nounpl: no-return sales
venda sem direito de devolução
1. A sale in which the buyer cannot return or exchange the merchandise after purchase, regardless of condition or reason
This clearance item is a no-return sale, so please inspect it carefully before buying.

In Brazil, no-return sales are commonly used in outlet stores, clearance sections, and e-commerce during flash sales. Retailers use this policy to reduce costs and clear inventory. Consumers are expected to accept the item's condition upon purchase. This practice is strictly regulated in both Brazil and Portugal by consumer protection laws, which may override such policies in certain situations (defective products, misleading descriptions).
