Warranty not honoured
Bought a brand new & unused (still sealed) pair of Aeropex AS800 off of an eBay shop in May 2021 and I registered them right away, in order to validate the 2 year manufacturer warranty. They failed to work in March 2022, but not a problem (or so I thought) they’re covered by a 2yr warranty from the manufacturer. I sent in the report using their website, with screen grab of my warranty registration. I was informed that because I hadn’t bought them from an authorised seller (as listed on their website) that they wouldn’t honour the warranty. I did challenge this but got nowhere. Surely, the warranty is to do with the quality of manufacture, and wherever you buy from it won’t alter the quality control etc. when they’re manufactured? I also think it is unreasonable to expect anyone to trawl a manufacturers website before purchase to see if they’re buying from the right place. Having previously had this issue, why don’t Aftershokz raise this at the time of registering the warranty, so you can return the item if needs be (it should be made clear on the packaging!)
