Hi

Yesterday I bought a Samsung Note 8.0 16GB 3G , brand new from MBK.

Unknown to me today, after telling my parents I was looking for a tablet, today they went and bought me an Ipad which was considerably more expensive. I didn't want to tell them I had already bought one so my plan is to somehow take back the Note.

Do I stand any chance of returning it to the shop?

If I don't where would be the best place to sell it and how much would I likely lose on it, even though it is 1 day old and still has 1 year warranty

Thanks

You don't mention which shop you bought it from - there are many in MBK. My first reaction, if you have carefully saved the box and all of the packaging, would be to suggest that you repackage it nicely, return it to the shop and see if they will give you all or most of your money back. The bigger the shop and the better the condition the box and packing materials are in, the better your chances. If the shop won't take it back then you could sell it as a used item. Most likely the lower the price the quicker the sale. Good luck!

It's going to be up to the shop if they will let you return it. I doubt they will. You are probably going to have to sell it. Try to get the best deal you can for it. Try the classifieds here. Craigslist is popular. Then, post it on the relevant facebook pages (ie: Bangkok Expats, DS Bangkok, etc.)

It was AOB Mobile. It's still in its packaging unused, except for the plastic film it was wrapped in, as the shop opened it to put on a protective screen

In that case, I think that there's a good chance that the shop will let you return it, especially if you agree to let them refund less than what you paid for it. The shop can sell it again as an unused but opened item. You didn't say how much you paid for it but a thousand-baht loss might be acceptable if you don't want to go through the hassle of advertising it and selling it yourself. You can decide which is most valuable to you - the time or the money. Good luck!

Keep in mind that it sells for 12,350 on Lazada. You would have to go lower than that if you were to sell it yourself. It's a nice machine though. Please PM me if you must sell it on your own. Maybe we can make a deal.

It's all in Thai, so you need to speak/read Thai or get some help.

7-8k it's actual price unless shop agree to take it back. You need bargain several thousands thb to attract potential buyer.

They said they couldn't give me full refund but 10,000 instead

Perfect, more than you able to sell it second-hand.

Any electronic or mobile device out of shop/open/used 5 min will lost about 20% immediately.

Next time buy from a proper shop that follows Thai law.. 7 days return as long as like new. Tesco lotus. Powerbuy etc

I think Thai law says you can exchange it within 7 days if defective. After that you need to give it for repair. No way any shop will allow you to return it for a full refund even shops like powerbuy etc.
