They count it from their date. If you send it back to them, then it's from their date, but if you take it back to the shop you buy ift from, the date is from your day of purchase.

1249894 2011-12-21 21:19:00 I bet the real reason for a 1 year warranty is that the profit margin is so low, they simply dont want to have to deal
with warranties after 1 year
As Wainuitech says, it's because a lot of shops are dodgy ^$##*'s. And are ripping you off.
They get a replacement for sure....no cost except perhaps a bit of NZ freight.
