    as per tescos terms about refunds,

    For all returns - Please let us have any original packaging, tabs, labels and accessories and please package it all securely. If you’re returning an item because you’ve changed your mind, there may be a deduction from your refund if it has been damaged, opened more than necessary to check it’s working, or used more than reasonably expected.

    So OP, as I asked before, how much are you prepared to gamble financially on your "scheme".

    Let alone the question of whether you have the know-how to irretrievably wipe your personal data.

    How much do you expect them to knock off after 14 days use with a predicted lifetime of 5-10years :rotfl: £0.

    How much off the price would YOU expect to pay for a used laptop verses a new one :rotfl:

    If a retailer sold used laptops as new, would that be a scheme or a scam?

    You know what you are doing is far beyond what Tesco allow for in their refund policy.[/QUOTE
    If a retailer sold my 2 week old used laptop as new that would be a scam. If they sold it as used or ex-display as I'd expect them to, then it wouldn't. Obviously.

    So the difference in price between new and used would be the difference in your refund.

    Seriously did your brain write that.

    Tax return Falls 'over and above necessary handling and use'...within 14 days :rotfl:

    Using excel is "over and above " the normal use of a computer :rotfl:

    Heard it all now. ..I'll leave you lot of worriers and paranoid types to your own devices now. ...do-gooders

    Over and out

    My brain is fully engaged, thanks.

    There are definitions, in law, of what is considered to be reasonable handling, but as you are far cleverer than the rest of us I will leave it to you to either research for yourself, or find out from Tesco when you return it.

    Yes how foolish of them to try and make sure you don't do anything that will impact negatively on you.

    I'm sure they won't make the same mistake again. Not like they'll be the ones paying!
