This is true of the USA. Other jurisdications have different consumer protection laws. In the UK store returns are pretty much an absolute right under this sort of circumstance -- goods sold must be "fit for purpose" and a retailer who won't accept a return may be breaking the law. (This case is complicated by it being a kiosk and providing insufficient information, but even so ...)
- chris_wot 15y agoSame with Australia. Our consumer protection law also has fit for purpose guarantees, you can ge a full refund of you have been misled about the product. Also, there is no such thing as a 12 month warranty - if the product (for example n iPhone) is reasonably expected to last for 2 years, then you get that product for two years with warranty.
