I took back my N3DS today to Wal-Mart and explained to them exactly why. The clerk didn't care about Gateway.

Going to buy a new putter and approach wedge instead. Golf weather will come before Gateway's release.

Well guys, in North America, you can take back your console to your resseller if you want, they really don't care. That's not the same in Europe... It's hard to be refund if you have opened the box.

Actually thats not true as long as you have everything that came with it. People in general just dont give a fuck.

actually what Breith said was true,99.9% of the time you can't return an item once it's been opened unless it's faulty.
well there is no legal right to return it even if its unopened, unless you bought it online in which case you can legally return it within 14 days, but really it all boils down to each shops own policy
the fight is over,are you're trying to start it again by bringing it up or something !! :whip: :P
oh nope, i was just reading up and was like.......ok ill skip ahead now

Well, each shops... or each countries: the return delay isn't a European law.

I'm french, even if I'm living in Canada.

I live in Canada and at ebgames we cannot return the item unless defective once it has been opened.. this is the case for most electronics.

As gamesquest1 said, it depends where you buy it. For example in Croatia some stores give you a 7 day trial and if youre not happy you can switch the product or demand a refund but only if the product is in pristine condition with everything it came.

It works better with really big company like Walmart or Amazon.

well the 14 days cooling off period is EU law, but its only on items you buy online, or from a salesman kind of deal, not if you go into a shop and buy it

Ohoh, it's finally an EU law? Good! And man is wondering why more and more people are starting to buy stuff online...

yeah tbh its more of an unwritten rule that you can return stuff to shops if you don't want it, i don't think any countries have that level of consumer protection as it would be open to abuse, so its mostly just down to each individual shop to decided if they want to or not, if the item is faulty that's the only time you can legally return a purchase......so it comes down to the shop or even the member of staff serving you to decide if they accept any returns that are not faulty

Both of my n3ds consoles didn't have seals on them. So you could just return them as new even if it's not because there's no way to prove otherwise
If my memory is good, you have to configure your profile before you can access to the configuration panel and thus know the sysNand of your console.​

nothing a quick format doesn't solve, but yeah in most cases stores are happy to do exchanges....less happy to do refunds, they will normally just push for a gift voucher refund unless you stand your ground
