The Consumer Contracts Regulations mean you can. If you've bought something online or over the phone then you have at least seven days from your receipt of it to cancel the contract and send it back. Sometimes you may be liable for the return shipping cost, but if you will be then this needs to have been made clear in advance. If it wasn't then you aren't. Any shipping cost liability has to be compared with what it would have cost you (time and transport) to get to a shop, of course.
Those of us who were brought up not to 'mess traders about' might feel that it would be unreasonable to send something back because it turns out we just don't like it. The next generations, and the traders themselves it seems, regard it as perfectly normal though.
