According to Nordstrom.com, exchanges are processed as return and sale, which I assume means the original miles will be lost (can someone confirm?).

What's the best approach here? Obviously we're not going to keep stuff that doesn't fit or we don't like, but for two of the items we just need a different size, and for the other two my wife would love a gift card that she can go crazy in the store with. How do I accomplish that, AND get to keep my Avios?
Buy the correct size and then return the wrong size with the new receipt. Remember you're dealing with Nordstroms which has a Costco type return policy (since before Costco existed). They won't bat an eye.

My points are showing as "0" from day uno lol ... I'm hoping that's because my order was in some hold mode over the weekend while they called to verify some info.

Anyone else with a similar story?
