I am a housewife visiting Hawaii for the first time. I was approached by a store in the Sheraton Hotel in Waikiki and purchased a beauty product.
A friend of mine who lives in Hawaii checked and found that it was available on Amazon for about 60% of the price, so I went to Amazon the day after I purchased it to ask for a return, but was told that I could not because the receipt from the purchase said it was non-returnable. I regret my poor English and the fact that I bought the product without reading and understanding it well, but I was shocked because I had heard that there are more laws protecting consumers in the U.S. than in Japan. Is it absolutely impossible to return or refund in such a case ?
Please let me know if you know anything about this.

Dear all
I was so excited that I made a mistake in the store information, so I am correcting it.
The store was TRUFFOIRE at the Hyatt Regency. Please be careful.

My husband is not a doctor, but he has doctor in his title.
Doctors are not only doctors, so it may not be that I lied
I'll just mention that.
It is often the case that the back-to-back commercial products are several percent cheaper on Amazon, and many of the products sold in Hawaii have a shipping
surcharge, so it is not always possible to say ! that they are bottled up.
Even Burger King, for example, costs a few dollars more in Hawaii than 2 for 7 on the mainland.
When I used to live in Guam, a guy who worked at DFS told me that the transportation costs between Hawaii and Guam are higher
than those in Hawaii.

Here is where to file a complaint with the Consumer Center of Hawaii.
Why don't you file a complaint ?
Don't cry and see what you can do !
Good luck with your return.
