Isn't there a law about it being fit for the purpose as well? Say it doesn't play loud enough or something! :lol:
Yes but that basically means its faulty etc but i suppose it would be worth saying its not fit :lol:

No this is wrong, the law states:

If something is purchased in error or unwanted as a consumer you are stuck with the item & the retailer doesnt have to take it back, however some retailers find this rule too harsh so they offer an exchange policy.

I feel gutted for my sister. It's her birthday today so my mum bought her a new ipod 60 gb about a week ago, so it was here ready for her b-day. But yesterday (the day before her b-day) the new ipod with video is released for the same money spent on the ipod 60 gb :(

So effectively if she had waited till now, she would have the video one.




Take it back & exchange it for the new one, most places given you 21 days from purchase to exchange unwanted items :thumbs:

no the ipod photo does not have the hardware capability to play back video, whatever the video format is, which will probably be MP4 of sorts, or some kind of QT file. so no shes stuck with the boggo photo/music capability im afraid
