It's not too bad price wise, I spotted one from Casey's through Amazon for £399.95 but when you add postage you're not saving much at all. Also you run the risk that there may be a fault ( unlikely but it's always possible ). If I were you I'd stick with what you've got and pray for a dry day to test pitch it.

Dance before the storm and don't look back to where you've been.
If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs, you obviously haven't grasped the gravity of the situation.
I don't want it I just need it.

Personally, I wouldn't trust the "It has been checked by store and no faults could be found." bit. Definitely get it pitched and checked over yourself, in time to return it (if need be) within the 28 days.
If it's perfect, then you have yourself a bargain, I'd have thought.
If it has a loose toggle, or a missing peg elastic, the bargain still stands.
If, however, it looks used, abused, damaged ( rips? Broken zips? stitching coming undone/strained, broken/bent pole(s) etc.) then obviously it needs a refund.
It could be said that GO's check wasn't very thorough.
It could be said that the previous owners actually used it, broke a zip (eg), nicked the pegs, and took the chance on taking it back!
Like I say... trust no one! 
Let us know how you get on, and hopefully we'll all be congratulating you on your new bargain tent!
