How does a merchant know how long any product will last ?

Here are a couple of reasonable summaries of the UK law:

For transactions before 1st Oct 2015 the Sale of Goods act would apply:

For ones after, the Consumer Rights Act:

http://www.which.co.uk/consumer-righ...mer-rights-act

Note that both include words to the effect: "Your rights are against the
retailer (the company that sold you the product) not the manufacturer,
and so you must make any claim against the retailer."

and that's the con.
If yuor retailer is selling lifetime bulbs why does it matter when you brought them ?
