So.

so you have to pay over and over.

I brought my portable vacuum after my mains one was causing problems not picking upo the dirt etc... there's was a split in the hose near the bottem that required a replacement. Then argos offered a part exchange so I upgraded.


Just get a new battery.

Have you ever bought a replacement battery for a power tool? Especially
one a few years old?

No never had to. I've only ever known one person to need a new battery
for their Apple laptop too and that was after 6 years.

You don't have much experience of laptops, then.

I don't worry
about buyoijng anew lump of cheese if the one in the fridge gets a bit
mouldy. I see every object as a disposable one. I can't think of
anything other than gold that lasts forever.

Good for you. Probably stems from being able to purchase things for your
employer. Doesn't matter if they are value for money.


in fact even your skin changes every month, or do you thinko you keep
yuor skin throught your life.

I don't pay for new skin.

Do you not buy products that have batteries in them, because they might
need replacing.

Not might. Will. But you are perfectly free to waste your money on
anything you want to.
