A representative from The Book People goes to one of the baby groups that my wife frequents, and every now and then she picks up a bargain. I can't fault them as a company for what they do, for example, she recently bought a box set of 15 Roald Dahl books for £16:
Roald Dahl Collection - 15 Books by Roald Dahl - the Book People
However, she showed me one of her recent purchases the other day and rather annoyingly she had taken it upon herself to buy my brother a book for Christmas. Whilst a lovely thought, I pointed out that we weren't buying him anything this year and just buying something for his baby (an agreement between us).
She is going to ask on Wednesday if she can return it (exactly seven days after receiving it), but it got me thinking. Do the distance selling regulations cover you when you buy through an independent distributor/rep like this?
