1.1 You may return or exchange once (subject to stock availability) any Merchandise (which shall include Excluded Items) within 7 days of its delivery to you or its collection under the in-store collection
service (as the case may be) if the Merchandise is faulty or damaged and such fault or damage is not caused by normal wear and tear nor by improper use or storage after its delivery to or collection by you.

Purchase Condition within 7 days of its delivery to you or its collection under the in-store collection service (as the case may be), in each case together with the original invoice, product guarantee, sale
