As far as I'm aware, all retailers of electrical items are obliged by law to take back recycled old/broken items if they sell the same product, that's the whole reason for the charge in the first place. The shop where you buy your new product has to take the old one from you, or if you are not buying a new product take the old one back to where you purchased it. They are not allowed to refuse you.
