But it also says you should be compensated if you are out of pocket. If you buy an item like a printer for say £40 you would expect it to last at least 12 months. That means depreciation of only £3.33 for each full month of use you had out of it. If you then claim compensation from them for say a return trip to the shop or even printing costs because you had to use a library/school etc which all charge - you get your full refund.
Incidently M&S did compensate me fully for a whole wash load when a child's sleep suit which was supposedly colour fast at 40 degrees ran into every other colour thing in the machine. I took the lot in and they gave me over £100 without any hassle.
Yup, as you found out the compensation can be alot more than the actual item itself - basically any out of pocket expenses that are incurred by their product not performing as it should.0
