You are wrong, using return policies to get test devices is morally wrong. Your friend is stealing the cost of discounting the returned item + the cost of processing the return. Buying something that might work, trying it and returning it if it doesn't isn't morally wrong. The difference is your friend is buying with no actual intent to keep and own.
