There is a fairly simple concept in law, that you can't bind a
third party to the terms of a contract that they have not signed
and have not even seen.

Who's the 3rd party ?

If you bought a Sony TV from Currys, then Sony would be a 3rd party.

And yuo still have to abide by the T&Cs of teh product and the
comnpany which is why htye put teh viuod if removed stickers on
things.

Huh?

If a manufacturer is going to promote a product as having a
lifetime guarantee, they will also have to come to an arrangement
with the retailers to provide cover for that, otherwise the
retailer would be reluctant to sell it.

So why send a product back to apple via applecare when you can get PC
woprld to sort it ?

Because PC world and apple will agree that apple will handle all returns
etc. Without that agreement the responsibility would remain with PC
world, and apple would be within their rights to tell you to go take a
hike.

(however apple don't work like that, and tend to dislike resellers and
distributors unless they add significant value)
