I'm guessing Canada.

First offense? Returning the merchandise has nothing to do with the charge or the "punishment." It's still $7,000 in theft.

Is this theft from an employer?

If you are lucky probation, most likely 5 years or so. Or 3 to 5 year jail sentence with about one year served.

If the merchandise is still not in the same package, and even then it may not be still sellable by many rules and laws.

But paying back the store most likely the full amount, plus a penalty, plus a fine plus court costs, my guess 15,000 or so in total money to be paid during probation.

Yes Canada and yes from a employer. First offence of theft, I have a prior charge of drug possession from 5 years ago

My feeling is jail time. Theft from an employer is treated harshly.
