Long story short. After a lengthy and heated argument, the store gave me my money back. No is not an answer I'm prepared to except in these situations ;-)

I'll be buying the 3D/2D set tomorrow with hopefully better results. I have my doubts that it will really be any better. To clarify, I take it we've been so far discussing the US Blu-Ray sets. So the UK 3D/2D might be just as bad or worse? Any info on that around the interwebz??

I'd imagine this is going to be the biggest selling Blu-Ray of the year so returns are gonna be plentiful, even given the fact that 99% of people couldn't give a sh*t how a movie looks.
