Yes, it's not good for the retailers offering this while customers use the service as a 'test before you buy service.'

Actually, I was wondering what the retailers did with returned goods. I have been rather put off the idea of buying stuff when a retailer accepts returns with no question because of the issue of buyers abusing it. (and the goods) An 'iffy' dealer could rebox/repackage and sell as new - that aspect worries me.

If an honest retailer sells as 'B stock' or 'demos' then I feel happier about it but it's not good for the retailer and could eventually put their costs up.
