Returning an Electric Shaver

Forums: Law
Email this Topic • Print this Page

I was once told by a store employee that the store does not accept returns of electric shavers because it is illegal for the store to resell a used shaver.

However, ebay permits used electric shavers to be sold on its site. Is there a public health risk? Legal risk?

1. You're not asking them to resell it. You're just asking for your money back

2. Tell him to show you the law that says that.

Thank you.

1. I assume that if the store may not resell it, it will not refund the purchase.

2. I can not find him. I suspect that there is a health related law or regulation prohibit such a resale.

Why do you want to return it? Is it defective?

Well, you've been told that by some store clerk. That wouldn't necessarily lead me to "suspect" it. I might in fact "suspect" quite the opposite, i.e., that there is no such law.

I wish to buy an electric shaver. I found a used one on eBay. I was wondering if there is any health or other reason not to buy it.

@gollum,

I see. Well, I aint no doctor, but I can't imagine what it would be. You can always "steam clean" the thing, if you're worried about germs, or something, eh?

You can use alcohol to clean a shaver, like barbers do.

As already mentioned twice, what would stop you from cleaning the damn blades?! Or buying a new set of blades for the electric shaver? They do sell them.
