剛剛看見美國 Amazon 提供電子書 7 天退款服務(實體書30天),
但 Google Android 卻僅有提供雞肋的 15 分鐘退款,
同樣都是美國廠商為什麼 Amazon 可以做到 7 天,但 Google 卻不行。
Amazon 這樣做根本不怕別人「看完就退」,
因為 Amazon 知道只要提供高品質的電子書,消費者根本不會退款。
相反的 Google 不好好審核 Android 軟體品質,
反而想要用苛刻的退款機制(15分鐘),獲取從低劣軟體來的不義之財。
Google 應該要和 Amazon 電子書之退款機制看齊,
儘速遵守台灣的法律,給予台灣消費者 7 天退款服務。
不要整天恐嚇台灣人民說要關閉 Android market,
Amazon 做得到 Google 也行。
以下為 Amazon 電子書的退款機制:(來自官網)
---------
Returning Kindle Content
「Any content you purchase for Kindle from the Kindle Store is eligible for return and refund if we receive your request within 7 days of the date of purchase. Once a refund is issued, you will no longer have access to the item. To request a refund and return, click the Customer Service button in the Contact Us box in the right-hand column of this page to reach us via phone or e-mail. Please make sure to include the title of the item you wish to return in your request. 」

-----------
在補充一點此條款只適用購自 "Kindle Store " 的電子書、軟體。
雖然給PC、MAC 個人電腦用的下載軟體,因為還沒有類似 DRM 的機制,
Amazon 無法確認民眾退款後是否真的刪除軟體,所以還無法退錢。
這還可以理解。
但 Android 不同,因為有和 Amazon Kindle 類似的保護機制,
使用者皆必須刪除或停用軟體才可以退款。
Google 完全沒有理由縮減退款時間到 15 分鐘,
不管於情於法皆不合理。
Android 裝置的競爭對手 iPad、Kindle,
皆可提供 7天 以上的退款時間。
而 Google 卻反其道而行,
從原先的24小時,縮短到 15 分鐘,
實在是罔顧消費者的權益。

我連過去連結看了一下
似乎不是所有的都可以無條件退
amazon有提到 不是直接由amazon提供的,而是from seller,那就要連絡seller,並
according to the seller's return guidelines
這麼一來 似乎跟google的做法沒甚麼兩樣
樓主要仔細看清楚一點嗎?

不過 因為我英文不是很好
若是裡面有我理解錯誤的地方 尚請見諒
你看錯地方了,
官網的退貨條款總共有四個段落。
分別為:
1. Returning Kindle (電子書"閱覽器"退貨)
2. Returning Kindle Content(電子書籍退貨)
3. Returning Kindle Gift Content (贈品電子書籍退貨)
4. Warranty Service (保固服務)
你看到的是第一段主要是說
如果從 Amazon 買電子書閱覽器 (Kindle) 可以有 30 天退貨期限,
但如果是從其他第三方的業者,則依照所購買商家的規定。
這篇文章主要使探討電子書籍的退貨機制,而不是電子書閱覽器(如iPad、kindle),
所以你應該是要看第二大段才對(Returning Kindle Content)
