Again, Staples sold me a defective product; and is hiding behind the day return policy. I attempted to return and resolve within the day window, Staples representatives recommended I determine it was not a problem with internet service provider. Once that was determined I was outside the day return policy. I have done everything Staples has recommended, they need to contact ** to coordinate a replacement computer for me. I have been patient, but this needs to be resolved by Staples, along with **. We have been loyal customers for a number of years and do not understand why it is so difficult doing business with them concerning this defective product
