    Aldi has a no quibble guarantee, so if you're not happy then you can return it for a full refund.

    So how does this effect the Warranty? Would the op as the second owner (if it has indeed been sold and returned) be able to claim on a manufacturers warranty? Most warranties are not transferrable, I thought?

    Exactly, that's good customer service. But what do you expect them to do with returned items, bin them?
    I'm not bad at golf, I just get better value for money when I take more shots!

    Nope, sell them as a returned, open box item.

    Is that really feasible though?

    The OP was offered a product which they were free to inspect, and the OP subsequently offered money which was accepted by the store.

    If the OP would like to return the product he is free to do so under the 30 day money back guarantee.
