Reduce warranty to 90 day collect and return (you still have a 12 month warranty, but they will only do free collection and delivery for warranty repairs/replacement during the first three months)

Re: the warranty - once you add this to your basket and look at System Details it states that BOTH the service AND the warranty are 90 days only.

pre-reg

it is 90 days collect and return...the product does still have its 12 months standard warrenty.

Thanks - appreciate the clarification. Has anyone actually bought something with 90 day CAR and then managed to get it fixed under warranty after this 90 days??

Roger_Rampant

I know people that have, but they had to pay for collection and delivery...

tonyg_2

hmmm.... and Dell's delivery doesn't come very cheap. And if they charge for this both ways ...ouch!! Suppose i could pay using my own carrier for sending it back but not return...

and that might be rather expensive because (and I may be mistaken so correct me if I'm wrong ) it has to go back to Ireland, I think. Carrier shipping to Ireland certainly ain't cheap.

...and that is why the whole deal is cheap, because you'll be looking at Dells standard £57 to ship it back to you and that's after you've paid £17.63 to ship to NI (and that's only insured cover for £100)(parcel2go)

On Ebay people are reselling these with the benefit of whatever Dell warranty they bought them with (either the basic 90 days or the full expensive 3 year version). Is this allowed and can a 2nd buyer actually claim under the warranty ? I would not want to resell offering this if it does not work. Equally trying to sell with no warranty is hopeless.
