    Hi,

    I'm interested in buying 2 wireless speakers (Bose) to give me stereo sound at home. Currys said that if I use it at home I can't return it unless it's damaged/not working.

    I understand this logic but this means that there's no way to try something out properly, in your own surroundings with your home acoustics. Or do any companies allow this, is there any way you can?

    Thanks,
    Patrick

    Argos have a good returns policy. Otherwise your best option is to buy online and use the cooling off period, carefully read read the T&C though as some require the items unopened.

    If you buy online you have a 14 day cooling off period where you can return them, although you are liable for any postage fees...
