The process for returning an item to Apple depends on the item and when it was purchased. Here is some information on the refund and return policy for Apple products:

Refund and return policy: Apple has a 14-day return policy for products purchased directly from Apple, either online or in-store. If you return an item within 14 days of purchase, Apple will provide a full refund.
Expiration of 14-day return policy: If the 14-day return policy has expired, Apple's standard return policy applies. In this case, you may still be able to exchange the item or receive a partial refund, depending on the product and the condition in which it was returned.
Returning items purchased online to a physical Apple store: Yes, it is possible to return an item purchased online to a physical Apple store.
Processing time for refunds: The time it takes for Apple to process a refund can vary, but it typically takes 5-7 business days for the funds to be credited back to your original payment method.
Full refund: Whether you will receive a full refund for your returned item depends on the item, the condition in which it was returned, and when it was purchased. If you return the item within 14 days of purchase and it is in its original condition, you will receive a full refund. If the item was purchased outside of the 14-day return policy or if it is not in its original condition, you may receive a partial refund.
