Just go to your CC company and do a chargeback as I believe most pretty much have rules about reasonable return windows. A 7-day return is not reasonable when returning half-way around the planet. It might not even allow for customs clearance in India. Having never shipped to India I don't know much about the quality of their customs or postal systems. But as my parcel insurance underwriter does not cover anything shipped to India I just won't ship there. So I wonder how many devices with become "lost" in their postal system?
A darn shame the whole thing is not turning out that great. I've read a couple of the adam boards and some folks seem OK and some never really understood that the non-backlit mode is not for indoor low light reading....duuuuuhhh, but the other issues are simply not right, not for the better part of a grand per device.
Still I hope they figure it all out and realize the MUST create a real global distribution network or this will fail. Even Amazon has distribution from places outside the US. I know many international corporations does the same. It's all about the logistics and then, of course, a service network. All of this takes money and time and should have been on the top 2-3 items on their to-do list.
