It seems the dabs take on distance selling regs is a little twisted:

"Unfortunately as the part has been opened we are unable to sell that
again with no loss to ourselves so we cannot comply with the Distance
Selling Regulation and sell on used parts."

So, you open the box, decide it's not what you want, tough crap. Apparently
you are supposed to use your "spidey sense" to see through the box.

I'll let you know how I get on, but I get this wonderful "here we go again"
feeling.

It's getting to the stage that I am almost considering not using online
retailers any more. It's reaching the stage now that you cna almost
guarantee bad customer service if there are any problems.
