It's not a matter of using the light. It's more of seeing how the screen looks without the light. We already know it's OK with the light on.

Also returns are a pain. Amazon can kill your account without warning if they decide it's one too many returns. Others will want shipping paid for or not take a return at all unless it's a faulty item. If I order direct from Kobo in Ireland I'd have to ship it back to the Netherlands, after getting their permission. |

Not wanting to risk a significant chunk of money until you have more information on a product is suddenly old-man-yelling-at-cloud? Okay then.

Of the 4 people I know who have had their Amazon account suspended over returns, only one was unable to have the suspension lifted. Perhaps his habit of purchasing ebooks, downloading them, stripping the DRM, saving the resulting ebook and then returning them had something to do with this. Surprisingly() Amazon takes notice when you have purchased and returned several hundred ebooks over a 4 month period while rarely even starting to read any of them.

Doing a credit card chargeback might get you banned from Amazon (and many other sites too). Chargeback is not something you do lightly though, a last resort.

Indeed it was. Evidently as part of departing from Mobileread, Claude_C decided to edit some of their recent messages.
