Many customers (myself and my Mum included) therefore assume that, as with many mail order companies, these returns are free, as you are buying the items unseen

There's your issue right there. If you can't even do the basic due diligence before spending money, you deserve everything you get. Age has nothing to do with it btw, and shame on you for your rather ageist comments.

Grrrr ….  I hate it when people make assumptions that you can’t do something because of your age.  My pet hate is when people think I can’t use a computer because of my age.   If anyone tries that on with me I let them know that I have taught computing at evening classes 😹😹😹. I was 73 2 weeks ago today
