They didn't ask for a deposit, but did they ask you to sign something? Assuming they did, whatever it was, read it and see what obligations you committed to.
If they didn't ask you to sign anything they haven't got a leg to stand on. And even if you did, they should have some sort of return policy that you might be able to invoke "a priori."
In any event, you shouldn't be expected to accept damaged goods even if it is only the packaging that appears to be damaged.
It seems like you're in the position of strength here; doesn't make a lot of sense for the store to get aggressive with you if they really want to save the sale.
