This is your best bet. A lot of times it's at the discrepancy of the store manager.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931073.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931073.page GMT Re:Games Workshop Return Policy? GW store that I bought the item from yesterday. Its that the item didn't come in a sealed package that I'm wondering about kind of. Do GW accept items that aren't in plastic packaging for returns? I've got a bad repoir with the staff at my GW (on account of them belittling anyone non GW gamer publically), thus I'm kind of wanting to have a president in case one of the staff starts disagreeing with me when I try and get my money back.

Reason for returning? I bought it on a whim, but then I checked the reciept and found it cost the same as a box of figures (I thought it was £8, not £18, and was questioning its value even at the prior...). Probably not the best reason, but I would still think I would be allowed to return the item for credit.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931078.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931078.page GMT Games Workshop Return Policy? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931082.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931082.page GMT Re:Games Workshop Return Policy?

If they won't give you a refund you should at least be able to get store credit for something else.

And yes, the basing kits are ferociously expensive!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931100.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931100.page GMT Re:Games Workshop Return Policy? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931113.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931113.page GMT Games Workshop Return Policy?

AFAIK, according with EU law, you have a 7 day period, counting from the moment of purchase, that you can return anything that you bought and ask for your money back, no questions asked, no reason needed other than "I changed my mind".

No, I'm afraid this isn't true. There are laws like this in place for online selling, but a shop has no obligation to accept a return if there's nothing wrong with the product.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931149.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931149.page GMT Re:Games Workshop Return Policy?

You are right, the EU Law only covers distance selling but says absolutely nothing about store bought items! Weird!

GW. I don't think you'll have any issues here so long as you take it back promptly.

Unless, of course, the manager is a jerk.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931194.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931194.page GMT Games Workshop Return Policy? GW will take anything back for exchange even without a reciept as long as it's still sealed / in saleable condition.
The basing kits are randomly sometimes sealed and sometimes not which is odd.
But seeing as you bought it yesterday and it wasn't sealed, then it should be no issue at all.
GW have a great returns policy.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931227.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931227.page GMT Re:Games Workshop Return Policy? GW plc stores have the same policy on returns as all other retail outlets in Britain.

They can exchange non faulty for items of a similar retail value or offer store credit.(As most reputable retail stores do this, GW stores are no different.)

If you have purchased an iten that is faulty ,they HAVE to refund your money, or replace the faulty item.
And as the items GW plc sell only cost them 24% of the retail price.It is MUCH cheaper for them to GIVE you a replacent , that give you your money back.
Even posting you a replacment free of charge is much cheaper than refunding your purchase price...

So GW plc 'excellent customer service.' Is the same customer service you get from any reputable high street store.And giving you a free replacement is the cheapest option they have under UK law.(The Consumer Act.)

Seriously!? They have a 76% markup! Damn... that's insanely high.

Thing is, he's not returning a faulty item, so he's not protected by this. As above though, doubt it'll be an issue. And not all retail outlets have the same returns policy, only when it comes to legal issues like faulty goods. Discretionary returns varies quite a lot from retailer to retailer.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931392.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4931392.page GMT Games Workshop Return Policy? GW would issue refunds if asked even if you didn't have a receipt. It seems that some people were milking the system by buying online at steep discount and then returning the item at a GW store, making a couple bucks profit on each box. GW has since discontinued this and changed their policy to requiring a receipt from a GW store and then only issuing store credit in most cases (manager's discression).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4932134.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486143/4932134.page GMT
