    think you can return it in the first 7 days with no problem

    7.3 Consumers may cancel their Orders for any reason until, but no later than: 7.3.1 the end of the 7th "working day" (days other than weekend days & public holidays) after the day of receipt of the Product &/or of the Service Order Confirmation (as applicable); or
    7.3.2 the end of the 7th working day after the date when all such information required by law is supplied.

    7.4 Consumers' right to cancel Software that is supplied on CD, DVD or other similar storage devices is also lost if the Software is unwrapped.

  • I think if you are just returning within 7 days under the Distance Selling Regulations for no good reason other than you've changed your mind then I think that charge is fair enough. However if there something wrong with it then the Sale of Goods Act would apply. Talk to your Local Trading Standards. Since you only have 7 days anyway under DSR I'd send it back and then try to claim the costs back in slower time, because it's defective.
