Returning a product after 30 days.

Options
Hi everyone,

I am in a little bit of help but if this is not the correct section of the forum please feel free to move the thread.

Basically, I bought a Living World Triop Park from Argos a few months ago (I always do my Christmas Shopping throughout the year) then on Christmas Day kids opened the box, we set everything up - followed instructions to the letter - however the supposed eggs never hatched, sons are upset, etc.

I still have the receipt and I was wondering, could I return it to Argos even tho the 30 days return policy has expired?

Thanks for reading.

L.

    Yes if its "faulty" or "not fit for purpose". I would use the argument that this item did not do as it was intended and therefore if "faulty".
  • Hi Mike,

    Thank you for your swift reply.
    I will give it until tomorrow and if nothing happens I shall take it back.

    Thanks again.

    If something is already 'broken' when you open it, you can return it anytime, not just within 30 days.
