Let me tell you a story:
Once upon a time there was a young, strapping, sexy ass young man named Rawky-Roo (not his real name). Mr Roo was an up and coming film maker and decided that rather than waiting for the phone to ring he should start making his own, low budget films.
He got together with a good friend of his and both of them started working on a script for their first film. He also met some distant family members, who were in the acting field and offered to act in his film for free. Woo. The only thing really missing was a camera.
Mr Roo ordered a camera which cost him, roughly, ÂĢ1,300. Sure it was pricey but he thought he would get a lot of use out of it and it was perfect for what he needed. Anyway, he would just pay it on his credit card, whats the worst that could happen?
When the new camera arrived Mr Roo couldn't be happier, it was the most sexy, smart and glorious camera he had ever seen. However, he came across a slight problem. His new sexy, smart and glorious camera did not seem to be compatible with Mac computers. Thinking this was an oversight on his behalf he looked into further research of the camera. All the websites and ALL the reviews of it said NOTHING about it being incompatible with Macs. This worried Mr Roo, who contacted Sony and waited 24 hours for an automated response not given a direct answer.
'Threat not', Mr Roo thought to himself. He will just return the camera and get his money back, he was after all still within the 15 DAY NO FUSS MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. He boxed up his new camera saying goodbye to what could have been a perfect relationship and headed to the post office. He asked them to have this delivered as fast as possible, as it was going to Paris. The lady at the post office weighed his parcel and said that it would cost him ÂĢ50 or ÂĢ90 with insurance. Mr Roo was slightly taken aback by this revelation. 90 QUID!!!! 90 BLOODY QUID!!!! With no real option and time not on his side, he opted for the ÂĢ50 (no insurance) would should get delivered in 2 days time.
When Mr Roo got home, he double checked to make sure everything was in motion. The website had notified him saying that they are waiting on his package....they also gave him another gem of information which read:
"If you package is returned to us after the first 7 days of the 15 DAY NO FUSS MONEY BACK GUARANTEE, you will be refunded in vouchers costing to the amount of your original purchase"
Mr Roo, then realised that this coming Thursday will be the '8th day'
