Wow, only 30 days? That's very very low. REI and other stores here in the US offer up to a year no questions asked return policy.

I didn't realize how great that was compared to the UK!

REI is unusual, and famously gets returns on things like clothing and tents that have been used for months.

30 minimum required by law. Not maximum.

REI is unusually customer-friendly, because it's a consuner cooperative. Most US stores do not offer anything like a year no-questions-asked return policy (30 days, many-questions-asked is more typical.)
