Return of goods to the store without a warranty receipt is possible within two weeks. If a marriage is detected, this period is increased to two years. The guarantee is a confirmation that the transaction was completed in accordance with all the rules, the full amount was paid for the goods.
The legislation allows the possibility of returning goods in the absence of a sales receipt. This applies to almost any purchase: if there is a defect that does not fit according to any criteria. A quality product must be returned within 14 days. If the buyer could not meet this deadline for a good reason, and the store refuses to issue money due to violations of the deadlines, the client has every right to get his way through the court.
Conditions
There are several requirements that must be met. Product:
- retained its integrity, presentation;
- has not lost its properties;
- was not used for its intended purpose;
- does not have damaged seals and labels.
Not all products can be returned. This list includes medicines, underwear, products for newborns, sophisticated technical devices, and personal hygiene items. Sometimes discounted items cannot be returned. Especially when it comes to products that have a reduced cost due to defects. The rule also applies to second-hand, used products.
Procedure
The cashier's receipt is printed in duplicate. One is handed over to the buyer, the second is kept in the store. Upon receipt of an application for a refund, the seller is obliged to find the perfect payment by looking at the cash register. The availability of a guarantee implies the issuance of a special coupon. It lists all the characteristics of the purchase. Such paper can completely replace the money-back procedure. If more than 2 years have passed since the date of purchase, then the procedure becomes more complicated.
You can also prove the fact of a purchase in a particular store using:
- testimony of witnesses;
- providing a bank statement when paying by card;
- technical data sheet of the product;
- packaging from goods with information about the seller and the price.
Before going to the store to return goods under warranty without a receipt, you will need to collect all the boxes from the goods, documents. We'll have to check the thing for scratches and dents. In the store itself, you should immediately contact the administrator or manager. It is advisable to immediately prepare a statement. It must contain passport data, information about the purchase and the date of the transaction. The document is drawn up in two copies: one remains in the store, the second must be signed by the manager and the date of familiarization. The latter is handed over to the buyer.
