If a product is faulty it goers back to the manufacter for replacement NOT the store, as where you brought it should be irrelivant. If a product is faulty it goes back to the store from which you bought it. You have no contract with the manufacturer. A friend had a canon camecoder 500i that was sent back to canon under guarantee NOT to the store. That may well be the case in that situation. However, the legal responsibility belongs to the merchant it was bought from. How does a merchant know how long any product will last ? They dont. They do have some idea. Only once they have been selling them for a while and so know what the warranty claim rate has turned out to be. They still have a legal obligation to repair or replace it if it fails within a reasonable time for that particular type of item. And who sets that time ? Ultimately the legal system used if the manufacturer refuses to honour the warranty claim. Usually the small claims system in many jurisdictions. So laptop is expected to last rather longer than say a pair of flip flops. So flip flops don;t have a warrenty is that it ? Corse they have a warranty. Its just not as long as a laptop has. If a manufactuer guarantees a product for life then why should they merchant support it for life ? Because when something is guaranteed for life by the manufacturer, the merchant can claim off the manufacturer when they get a customer returning a failed product that has a lifetime guarantee. So which products have a lifetime guarantee ? That varys. At one time some floppy disks had one and a mate of mine used to save up the ones that had failed, take them to a trade show and get the goon in the fancy clothes fronting the manufacturers booth to replace the failed ones. It's a con that you've fallen for Nope. as most people have to. Wrong, as always. |

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. No they wouldn't In his situation, they are. 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) yuo can buty applecare cheaper than apple sells it. You can go to anothe rcompany to buy applecare and teh computer is still covered by apple. |

They were suprised too, expecting the bloke fixing it to say your not covered by warrenty these two boards will cost you £xxxx But no he said as it's lightning we'll just replace the boards without charge, as it was a board swap a new TV would have been differnt, they never recieved a bill or anyone asking for payment so he must have been telling the truth or didn;t know what he was doing. |

The one referred to in the second para above. the 2nd would be the shop where you brought it. You're talking about how the item gets to the consumer, not the CONTRACT. what contract ? The one referred to in the second para above. You are not Sony, and Currys are not Sony. The only contract that would be created is between you and Currys, so Sony would not be a party to the contract. currys would if the TV needed repair. Again, nothing to do with the CONTRACT. what contract ? The one referred to in the second para above and just above. |

But as far as I am aware no one offered a lifetime guarantee on 5.25" floppys, only some of the 3.5" floppys. or will the shop that sold them do that. ? Them too, but they just get they replaced by the manufacturer. |

Even you should have noticed that if you only wear it one day a year, say to the Xmas party, it will last a tad longer than if you deliver catalogs to letter boxes and do that 5 days a week, for 80 hours a week. So your lifetime ends after a few weeks of delivering such things. Its the lifetime of the sandal, you pathetic excuse for a work bludging troll. |

That has a real cost to the retailer, even if the manufacturer does cover the refund or replacement. But all warrenties deal with teh product not the person selling it. Legally your warranty rights are with the operation that sold you the item. The warrenties deal with anyhting regarding a fault in manufactiuring, it wopn;t iusualy be the shops fault if a product goes wrong. Irrelevant to who your warranty rights are with. So flip flops don;t have a warrenty is that it ? Corse they have a warranty. Its just not as long as a laptop has. So what is the warrenty on flip flops ? What is a reasonable time for it to last with the statutory warranty. So what does the statutory warranty say regarding flip flops ? Same as it does with everything else, it if fails before time at which you can reasonably expect that type of product to last for, you have the right to have THE SELLER, replace it with a working product or give you a full refund of what you paid for that item, and in some jurisdictions that choice is the buyers, not the sellers. https://www.rainbowsandals.com/custo...ime)-guarantee See what the lifetime warrenty actually means. That is just what THAT PARTICULAR lifetime guarantee actually means and says nothing useful what so ever about the STATUTORY warranty. It is in ADDITION to the statutory warranty. So no use then is it. Corse it is if the strap pulls out of the sole or breaks with the sole still fine and you are in Britain so the postage isnt too bad. for a lifetime ? Until the sole has worn out, as it says. Do sandels even live or have a life or is it the users lifetime ? Until the sole has worn out, as it says. If for example the sole of the rainbow sandal only lasts a week with normal use being worn about the house and work during that week, you have the legal right to have the sandals replaced regardless of what Rainbow Sandals say there. Yes the warrenty sets out teh rules for replacing things. so tell me how long this lifetime is then. It tells you, the life of the sole in that particular case. SO what is the life of teh sole. Until the sole has worn out, as it says. can you give a figure. Obviously not, it depends on how its used. Even you should have noticed that if you only wear it one day a year, say to the Xmas party, it will last a tad longer than if you deliver catalogs to letter boxes and do that 5 days a week, for 80 hours a week. So your lifetime ends after a few weeks of delivering such things. Its the lifetime of the sandal, you pathetic excuse for a work bludging troll. So why do they only mention the sole, Because that is what they use to determine when the warranty stops, when the sole has worn out. So only the sole is the warranty for life. Even sillier and more pig ignorant than you usually manage. Id the strapo breaks tough **** as it's not guetenteed for life is it. The warranty says the exact opposite, you stupid clown. While ever the SOLE has not worn out, you get new sandals whenever the strap comes out of the sole, or breaks etc. And since this mindless silly **** is the best you can manage, here goes the chain in the rest of your even more mindless silly ****. |
