I had obviously used it for a few days, but just packaged it up again and told them it was hurting my eyes and not fit for purpose.
That makes perfect sense to me, and I even mentioned how if I buy it via the website I should be able to return it for a refund under the distance selling regulations, but she was still "unconfident" about being able to issue a refund and not just an exchange or credit note. She made a point about it being down to the fact they couldn't resell the Kobo once it had been opened, so they would have to have a valid reason to return it to Kobo themselves, and that would need to be a fault.

I just thought if I'm going to have to argue about it and possibly have a hassle getting my money back, I'll just not buy it.
