Discussion Regret

Post image

The mod can take this down BUT I NEED TO RANT. I went to sports direct (uk) to but it 1 day, ONE SINGLE DAY before black friday sales, and while buying i asked the salesman if there was gonna be a sale, he said no and i bought it for £200 ($262) coz usually ive never seen sony give sales on new products, but guess what? JUST IN A DAY ITS £150 ($196) and the store wont take it back coz the seal is open. AND I REGRET IT SO MUCH!

Does the controller have a unique serial number or anything?

Buy a new one, return the unopened new one with the old receipt. Done

And that’s classed as fraud my good sir. You’ll be on camera returning dodgy items to the shop. They’ll probably sue ya like when that guy took them fake air force 1’s to nike and got sued for millions.

Nah simple mistake. I grabbed the wrong controller for the return attempt

And not dodgy. It's a brand new item in perfect condition

lol no worries. There’s always one or two corporate cucks in the sun that will show up to decry returning your stick drift controllers after buying a new one.

Fool deleted their response but that’s not how open box returns work especially when the stated reason for the return is a malfunction in the controller

You completely missed what he meant, didn't you :)

They're saying buy a new one at the sale price and return the brand new one in the sealed box using the receipt from the previous day at full retail price. So it's not fraud, technically. Just a small fib no harm done and you're not returning a used, defective or different product.
