Anyone know about Tesco's return policies?

Glass_Half_Empty??

Sorry if wrong forum but I don't know where else to put it.
I have bought a couple of games for my X Box 360 and they are rubbish. I wondered if anyone knew if I could get away with taking them back now. I know Asda will let you return them if it is within the 28 days as long as they aren't scratched(which mine isn't) but not sure and don't want to make a fool of myself by going down and asking for them to say no cause my g/f is a manager there.

You MAY be okay GHE, but why not ask your gf?

Why don't you give them a ring as a 'potential customer' what happens if my kids/nephew/brother doesn't like the game.

you wont be able to return them, unless they are faulty

Surely they only take a return if its faulty, otherwise everyone could buy games..use it for a month and return it saying it was rubbish....

They wont take them back if they have been opened, and even then (sometimes they do) will only exchange it for the same title. All down to copyright - its too easy now to copy the games and have them for nothing.

Take it back and tell them the game has been freezing. They have no way of testing the games and will just refund it as a faulty item.

My g/f is the resource manager and has nothing to do with the shop floor. I would have her ask but if they say no to her and then I turn up then it would look a bit dodgy. Think I will go with the freezing on me thing, thanks for that

Im sorry but I find that totally dishonest to say that they are freezing when they arent.

So are you going to say that they are both freezing?

I would accept that a bad choice had been made when purchasing the games and sell them on ebay rather than defraud a company

very true... but asdas games (new ones) are always empty anyway as they keep them stored out of there cases... this is why i will only buy games from stores that sell you the sealed packet... the last time i brought a game in asda... they filled it at the checkout... the disc got droped... it when down the exitbelt and got jammed... the till opperater then proceeded to pull the game out and bend it put it into my case and sell it to me... needless to say i refused t pay for it... now i would rather go somewhere else and pay the extra £3/£4 to get a 'new' game
