Who knows about the trade laws in Prague?

I brought an unworn item to return to the store, to which they said: "we will not refund you in cash, it is written on the receipt, we will return the amount to the store card, it is valid for a year." Can the store set such rules? Can I insist on a refund despite the store's internal policies, as I feel I should have the right to get my money back, and it seems like I am being forced to make a purchase?

And how many days have passed since the purchase?

@Anita: You can only return items ordered online within 14 days. Everything purchased in regular stores is at the seller's discretion.

@Anita: You wrote it correctly. If online, then 14 days without a reason, if in-store, then at the discretion of the shop.

@Niko: As far as I know, returns of unworn items with tags in the Czech Republic are made within 30 days. That's why I wrote that it's less. And about the days, the store didn't count at all; the first phrase without looking at the receipt was - okay, we just won't refund you the money.

If you are buying in person, the rules are set by the seller

Yes, each store here sets its own rules. I remember being outraged about this 3 years ago. Now I clarify their rules every time before making a purchase if it's an unfamiliar store and I anticipate that there might be a return.
