| 1409076 | 2015-10-01 04:23:00 | Well, I took it back to Mitre 10 and the young lady on the Returns Counter remembered me from my previous visit when the replacement was provided. She called up a technical person to validate my complaint and he understood the issue and suggested a replacement. I declined that offer on the basis that two in a row from their stock was a fairly good indication that there was a batch fault, so I opted for a refund rather than replacement. The young lady did not have authority to issue refunds, so another senior person was called out and she promptly offered me a store credit rather than a refund! That p'd me off considerably because she should have known better, and I told her so in as many words. I got the refund, and I am now on a search for a decent Dremel on Trade Me because I can't justify the expense of a higher specced unit. During this saga I discovered that all Dremels come with just one (aluminium) collet size, which is very restrictive, whereas JayCar units come with two and sometimes three precision-made brass collets, all with the ability to take a range of drill/tool-shank diameters, so in the meantime, my JayCar cheapies rock!
