    Out of interest, in those distance selling reg. in says that if an item is faulty and you send it back for repair then it must be 'carried out within a reasonable time'. Does anyone know what would be classed as an unreasonable amount of time?

    Unfortunately this varies between products, with computers or computer parts Trading Standards believed 14 days is a reasonable time, but with something like a hover or maybe washing machine it could be as little as 7 days.

    I'm 99% sure even if they state in their T's and C's that faulty goods must be returned at your costs, this will not hold water with the Sale of Goods Act. (not talking about distant selling regulations returns)

    So stand up for your rights :D

    Just to note that the original query was about dead pixels, a certain number of which are allowed without the display being considered faulty. So if you want to return it because of (an acceptable number of) dead pixels, you'll have to return it as unwanted, and presumably will have to pay postage costs.
    Time is an illusion - lunch time doubly so.

    Yes, I think if you send something back under the Distant Selling Regulations you have to pay for postage back (only fair really) it not he same thing as returning faulty goods :)
  • It's very easy to issue a small claim on-line now
    I've issued small claims through the courts before, but I didn't know you could do it online - how does that work, please? :)
    Thanks to all who post constructively.
