That won't explain why you opened the box.

But at least in the US, places like Staples have a 14-day no questions 
asked refund policy on certain electronics. When the office router 
appeared to be fadin' fast, we bought one at Staples, used it until it 
was obvious that it was not the router but Verizon and returned it 
thereafter. No problem.

If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will
scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will
refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something
which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he
will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is
explained in this way. - Bertrand Russell
