Testing prior to paying

Why is it that electronics bought in the mall cannot be tested prior to paying for it? you must first pay for it before testing. isn't it the customer's right to know that the goods/materials he is buying is in good condition? what if the person still lives in al khor and bought a material in villagio and seldom goes in the city for a walk and it happens that material he bought is not working well??

well...well...well...

Milky, sure they dont even consider exchange for a new one.

They are so adament, that the same will be repaired and

given back. 1 riyal bulb they test and give but 1000 riyal

electronics is covered under warranty, safe way of saving

their skin or duping or what ever you call it.

There is warranty on all electronics, thats about it here in Qatar, which means they might exchange the goods but will never refund..:(
