Question about buying iPod from Best Buy in Canada

[cujoca]

I'm interested in perhaps buying the 80 GB video iPod but have had some problems with previous iPods but am willing to give it a shot again. I was just wondering, at Best Buy in Canada what is the return policy if i am displeased with the product? I'm going away for 5 days and think it would be a perfect opportuinity to try out the iPod? i've heard its 14 days for electronics...Is this true, or is that just for unopened electronics?

Thanks in advance

I find it a little odd that you would come on macrumors and ask this question instead of asking Best Buy, but I took 30 seconds and found this for you:

it says no where there about MP3 players though...thats what is puzzling me?

 

[cujoca]

are you sure that includes the iPod?

Um...no one is really sure, so that's why I think it was suggested you contact Best Buy directly.

Well I bought one from BB last year and returned it a few days later since I realized I really couldn't afford $400 with school payments due and they took it back no problem. I just told them that it wasn't to my liking.

I'm taking it on a 7 day trip so do you think they would return it after 10 days if it's not to my liking?

i hate bestbuys return plocy. i had an lcd monitor with alot of stuck pixels so i went back to get a replacement one of the same model after having it for one night. they had to open it up and plug it into a computer to make sure i wasnt lying. even after that it was a hassle. not very fun



sams on the other hand is awesome. i had a regular xbox for a year and a half or 2 years. it broke i took it back to sams and they gave me a full refund! no questions asked

and i know sams sells ipods......
