There was a biug in their system before when folks had got very expensive items with Visa/MC and returned to the store to get cash/cashier's check. I had thought that they resolved the issue (i remember some FT threads from before) and would refund back to the card that the purchase was made.

How much was the amount of your purchase? May be for smaller amounts they stil give cash back.

So I made an online purchase a few weeks, and decided to return it a local store over the weekend. Apparently I had paid with a visa online, and since they don't process anything but Amex in stores, they had to give me cash back.
Thought this was kind of interesting, and figured I'd share..
