    I should add that I was able to get for £99.98 today as I had reserved for collection last Saturday and when I got there, there was no stock!!

    Hence, I got the deal today via a manual over-ride, which should mean that I can take the printer back and not have to return the camera as well, as it's not showing up as a deal, only as an override.

    Would it be worth trying to return printer without a receipt as an unwanted gift, in the hope of getting gift vouchers or an exchange for a different printer?

    I've only once tried returning an item to Argos without a receipt and they were quite happy to give me vouchers. I imagine they'd be particularly flexible in the post-Xmas period?

    No excuses normally required at Argos. "Don't want it" sufficed.

    Make sure the receipt doesn't state that the purchase was part of a deal.

    Argos home deliveries never have an invoice. The label on the outer packaging is your proof of purchase and your receipt.
    Could you print out a copy of your order confirmation if you didn't keep the label.
    :)
  • Thanks, so you think i printed copy of my order confirmation email would do? Just bring that into a store and get a refund onto the card? Also would the cardholder have to be present?
    Thanks :)

    Would the blanked out order number contain more information such as payment methods? Does anyone know if they would accept a print out of this? Also do you think I should edit it so it appears it was bought alone, without the camera?

  • Bump, can anyone answer my above question? Thanks
