You're not wrong but that was too aggressive for what was said previously...
I would have probably gone with, "it's probably not worth your time with returns etc for £2"

A good deal... for who?
Let me explain:
You want to:
- Repackage a pair of used shoes
- Mail them back to the retailer
- Repurchase the same pair of shoes
- Save £2
Right... that's not a £2 saving mate. That's a headache.
Some issues. Have you thought about all the excess environmental energy that gets wasted in the ship-reship that goes to save you £2?
Even then, purely on a financial, tit-for-tat basis... the retailer will not pay for refund postage for items you "simply did not want" as it was not a fault on their behalf, I guarantee you it will cost you more than £2 to ship these items back, moreso if you do not have the original packaging.
Once you return the item... the retailer may decide to charge a restocking fee for returning items for no reason (and quite rightly so, they now cannot sell the item as new and take a significant loss, all so you could save £2)...
The process would take about two weeks for you to: return the product, contact them for refund, process refund, re purchase same shoes, wait again for same shoes. The return itself could take over a week. By then, most likely the deal will have expired as it seems to be a limited sale. So much for a £2 saving when it goes back up £10. Even then... it will take another 3-5 days for the re-purchased shoes to arrive.
Taking into account the opportunity cost of such saving... in 30 mins you would have made £2.65 if you earned the minimum wage. Your net profit = -£0.65
So lets recap. You want to 'save £2'. These are your outcomes:
- You are more environmentally unfriendly
- You damage the retailers livelihood directly
- You wait two weeks
- You have an increase of £2 in your bank account
- You officially become a ****
well done mate, well done.
