State this proactively to strengthen your return claim. Showing the item is unused and in original packaging makes the shop assistant more willing to accept the return and often speeds up the process.

Qué significa

'Ancora' means 'still' here (not 'yet' as in a negative sentence). 'Nella' is a contraction of 'in + la'. 'Confezione originale' is the standard phrase for original packaging in Italian retail contexts.
