Stardock offering a direct refund for games not directly purchased from them is good customer service.  Asking you to pay return shipping costs isn't exactly unreasonable here.  With most games this isn't even an option.

As an alternative you could return the game to the place you purchased it from and see if they will offer you a refund.

Just send them your game, get your money, quit crying and get off these forums.

most of the games i buy work

na i would say all of them except this one

Wait. A game company is actually taking the game back and refunding you your money even though you bought it from a Retail location? I actually work in Retail, nine times out of ten, you're politely told to sod off and these guys are actually getting you your money back? What is the actual problem?

How is the Customer Service bad? The product isn't working as you hope and they're giving you a refund. They need proof you actually paid for the game. Since you no longer want it, you have to give back their product. So where exactly is the customer service terrible?

Well, look at this, not only does he fail at saying anything even remotely coherent but he's too broke to pay $3 to get $40 to $50 back. On top of that he's too stupid to keep his receipt for a game that he finds terrible right out of the box. Probably dropped it in the parking lot on his way to his bike cuz he was looking at QoT too long and got distracted.

The refund policy on retail copies has been clearly outlined to you in the email you received from Melissa.  If you are unwilling to take the steps above, then nothing else can be done and you have chosen to keep the game and not seek the refund.

 95% of the time retail won't let you return a game (and without a receit, FORGET IT).  SD posts EVERY day; has already given more updates in less than a month than most game companies give in a games entire lifespan; lets you return their games for a refund (yes, you have to pay the shipping [e digicons]X([/e] ).  And figures if you hate the game so much, and returned it, they should not have to keep you on THEIR forums.  I use to work in retail and the best thing to do with customers like you it to give them their refund; get them out the door; and if they cry "I'll never shop here again", say "We were hoping you would'nt". 

You think if you were able to get a refund at a retail store they let you sit in the store and cry/wine/complain about the game for anouther month or two?  No, they'd say "you got your refund, now get out".

If you can't even afforad $3, then how can you affoard your computer; monitor; or monthly ISP?  Or are you one of those people that is always complaining about the econemy/prices of things, but always seems to have plenty of beer/cigerettes. . .

I honestly doubt your sincerity when you say you can't pay $3 to ship a box back that you paid $40 for a few weeks back. If money is so tight, you should probably re-evaluate your spending priorities because gaming is generaly an expensive hobby.

That, or you can stop making crap up just so you can whine on the forums and look like an idiot. Your choice

Fallen89, there seems to be something wrong with your keyboard. Your words are missing letters, capitalization and your sentences are missing punctuation and many of them start or end with "lol".
