Well, I messed up the focusing screen on my Canon DSLR with a ham fisted cleaning attempt not covered by warranty. Was a simple matter of sending it to the Canon Authorised Service Centre and paying then £30 for a replacement screen (fitted). Sapphire will also carry out non-warranty repairs for a fee (although in that case it involves shipping to HK)... Theres too much of a throwaway culture these days (God I'm getting old, LOL)

There are companies that carry out paid repairs and sell spares, I don't deny that, but the practice of catering [only] to the throwaway culture is as much institutionalised. I had this GeForce GTX 260 imported from Europe, which came with a broken cooler. I approached every NVIDIA partner there is, and nobody was inclined to sell me a spare cooler. Because I imported it, I couldn't use the warranty. Checkmate. The next thing to do was to import a more expensive, compatible third-party cooler. The two lived happily ever after.

Ah, the grey import rears its ugly... I just sent back a camera because it turned out to be a Japanese market model for the very reason that Canon UK refused to register it. After spending £750 I wasn't prepared to risk the "sellers" warranty, and forked out the extra £70 for the peace of mind. But I digress...

Yes, it's a gray import, but the point I was trying to make is that the consumer is powerless if he wants spare parts or paid service. The situation would have been the same, if I bought the product from here, and its warranty expired.

Only solution is to boycott such manufacturers....As I said, last time I checked Sapphire will do paid repairs. Whether or not they make economic sense is another matter.

be prepared, then, to boycott 90% of PC hardware manufacturers . . . Intel, AMD, ASUS, Creative, nVidia, ATI, Gigabyte, ABIT, MSI, OCZ, PNY . . .


. . . just to name a few.
