Hi all

I tried out a Steel Silver for a couple of days to decide if I want it versus the Graphite. Both very beautiful watches but in the end I decided to return the Silver... however I can say without looking at it there's going to be micro-scuffs/scratches. It's just a fairly soft steel.

With that in mind, surely it's impossible to return a steel Apple Watch in pristine condition if you wear it for any amount of time? So is this one area where Apple especially lenient? Their shops are super bright so if they are being picky you can bet they'll spot something.

Second... Since many people are no doubt returning non-perfect devices what on earth does Apple do with them all? Surely they aren't resold as-is?

Thanks!

[UPDATE: I returned it yesterday. Guy barely looked at it. He explained they break it down and recycle. That's a shame :/]

As the title states I bought an Apple Watch 17 days ago? And I would like to return it but I guess Best Buy only has a 15 day return policy. I didn’t know this until today so I was hoping that to get the return somehow but the sales consultant just recommended that I “flip” the Apple Watch.

There’s nothing wrong with the watch, I just want my money back. It doesn’t serve the need that I wanted it for which is to track my workouts. When I track my workouts it doesn’t feel good so I want to return it.

I honestly think that it’s murder to have a 15 day return policy, it’s so damn short of a time frame.

My son came home 2 weeks ago from his shopping trip. I then noticed he had an apple watch he was messing with. Well, long story short he got a lesson in why you don't buy yourself gifts before Christmas. He went in 2 days later to try to return it and they said they can't. It's been opened and out of the box for maybe 5 mins. He has the receipt.

Apparently he went to return it, they said is anything wrong with it. He said no, and they said it's not returnable.

I cannot find anything about apple products having a no refund. The most I can find is the 30day policy on electronics which states you can return if you are unhappy with your purchase.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Edit to clarify a few things.

1. My son bought the watch not knowing I got him one for Christmas. I can't normally afford these types of gifts so he had no reason to suspect I had gotten him one.

2. I bought the one I got in October on sale on Amazon. It is past the return date unfortunately.

3. I understand if it can't be done, I am not trying to be difficult, or trying to scam walmart or anything. I am feeling (unreasonably I am sure, but none the less) guilty about the situation. It's out of my feeling bad that I am trying to figure it out. I should probably let him solve through this himself, he's 19 and these are life lessons he should learn. He already feels really bad about it lol.

ive opened it and kept all of the packaging but i have used it and set it up

I purchased an apple watch 9 on prime day but decided to return it.

Unlike other normal products, it won't give me a return options on websites so I had to talk to a customer representative.

The thing is what I was told from them. Although I purchased it on Amazon, they told me I need to talk to apple. I really thought it did not make sense. I asked them double check if it was true and they said it was.

They gave me a link for the apple support and Im still looking for how to return on apple website. So ridiculous..

Have any of you purchased an Apple Watch and been unhappy with the colour? I purchased the project red one a couple of days ago and I’m not sure if I like the colour, and if I decide down the road to get an additional strap for it the amount of red straps is very few. Does anyone have any experience in returning one for a different colour? I’m in the uk if that matters and I purchased it 2 days ago

Spoke with an Apple customer service rep who said that an in-store purchase can be returned for up to 30 days with no issue and that every Apple Store would honor this.

I purchased an iPhone 16 Pro a couple weeks ago just to try out the smaller size before I decided which 17 Pro to order (been using the Max for years). I totally forgot that the phones are only available for pre-order at first though, so needed a little extra time on my current device. I’ll return it after I switch everything over from the new one.

Either way I’m fine because I have the recorded call confirming I’m good. Just curious about everyone else’s experience.

I've got one at Bestbuy but I am not entirely sure if I will keep it.

I also wanted a SS version but want to give Sport a try.

Anyone had any idea or experience in returning the apple watch to Bestbuy once the box is opened and it's been used, within 14 days?

Thanks!

I am looking at the webpage for an apple watch. It specifically states:

Return policy

• Return within Return or replace anytime.

• Returnable to club? Yes

Is this true?

Apple Watches can be returned or replaced at any time?

Thank You
