A recent survey revealed 95% or 14 billion dollars of returned electronic devices still actually work despite the reason for being returned.  Only 5% of the devices were actually broken.

68% of all returns work but, the customers aren't happy with them so they just make up a reason so they can return it.  Some say the complexity of todays electronics are to blame for these numbers.
