Not everyone does it of course.
I myself would never buy two similar devices at once and return one a couple of days later after I used both. I try to do research on devices before I purchase them. I will only return it during the return period if there is an issue with the device.
To purposefully purchase two with the intent on returning one will only increase store returns and could increase a stores overhead damaging profit. The deivces CANNOT be sold as new after returned. I shudder to think what would happen if scores of people did this.
Theres no reason why someone cannot go into the store and try these out or at the very least watch videos and read reviews. The devices we are talking about are so similar I dont see the need for anyone to purchase both with the intent on returning one after playing around with them. It pretty much comes down to a couple of preference issues with both devices. They are not that complex that a decision cannot be made that way.
I defintely think that a restocking fee should be standard for any undamaged opened product returned to retailers.
