For instance, if you purchased a phone that came with free promotional headphones, you will need to return both the phone and the headphones in the same condition as they arrived.
If your product was bundled with a digital product or any other unreturnable item such as a gift card or computer software, you will only need to return the returnable product. The value of any unreturnable item will be automatically deducted from the amount we credit you.
