乎都没有什么过失。查生产日期，作为一个guideline，是人们习惯参考的一个标准而已，除了几类食品意外，FDA 并没有强硬要求。

唯一卖家可能出错的地方是：她说有生产日期，而买家收到上面没有，此为”售出物品与描述不符“，而看样子买家mm当时急于购买，也没有询问此方面问题，卖家也没有主动对生产日期进行任何描述

怎么恶意揣测她都不为过？

如果一个罪犯犯了一个应该判三年的罪，法庭”怎么恶意揣测他都不为过“，随手给判个三十年，对吗？

 再说，我先前还没看法律部分，现在看了法律部分，卖家凭啥要退要换呢？除非卖家之前拍着胸脯说这上面有生产日期，属于”不符描述“。或者，发的不是小肥羊，而是小瘦羊。

退货政策也没有正确与错误之分

比如你上恶霸，各个卖家的return policy都不一样，你能说，这家比那家更好，因为return policy更宽松，但是你不能说这家是对的，那家是错的。有的人卖很紧俏的东西，就说好了卖什么样的就什么样，不work都不管，你要么就不买，要么买就认这个风险，买家除非是收到和描述不符的产品，比如说人家说是红色的，结果你收到是蓝色的，否则必须遵循商家的return policy。

you are absolutely right，当你的货品紧俏的时候，你就有底气在return policy上做成对卖家有利，只要你不是违法，这个就是商品经济。中国超市反正你也要去的，吃了亏你下次还要去的，他们就抓住了顾客的这个心理。你能说他们不好，但是不能说他们不对。

（这个已经超出讨论这个小肥羊事件了哈，泛泛而谈）
