Open Question: what are my consumer rights online?

I recently bought a t-shirt and a hoodie from an online retailer. On the retailer's website it said that if I purchase one of their hoodie's I should choose the size up from the t shirt size I bought from them. Hence I bought a large size t-shirt and also ordered an XL hoodie. However, whilst the t shirt fits fine the hoodie is enormous compared to my other hoodies (all of which are size large). I went back to the retailer's website to see if I could exchange it for a smaller size, but on their refunds/exchanges section of the site it states that any returns/exchanges must be unworn and in their original sealed packaging. I've only tried the hoodie on just to see if it fits, as you would do in a shop, but when I contacted them about getting an exchange they said I wouldn't be able to exchange it. What are my rights? Can they do this? more

Resolved Question: Bike making a clunking noise?

My bike's started making a nasty noise. It sounds like it's coming from the bottom bracket, and I'd describe it as a heavy clicking. It only occurs at a low cadence and when I apply a lot of pressure, for example when pulling away from a stop line in a too high a gear. I've looked online (esp. the Sheldon Brown site) but no help so far. The bike's 9 months / 1500 miles old, and I've been very careful with it. Any ideas on what it could be before I take it to my local bike shop would be much appreciated. more

Voting Question: What should I call my shop?

Its a new online shop selling through a site called Folksy, similar to Etsy! Its selling handmade accessories like hippie style hairbands, fabric flower brooches/necklaces/hair accessories and clutch bags! They will be sort of bohemian chic in style and would like a name that reflects this style but is also easy to remember/memorable! One idea I had was Tiger Lily Accessories, I like it but would like a few more ideas as the flowers I make at the moment aren't very 'Lily' like so don't know if the name would confuse potential buyers? more

Resolved Question: Starting up an online store?

Hi there, I am currently employed and i have this plan is to start up an online store selling bridal accessories. I have carried out alot of research and have reached the stage where I want to kick start all of this. - Website, not a problem I will be able to build a e-commerce site by myself. - Hosting, I have sorted out I think i know the answers to these questions but I would like to be sure; 1) When my shop is ready, should I set it up to charge sales tax? 2) As I am employed already, would I need to inform the tax office that I am also self-employed? 3) Is it vital that I register the online store as a buinesss right away? 4) What would happen if I start selling through the site, recieving payments through paypal, would that get me in trouble because I never informed no one?

Resolved Question: Which laptop is best for me?

As a person who only uses her laptop for emailing friends, online shopping, I have a few music files that were given to me via messenger but I never download my own music or video files, I have saved photos in my pictures files and in my documents are my saved short stories and poems that I write, also my tournament pages as I host on a well-known Scrabble league site. Due to the fact, that my beloved laptop is nearing the end of its life as vertical stripped lines are constantly appearing (my techno guy has told me this is because of the graphics card is in a state of shock, after numerous karate kicks by my mother to the screen/lid of the laptop.) This is besides the point, am just wondering if its best for me to have a laptop custom made by my techno guy with my own specifications (but I must admit I have no idea on the specifications I need, I have no idea on how much memory, ram or megabytes I require) or if is it best that I buy a laptop from an online company eg:- Dell, which one is the best? for the requirements that I have shared with you.
