I know am prob BU but can I take this back?

[Missda]

In Jan Sales I brought a headband for my wedding it has diamantes all on it. I have not looked at it since I have brought it but during my hair trial yesterday I noticed 1 of the small diamantes are missing.

I am so disappointed and want to take it back but AIBU to do so?

It could have fallen out after you bought it.

I doubt they would take it back now don't receipts usually say you have 28 days to return?

Surely that it's not fit for purpose if it has already fallen out?

You can't prove it was damaged when you bought it and in my opinion too much time has elapsed.

How much did you pay for it?

How would you prove that it's not fallen out after? If it had fallen out before then you would not have bought it? Too much time has passed IMO.

Buy a little bag of diamantes on ebay and glue one one. No-one would notice.

I would take it back & explain that it's the first time you've properly looked at it to wear, so likely was damaged when you bought it. The worst they can say is tough luck, but they may offer a replacement or a suggestion of where to go to get it fixed. Hope you get sorted.

Would you Not have noticed it was missing when you bought it if it was?

£60 - Not masses of money but a lot of money for me... Never mind I will look into getting it fixed.

I'd try and take it back, if they have another one they might swap it, especially as it's for your wedding. You won't lose anything by asking.

I would definitely take it back. Even if it had fallen out after I wouldn't expect to pay £60 for something for it not to have lasted 3 months!

Yes I'd take it back and explain the situation. They might say no but maybe they'll take pity!

It depends where you have bought it from.
I've brought back clothes to John Lewis after a few months if they have fallen apart and have always had a refund. In my mind if you pay a reasonable amount of money for something then you expect it to last for at least a season.
