I'm guessing you're confusing the two.

1) Deleted Item Retention set on Mailbox Store (can be set individually on mailboxes as well). Use the following cmdlet to view the existing setting:
Get-MailboxDatabase -Server MyServer | Select name,DeletedItemRetention

Is it set to 7 days?

The "Use Mailbox Database Defaults" checkbox is for the "DeletedItemFlags" property of a mailbox. (You can output these by using the following:
Get-Mailbox | Select Name,*Deleted*

It's a boolean property which has the follwing values (as shown in the output):
1) DatabaseDefault (If value is $true)
2) RetainForCustomPeriod (if value is set to $false)

To set this property:
Set-Mailbox | UseDatabaseRetentionDefaults $false.

This is documented in the Set-Mailbox cmdlet:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123981(EXCHG.80).aspx

2) Managed Folder Mailbox Policy: Not quite sure what's the issue with this. Please elaborate.

In brief, the process:
1) Managed Folders (Default or Custom) ---> Create a Managed Content Settings for the Default Folders (such as Inbox, Deleted Items, etc.) that you want to specify a retention setting for.

2) Managed Folder Mailbox Policy --> Create a MF Mailbox Policy. Add one or more Managed Folders (Custom or Deault) to a policy.

3) Mailbox --> Assign Managed Folder Mailbox Policy. MF policies are associated with mailboxes. You can assign them using the EMC or using Set-Mailbox cmdlet.

here's what I used:

Here's the command I'm using for that (by database)
Get-MailboxDatabase -Server myserver | Set-MailboxDatabase
-DeletedItemRetention 7.00:00:00

Here's what I'm using for the managed folder policy: Get-Mailbox
-ResultSize unlimited | Set-Mailbox -ManagedFolderMailboxPolicy
"defaultpolicy"

When I try the deleted item retention I get this back -- but I have multiple
users on each database that don't have the "use mailbox database defaults"
checked.

What is returned by powershell is this:

WARNING: The command completed successfully but no settings of
'server\SG_Resource\DB_Resource' have been
WARNING: The command completed successfully but no settings of
'server\SG_A-F\DB_A-F' have been modified.

'server\SG_L-P\DB_L-P' have been modified.
WARNING: The command completed successfully but no settings of
'server\SG_Q-Z\DB_Q-Z' have been modified.

I also ran a verbose tag and get this:
