In the USA, Kobo's a harder sell because neither vendors like Powell's nor Kobo will support your purchase.
So you know that Powell's will not honor what their web site states:

Unopened Kobo devices, with seal intact, are returnable within 30 days of receipt. Once opened, Kobo devices are not returnable. If defective, your Kobo can be exchanged for a replacement. No substitutions.

I bought my Kobo from Powell's this month. There is nothing wrong with it. I would hope they would honor their policy if there was. Do you have evidence that they don't?

6 months down the road? I wouldn't think most device makers would be bothered, other than Amazon. But I refuse to limit myself to buying Amazon devices just because they have the best replacement history. I'll buy the devices that I want and take good care of them.
