> Hello,

> Does anyone here know how to get a refund on the Windows Tax in Belgium?
>
> From what I've read, in most countries, people looking for a refund go to
> the manufacturer, but this can often be a very frustrating process. In
> England and Wales however the Sale of Goods Act 2002 allows you to ask the
> retailer for a replacement or refund for specific defective items in a
> batch of goods, an EULA you didn't agree to at purchase being just such a
> defective item. I've read that people have got refunds from retailers like
> amazon.co.uk under this legislation without any fuss.

> So what would be the best course of action in Belgium? The software in

> expensive offering. Would I actually get enough money back to make it worth
> all the hard work?
