There is no 14 day "cooling off period" or automatic right to cancel for purchases made in store so they did nothing wrong in not spelling it out to you. You should always assume that all sales are final and ask about any refund/ cancellation policy a store chooses to offer.0

How or how much they paid doesn't have any bearing on the lack of a right of cancellation.0 -
there are no cancellation rights for goods purchased in store. Some stores offer goodwill change of mind refunds but there is no legislation for them to do so. The default position for items purchased in store would be non-refundable unless faulty or advised otherwise.
If you needed to know whether cancellation would be possible you should have asked the question.0 -

Did I say it did? :rotfl:
If they paid on finance then you do have a 14 day cooling off period on the finance. Even if in store.
How that would effect the sale is another matter.Life in the slow lane0 -

My main issue is that we did not get told that we wouldnt be able to cancel it.The process in store is not great - there are no T&C's until after you sign? And you're signing against what the sales person has said rather than reading it on the iPad?Main issue is it should've been read to us that we can't cancelSurely if we physically cannot take the sofa then we can cancel?0

Try negotiating something with them. Currently, if you cancel the credit agreement, they have your deposit and nothing else.
To get more they are going to have to sue you. That doesn't necessarily mean they will get anything. They might be willing to accept something rather than risk court and getting nothing.
This is not a strategy I would recommend for the faint hearted though as it does carry the risk of you having to defend a court claim.
Be nice and polite initially and try appealing to their good nature in the first instance and see what happens.0
