The problem is that no one knows it was a legal purchase except the guy who's engaging in the suspicious behavior.

No one knows the pants I'm wearing were a legal purchase, either. That still doesn't give you the right to search me and detain me.

Give us something that protects the rights of the store to not have you steal their product and we'll take a look at it.

How about handing the customer a tag for a TV, and they can hand that tag in at a loading dock, after they have paid for the TV? Much more effective, and much more space-effective, as well.

Now the business must have a loading dock and run the product directly into the car? What else do they have to do so you don't have to open a bag at the door and feel violated. You have crossed the line at being ridiculous.

You can be stopped for pants if the receipt shows you didn't buy the pair you're wearing and there's an old pair in the bag or for the second pair you're wearing. All because the receipt was checked at the door.
