I keep seeing this (for AO generally) and really don't understand the issue.
If it's faulty you can return it no problems, and I have no sympathy for someone who would order an enormous boxed, big TV just to have a nosey at it and decide whether or not to keep...
If you want to peruse it first, get off your ar5e and go and look in a shop!
Can I also add, that the type of people who would moan about this, are no doubt the same who would go bananas if they ordered one and received a repackaged returned unit! Do you think AO should give you a 100% refund, and then send the TVs to be crushed??

For our friend who works at AO above, I will explain.
A distance contract can be cancelled by the consumer, and the consumer can get a full refund. The consumer has 14 days. See s29(1) of theThe Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.
Reimbursement must be made without delay (S34).
S34(9)- The retailer can deduct an amount that the goods may be diminished by, as a result of handling- this is what AO are probably trying to rely upon. BUT the Regulations make it clear that this cannot be for handling that is not beyond what is necessary for assessing the suitability of the goods.The Regulation is as follows:
"R34( 9) If (in the case of a sales contract) the value of the goods is diminished by any amount as a result of handling of the goods by the consumer beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods, the trader may recover that amount from the consumer, up to the contract price."
So opening something to test it is not beyond what is necessary to establish the nature etc of the goods.
If a company withheld payment in such circumstances, complain to Trading Standards, raise with your credit card company and if necessary just pursue them in small claims court.
BUT if you have run the TV for 14 days, lost the manuals, thrown away packaging etc, expect to pay, this is reasonable.
So you can legally open and look at it and check it and get a full refund.

What happens when you play the lottery of DSE
or light bleeding?
All screens are different even when it's the same make and model.
I bought a Sony from Argos which had a severe cases of DSE I sent it back and got the same model and it was a lot better. Prime example of the tv lottery. Same applies for light bleeding around edges, some a lot worse than others.
Getting off your **** and looking in a shop at the tv doesn't change anything when it comes down to these two issues. Both are not classed as faults so AO and obviously this company won't help you.
I'd stick with a company like Amazon/Argos/JL/RS where returns and exchanges are easy.

I'm assuming these have the same returns policy as their operator, AO? Haven't checked.

AO have to abide by the consumer contracts regulations so if you receive the TV and you don't like it they have to take it back within 7 days for a full refund. Just make sure it is in 'new' condition and boxed.
