| 556288 | 2007-06-07 09:22:00 | Hi Billy T . Would you be willing to translate the below for the stupid( yes thats me) Sure: CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS FOR CONSUMERS WHO ARE COVERED BY CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS OR REGULATIONS IN THEIR COUNTRY OF PURCHASE OR, IF DIFFERENT, THEIR COUNTRY OF RESIDENCE, THE BENEFITS CONFERRED BY THIS WARRANTY ARE IN ADDITION TO ALL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CONVEYED BY SUCH CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS AND REGULATIONS . If you have better consumer protection laws in your Country, you'll get better warranty protection than we are prepared to offer over here in Apple Land . SOME COUNTRIES, STATES AND PROVINCES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS ON THE DURATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU . Your laws may not let us cop out of our obligations . If you live in one of those damned Countries, you have us by the short and curlies . THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY BY COUNTRY, STATE OR PROVINCE . THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE COUNTRY IN WHICH THE PRODUCT PURCHASE TOOK PLACE . APPLE, No matter what we say or think here in Apple Land, your Country's consumer protection laws may trump our terms and conditions, and if they do, it will definitely be our short and curlies that get the tug, not yours . THE WARRANTOR UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, IS IDENTIFIED AT THE END OF THIS DOCUMENT ACCORDING TO THE COUNTRY OR REGION IN WHICH THE PRODUCT PURCHASE TOOK PLACE . Your local warranty agent is listed in the fine print . Good luck with your purchase and thank you for falling for our persuasive marketing campaign . That's it in a nutshell Plod . Put even simpler in fifteen words or less, it means: "We surrender, you win, if it breaks we'll fix or replace it . " Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 556289 | 2007-06-07 09:59:00 | Thanks to both Billy T and Trev. I appreciate your help and I will certainly look at the sites you both mention. The trouble is trying to understand the information which is vague and subject to interpretation. Sorry I haven't been more prompt with my replies on here but I lost my broadband cable with Telestra once again and have just got it back. Cheers. | Pato (2463) | ||

Sorry I haven't been more prompt with my replies on here but I lost my broadband cable with Telestra once again and have just got it back. Cheers. Its vague for a reason, and this is due to there being different quality of goods around. eg. If you purchased one of those cheap $60 DVD players from the warehouse, you wouldn't expect that it would last as long as a pioneer DVD player for about $200. The consumer magazine has an article in one of their magazines, with a list of products, and the expected reasonable life time of them that would be covered by the CGA |
