I bought the Nintendo Switch from CEX yesterday, from the Harrow branch. Yesterday, the employee tolD me that they have a two-day window—if you change your mind, you can return it. So, when I went today—less than 24 hours later—I went to return it, and they told me that they would give me a voucher; they would not give me cash or a money refund. I told them that they should have told me this before I bought it, that their two-day window was for a voucher; they don’t give cash. Then they said, “No, no, my colleague clearly explained it to you—that the two-day window is for the voucher, not for the cashback.” I said, “No, what you just said now is what your employee should have told me yesterday—that the two-day window was for the voucher, not for the cashback.” So, a debate started. They are clearly saying that they stood with their employee who was there yesterday, that I was explained everything about the return policies. However, when I was there, no employee told me any of this, and I never saw that guy at CEX. I was looking around for about an hour, thinking about which one to buy, and I never saw him. Today, he said he was standing with me and heard everything, but this is what happened. I didn’t get a refund; I only got a voucher. This was my first time buying from CEX, and honestly, I’m telling you, this was the worst experience I’ve ever had. Because wherever I go, at least they have a refund policy. The voucher policy is good—I’m not saying it’s bad—but what do I do with this voucher? Because now I will never buy from CEX again. This was my first experience, so how should I think about buying from you? No doubt, your products are good—second-hand products—but this is the worst experience.
